Description
2000 BMW Z3 2.0L Serial number WBACL31050LG31832 French registration 13 000 / 18 000€ - 6-cylinder in-line engine - Manual gearbox - 118,500 kilometers - Stamped service history The story of the Z3 began in the early 1990s with the resurrection of a car segment that had been extinct since the 1970s: small, light and affordable front-engined convertibles. Although this model range originated in England at the end of the Second World War, it was Japan, and Mazda in particular, that had the idea of offering its MX-5 model in 1988. It was an immediate success, even today. Conceived on the solid base of the BMW E36, it's the convertible's design that stands out, offering a racy, slim and aggressive neo-retro line in compact proportions. The brand plays on its past, following in the footsteps of the legendary 507 model that later gave rise to the Z8 and Z4. As BMW wanted to sell its roadsters across the Atlantic, the production plant was located in South Carolina. Orders opened in 1996, first in North America, then in Europe, where dealerships were quickly overwhelmed and had to impose a 6-month waiting period before customers could get behind the wheel of the Z3. Engine-wise, the cabriolet was unveiled in a 4-cylinder version, then quickly moved on to increasingly powerful 6-cylinders, culminating in the Z3M and its 321 hp derived from the BMW M3 E36. The model we're presenting is a second-generation BMW Z3 (post-1999) delivered new to the SCHLESWIG dealership on September 15, 2000, with a 150hp 2.0L in-line 6-cylinder engine mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. This Z3 sports BMW's original black COSMOSSCHWARZ METALLIC paintwork, combined with a fresh red and black leather interior. The black soft top is also in good condition, with no tears or leaks, and the electric lift system works well. Mechanically, our road test showed the gearbox and engine to be in good working order, and the engine always seems to deliver its initial power. The anti-pollution warning light may come on occasionally, but this has no impact on the car's operation. The roadworthiness test is being carried out for corrosion of the right-hand rear wishbone, an easily replaceable part. We offer you the opportunity to drive away in a convertible with timeless lines, sporty handling and reasonable mileage. 2000 BMW Z3 2.0L Serial number WBACL31050LG31832 French registration 13 000 / 18 000€ - 6-cylinder in-line engine - Manual gearbox - 118,500 kilometres - Stamped service book The story of the Z3 began in the early 1990s with the resurrection of a car segment that had been extinct since the 1970s: small, light and affordable front-engined convertibles.
