Tested
“This BMW Z3 M Cabriolet from 1997 is a compact and characterful M-car with a distinct 90s profile, low driving position and open sports car character. An interesting enthusiast object for those seeking a more analog and unusual BMW with classic M-feel. Inspected until November 2027.”
The Tested range is a wide selection of used cars which, depending on their age and mileage, may require some maintenance and servicing, as well as possible repairs. However, each vehicle is unique with its own history, so it is important to read the description and any comments in our test to understand its condition.
What do we notice in the Kvd test?
