Don’t think the recall applies to E85/86 models ( Z4)
Press reports stated:

The vehicles included are the BMW 1 Series, the 3 Series, the Z4 and X1 petrol and diesel models made between March 2007 and August 2011. These cars may be affected by an electrical fault which could cause the engine to cut out completely while on the road.

DVLA check for recalls is not always accurate. The best way to 100% check is a visit to your local dealer.
Yep, done that .. E85 uses a different connector and is not affected
Thanks for your input.

The press release was very poorly worded.

We were told no parts available and if problem urgent ring BMW Emergency Services.
