Description Interesting earlier 2.8 manual RHD example from 20 year ownership; in storage for the last 11 years and showing just 33,698Km Declared manufactured in 1998 and first registered in January 1999 this pretty first Generation BMW Z3 Roadster is finished in Arctic Silver with contrasting black Mohair roof and sits upon 17” five-spoke alloy wheels.
Under the bonnet, we find the 2.8-litre M52B28 inline six-cylinder petrol engine which develops 189bhp and 275Nm of torque driving the rear wheels here, via five-speed ZF S5-31 manual transmission offering rather brisk performance for such a small, lightweight package.
Inside, we find black leather seats with electric adjustment for the base, black carpets, dash and trim, electric windows, electric mirrors, electric soft-top, digital clock, traction control, two-stage heated seats, front fog lights and JVC radio/CD player.
The car shows just 33,698Km (although RHD with a MPH speedo) and has remained in storage for the last 12 years ...
