How much space is there in the back of a Z3 M Coupe?
Ok, before you all start saying who in the hell would care how much space there is in the back of such an awesome performing car..... Let me explain myself.
The old man is at a stage in his life where he can now afford to ditch the 330 Ci in favour of buying another little toy (Already had and sold a caterham!).
Basically he needs some sort of space so he and the Ma can drive places with their bags in the back but also have enough power to bring a little smile to his face on those cold sunday mornings.
The 'Beast' as we like to call it looks sounds and (aparantly) performs like a dream but it is possible that there is going to be little to no real space for luggage. Any owners that could testify one way or another would be really usefull as we haven't been able to find one to go and have a look at.
In case you are wondering what my interest in this is.... well it is purely that what ever he buys I get insured on.
Please please please please please please. ;-)

210 litres, according to TG magazine, back in Sep 2002.

Other Z3 have 165 litres.

Depends how much luggage you have and how big your cases are. Obviously it's quite small but there's more than enough space for a few bags full of clothes.

For the type of car, it is very practical! It has a dividing net between the hatch area and the seats that can be raised, allowing you to pack up to the ceiling. It is more than spacious enough for two fairly big soft bags, and I even heard of people that managed to get a golf set in there.

Miss mine dearly, and can only recommend it.

Edit: Have a look at my website, www.geocities.com/bmw_z3_m_coupe , in particular this picture: www.geocities.com/bmw_z3_m_coupe/100_0577.JPG
