Z3M Roadster Imola Red

[Ian J Marsh]

I am in the process of purchasing a Z3M Roadster which I should be picking up in couple of weeks. Having spent ages looking at different cars I decided on the Z3M after a long conversation with an independent BMW garage who talked me into buying one.

We had a black Z3 2.8 in the family so I know the cars quiet well, and I wanted a car which would hopefully retain its value and maybe increase slightly.

The car is Imola Red, which is increasingly rare in the UK anyway, not sure how many are left now?
The car has a hardtop and will have a new black hood fitted next week. I shall be using at weekends and just for fun.

Look forward to seeing some other examples and chatting to the owners.

Hi Ian,

Excellent choice, can I ask is it an S50 or S54 because if it is an S54 it is rare indeedn with only 3 in this country. I know where two of them are but the third popped up for sale 18 months or so ago for sale at a second hand car dealers and promptly disappeared again never to be heard of again so would be really good if you have stumbled on this one. That is not to say that the S50's in Imola are rare too and especially in that colour will command a good premium to obtain one.

Please please post some pictures up as I think the Imola ///M's are really special.
