BMW Z3 - Not quite there

Ok, so what's the good points about the BMW Z3? Well, it's a sporty coupe that looks half decent and performs quite well. It always turns heads and there aren't actually that many of the road, so it keeps its rarity well. It always gets lots of attention when parked up, which is surprising for a car that's ten years old.

Bad points are that it's just nowhere near as good as the Z4. Sure, that is the replacement car, but it makes you realise how bad the Z3 was. There isn't enough room, isn't enough kit, isn't enough power and isn't enough technology. It needs a good kick up the rear end.

I'll be getting rid of it soon, and while its been a good car, it hasn't been great. It's let me down a few times on the motorway and repair costs have been scary.

If you want one just make sure it's a good one. If you can afford an older Z4, then get that.
