For sale is my BMW Z4 3.0i Roadster E85 in Sterling Grey Metallic, first owner.
I purchased the vehicle new and have owned it continuously since its first registration on 15 April 2005. The Z4 was mainly used as a cherished vehicle in good weather, regularly maintained and carefully kept in good mechanical condition.

MOT/emissions inspection renewed until 08/2028 – no defects identified. During the main inspection in August 2026, the inspector particularly highlighted the very good condition of the suspension, chassis and braking system.
Equipment
Black “Oregon” leather, M Sport seats, M Sport suspension, multifunction steering wheel with shift paddles, xenon headlights, automatic climate control, heated seats, BMW navigation system, HiFi Professional sound system, alarm system, Chrome-Line interior, fully automatic convertible-top operation, automatically dimming rear-view mirror, strut brace, BMW alloy wheels and original BMW travel cases for the trunk lid with matching inner bag.
Maintenance and upkeep
The service booklet documents a total of six inspections carried out according to the onboard computer’s requirements, including servicing from before 2019.
In 2019, the hydraulic unit for the convertible-top operation was replaced at a BMW authorized dealer.
At 126,904 km, the suspension was extensively refurbished: both front strut assemblies and both rear shock absorbers, including the associated bearing, protective and mounting components, were replaced.
In 2021, the starter motor was replaced.
In 2022, at around 134,000 km, the valve cover was removed and refitted and sealed with a new profile gasket. During the same period, the rear brake discs and brake pads, including wear sensors, were replaced. The serpentine belt, third brake light and driver’s-side seat belt guide were also replaced.
At 137,900 km, two Bridgestone Potenza front tires (225/40 R18 92Y, run-flat) were replaced.
In 2025, the complete original BMW fabric convertible top was replaced for €3,420; invoice available.
At approximately 142,200 km, BMW Inspection II was carried out. In addition, the oil pan was resealed, control arm mounts were replaced and the brake fluid was renewed.
In August 2026, the MOT/emissions inspection was renewed as a precaution for the sale and passed with no defects identified; valid until 08/2028.
The maintenance and vehicle history are extensively documented. The original purchase documents and service booklet from before 2019 are available; older individual invoices were not retained at the time as part of a document review. No extraordinary repairs were required during that period.
Condition
Overall, the BMW is in an exceptionally well-maintained original condition. Some age-appropriate signs of use are naturally unavoidable on a vehicle over 20 years old.
The rotary push controller for the navigation system works in principle, but does not always respond perfectly. The navigation and HiFi Professional systems work flawlessly.
The interior and engine bay are in very well-maintained condition. The vehicle was regularly cared for and professionally detailed every year using paint-friendly methods. There is no maintenance backlog known to me.
Price: €17,500 negotiable
Viewing and test drive possible by arrangement. The extensive maintenance and vehicle documentation can be provided in advance to serious prospective buyers.
