What's it like to drive a Z1? The difference. Beyond the fact that the Z1 is a BMW 325 e30, it embodies, as its acronym suggests, 'Zukunft' - the future. It's clear that this little convertible has done a marvellous job of promoting the future of the Bavarian brand, thanks in particular to its concept of retractable doors. This Z1 may not be synonymous with power, but it's the perfect youngtimer for your next summer outing.
