Are BMW Z3s reliable?
I was reading some reviews and most people rated it as being reliable but there was like 1 person that said it was in the shop all the time. I am mainly interested in like the 2000 model, and was wondering what people would recommend if one was to buy a used one. A: agree with frosty p, i had a 2.0L on a 1999 t reg, great reliable car, plusses, goes like a rocket, great handling, but the chassis is from the e36 and so is the suspension so it is not great (buy one from 2001 onwards if you can affoard it) and of course the aforementioned oxygen sensor and waterpump/airlock problems are common to many bmw’s of that age. overall it was a great drive, never let me down once and was only ever in the garage for routine or proavtive maintainance. Get one you wont regret it.
