Description

The unusual Z1 is a rare modern classic, featuring dramatic electric doors that 'drop' into the sills; and this is an excellent, usable example of the 1990s roadster. Under the bonnet is a 2.5-litre straight-six engine, producing 168bhp, which is delivered to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox. The car's bold design was complemented by multi-link rear suspension, recyclable thermoplastic and GRP body panels, a flat undertray, and a roll bar integrated into the windscreen surround. The car is finished in Top Red with a replacement black roof over the original 'Camouflage' grey and green leather interior. It rides on the Z1-specific 16-inch alloy wheels, which were replaced in April 2021. The standard specification includes electrically operated windows and doors; with the latter even able to be lowered for driving. A Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 DAB radio has been fitted, which is in-keeping with the style of the vehicle, but brings modern conveniences such as Bluetooth connectivity, a DAB receiver, and USB/SD slots. A stainless-steel G-Power dual-exit exhaust has also been installed, which passes the TV testing process. The car is accompanied by numerous invoices, service history, and previous TV certificates, as well as the warning triangle and tool kit. The BMW Z1 was the first of the compact, modern roadsters from the Bavarian marque, and sported an innovative design that still draws crowds three decades on. With a smooth and powerful straight-six engine, involving manual gearbox and impressive handling, this compact sports car delivers true driving pleasure. It benefits from recent mechanical attention and low mileage, and is ready to relish on the new owner's favourite roads.

I visited a few garages while looking for a new car, and I’d happily recommend Kelan at Vector Motors and return to deal with him again. The whole process was a pleasure, which is rare. He was quick to arrange a viewing, knew the cars thoroughly, and answered all of our questions promptly. His communication was excellent throughout, especially when trading in my existing car and getting my new one ready so quickly. You can tell Vector Motors is busy, and for good reason. Kelan was brilliant from start to finish.

I've bought a few cars in my time, and there's usually a moment mid-negotiation where you start wondering if you're being upsold a haunted vehicle. None of that here. Vector Motors managed the rare feat of making car buying feel less like a hostage negotiation and more like, well, just buying a car from people who wanted me to actually enjoy the experience. Larry walked me through every detail of the Tesla Model 3 with genuine patience, no rushed sales pitch, no vague hand-waving over the bits I asked too many questions about. The car itself arrived in practically brand-new condition with four premium EV graded Hankook tyres, which for a used purchase felt like finding extra fish at the bottom of the chips. The paperwork, usually the part where your soul leaves your body, was smooth enough that I barely noticed it happening. They gave me a clear delivery date and stuck to it. On the day itself, they walked me through the car again and asked if I was completely happy before I drove off. I don't know what universe most dealers operate in, but in my experience that kind of check-in usually doesn't exist once the money's changed hands. This actually felt like they cared whether I left satisfied, not just whether I left. A small hiccup came up afterwards with the charging port. I reached out fully prepared for the usual back-and-forth of forms and excuses. Instead, Kevin and Olivia in customer service sorted it out without a question, told me to get it fixed, and reimbursed me promptly. No interrogation, no drama, all my carefully rehearsed prep drowned instantly, but in the best possible way. This isn't my first car purchase, but it's the first one that didn't feel dodgy or stressful at some point along the way. Instead it felt like the rare case of a dealership actually putting the customer first. Highly recommend Vector Motors, and special thanks to Larry, Kevin, and Olivia.

Fantastic Service from Start to Finish – Highly Recommend Vector Motors! I honestly couldn’t recommend Vector Motors highly enough! From start to finish, the service was absolutely fantastic. Dealing with Stuart was a pleasure — he was so easy to deal with, kept in great communication throughout, and made the whole process of buying a car for my daughter so smooth and stress-free. What really made the experience extra special was the lovely surprise of flowers and a teddy bear for my daughter when she collected her new car. Such a thoughtful touch that made the occasion even more memorable and showed just how much they care about their customers. It’s the little things that make such a big difference, and Vector Motors went above and beyond to make this a really special experience for us. Thank you, Stuart, and everyone at Vector Motors, for such excellent service. We couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a car. 🚗💐🧸
