Are you interested in buying a used sports car? Then the BMW Z3 is a popular option. In total, there are 149 used BMW Z3s for sale on AutoUncle in the UK sourced from numerous dealership websites and online marketplaces.
The price of a used BMW Z3 ranges from £2,490 for the cheapest model to £9,950 for the latest and most well-equipped model.
A pre-owned BMW Z3 is being offered at different prices based on primarily five factors: the year, engine capacity and power, the car's fuel economy, car mileage together with trim level.
For example, a newer model with low mileage or a premium version equipped with a high-performance engine generally demands a higher price than a used model with many kilometres on the odometer and in a simple equipment variant.
The most popular equipment variants for the BMW Z3 are:
When assessing the price tags of second-hand BMW Z3 cars, it is important that you exclusively compare with the deals of cars with the same engine and equipment. If not, you might reach a wrong decision on which car to acquire.
The primary energy source for the BMW Z3 is petrol.
Available fuel options for BMW Z3:
We highly recommend thinking about your driving habits before deciding between the different fuel types. In an average week, how much distance do you drive? Are you more inclined to take short drives or to go on longer journeys?
Electric cars, plug-in hybrids and petrol are great for short distances. For long daily driving, electric cars are a strong choice if you can charge. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. Diesel cars can still make sense if you drive very far and don't have access to charging. Keep in mind that diesel engines with high emissions have been banned from entering cities in a range of countries.
With the cabriolet being the more popular choice, the BMW Z3 is offered in both cabriolet and sedan body styles in the UK. Cabrios and convertibles give the driving experience a new dimension. Thanks to their excellent hoods and weather gear, most models are fit for year-round use these days. Thickener is applied underneath the car to strengthen the chassis in lieu of a roof, which means that convertibles have a tendency to be heavier than normal cars.
There are multiple similar cars to the BMW Z3.
