Good morning,
Unfortunately, after many on-off again discussions with Ms Hoya, I sadly have to list my 2000 Estoril Blue M Roadster for sale. We are expecting our 2nd child this coming Spring and thus the MR will no longer be driven as much, or at all . With a soon to be 3 year old and a new born, this car won’t see much love. Rather than have it languish in the garage, I’d rather have it to go to someone who will take care of her and drive it!
I purchased the M in April 2012 with approximately 34,500 miles on the odometer; it currently has 36,025 miles. I’ve only put around 1,500 miles on it because I spent 12-months in Afghanistan from Jul 12 to Jul 13. During that time, the M was on a battery tender and fired right-up upon my return without any issues.
The M is always garaged kept, meticulously taken care of, and bar-none one of the cleanest stock S52 MR you'll find.
The GOOD:
Entire cooling system changed in Dec 2012 (Radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses).
Estoril Blue paint is in excellent condition.
The convertible top is in excellent condition and NOT frayed at the rear window bead/trim.
The S52 engine pulls hard and is very clean.
There are NO mechanical issues.
There are NO sub-frame issues.
Seat belt guides are in excellent condition.
Seats do not slide.
Leather is in very good to excellent condition
Glove box does NOT sag.
Cold AC.
I have the owner’s manual, all keys, and the BMW First Aid Kit.
The BAD:
The M is 99% stock due to a ZHP shift knob and a brass radiator bleeder screw .
Minor driver-side outside seat bolster wear.
Minor curb rashes on 3 Roadster wheels.
Rear window is starting to fade (a common Z3 issue).
I’m asking $18,000!!! OBO.
I welcome any local members to check this vehicle out for the community, and any PPIs. You won’t be disappointed with this M Roadster.
Thanks for looking.
