About this car

The BMW Z1 is one of the company's more experimental road cars: a two-seat roadster with a galvanised steel chassis, removable plastic body panels and doors that drop down into the sills. This 1990 car is finished in Top Red with a dark grey Nubuck camouflage leather interior, and uses the 2.5-litre straight-six with a five-speed manual gearbox.

It shows 24,807 miles and has had four previous owners. The page says it was supplied new through Ryedale BMW and was then kept in storage from 2011 to 2022. It was recommissioned by Classic Heroes, with work covering mechanical, braking, cooling and servicing items.

The history file includes the original invoice, MOT certificates, tax discs and service and repair invoices. The car has 16-inch alloy wheels, red Z1 floor mats and a wind deflector. The dealer says only around 75 Z1s were sold in the UK.
