Description

- Green leather dashboard with green carpet, only available with this body colour.

The Z1 is the first in BMW's Z series (initial of the word Zukunft, which means 'future' in German), a series distinguished by sporty styling and performance and an exclusively two-seater roadster-type layout, to which the Z3, Z4 and Z8 also belong. Furthermore, the Z1 can be driven with the doors down, like a true summer sports car.

This car, originally delivered in Germany, was later sold to a Z1 enthusiast who used it for international outings and rallies and kept it in excellent condition.

The bodywork is in the splendid original 'Green Metallic' colour and looks beautiful in the sun with its reflections.
It is shiny and in beautiful condition, a detailing treatment has just been completed, there are no signs of rust as it is made of composite material.

The interior is exclusive: only the Green Metallic could have Green coloured carpet and leather dashboard instead of the usual Grey, making this car very exclusive. The hood was replaced a few years ago and is excellent, it opens and closes smoothly and keeps the water out.

Mechanically, over €25,000 of documented invoices are included with the car, which is in good working order. A technical inspection has just been passed with no faults detected and is valid until June 2025, and a Service and Inspection in the Official BMW Italy Dealership has just been completed. The car is ready to be used.

The underbody is in sound original condition, it has never been in an accident and is roadworthy (see photos).

A very rare BMW roadster that is increasingly difficult to find because it is highly prized by collectors: it is increasingly difficult to find specimens with their service booklet, original and with expensive maintenance already carried out over time; it is an excellent investment.
