I have had a change of plan (potentially) and may now be back toward a 2 seat roadster rather than a 4 seat convertible.

Does anybody have and thoughts on this car?

It does not have sat nav, cruise or xenons but everything else is present and correct including Bridgestone Potenzas (RFT not standard tyres but there you go) and seems to be in good condition from what I have discussed on the phone.

The interior has grown on me - I have not seen it in the flesh yet but it does break up the black on black of a 'standard' car!

The wheels are standard issue for the facelift E85 and look similar to the MV2 from the E46. I much prefer them to the 5 spoke or CSL type but everybody has their own preference.

It is really interesting to hear different views on these things. I think the MV2s look much more modern than the 108s etc. My last Z4 (pre facelift) had 5 spokes but from a 1 series that actually worked well.

Thank you for the comments so far. To attempt to avoid any flaring up on this particular post I should add some amplification.

I have owned a Z4 before but the pre facelift version so not totally similar. I would welcome any general comments (check drain holes and roof motor) as well as other comments such as 'I have seem that colour combo and it actually looks great / crap' etc.

Some of the comments may be viewed as pedantic but it is fine with me!

Surely everybody likes a straight 6?

You make a fair point and you are certainly welcome to it. However, what started as a thread on a particular car now had the risk of turning into another petrol vs diesel debate (please no!).

Back to the thread - I think I may have a look at this one, a 2004 E46 M3 and 2004 E46 330ci tomorrow in convertible flavour as I just don't know.
