• Legendary 4.9L V8 M5-motor

Some cars stay desirable because of how they look, others because of how they drive. The BMW Z8 has always managed to do both. With its aluminum spaceframe, the S62 V8 and a six-speed manual, it represents one of BMW’s most focused engineering statements of its era, wrapped in a design that has aged exceptionally well.

This example was delivered new in the United Kingdom in August 2001 and has spent its life in the hands of owners who clearly understood how to care for a car of this calibre. It is finished in Titanium Silver with a “Sport Red & Black” interior, a combination long appreciated by Z8 enthusiasts for its clean, timeless look. What sets this Z8 apart is the quality and completeness of its history. The car comes with all original books and manuals, a fully stamped service book, a complete folder of BMW dealer invoices, multiple UK V5C registration documents, HPI reports and nearly every MOT certificate from new. The mileage, now 81,850 km, is documented throughout the entire file with consistent entries year after year. Belgian import and registration documents are also present, making registration within Europe straightforward. The maintenance record speaks for itself. From early running-in services to major dealer work, everything has been carried out at the right time and always by specialists. Important items such as the cooling system, electronic modules, brake hydraulics, VANOS-related components and the electric fan unit have all been addressed with proper documentation. The clutch has already been replaced, and the car has recently been fitted with new tyres completing its ready-to-enjoy condition.
In terms of presentation, this Z8 stands exactly where it should. The Titanium Silver bodywork is clean, straight and well cared for. The “Sport Red & Black” interior is tidy, correctly detailed and shows only light, honest signs of use, fully in line with the mileage. Mechanically, the car performs exactly as expected: the S62 is smooth and responsive, the manual gearbox operates confidently and the chassis feels tight and composed. It is immediately clear that this is a car that has never been neglected or allowed to deteriorate.

For buyers who value documentation, correctness and mechanical quality, this Z8 is a very strong example. It offers complete provenance, proven long-term care and a specification that suits the model perfectly. A genuinely compelling opportunity for anyone looking for a Z8 that can be enjoyed with confidence today and more appreciated long-term.
