Failed MOT 3 days ago

front Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)
Anti-lock braking system warning lamp indicates an ABS fault (3.4.1c)

Could be a cheap way into ///M ownership if you are handy with spanners/DA etc. If there is documents/invoices for the repairs back in 2009 then 6-7 years later with another 20k on it with one owner should put some minds at rest.

Cleaned the car this morning, less than amused (to be fair the lacquer peel was on the side skirt which I don't think he touched) :cry:

Those stones get everywhere .... didn't I spot a couple around the bonnet badge as well? :whistle:

Seriously - I think I would get the bumper wrapped with 3M to prevent that level.

You live and learn, had no idea it would chip so easily. On the bright side I can now get the DAS6 out without being scared of ruining a perfect finish

Quite shocked how much they put it up for though! :rofl:
My old Z4MC is still for sale at the main dealer I P/X'd it at (2 months and 5 days ago) - Price has been dropped from £23k to a much more realistic £20k. This car has loads changed under warranty in my ownership, if anyone wants to ask me any questions about it, fire me over a PM. Part of me wants to buy it back :?

Looks prepped a lot better now and seems in good nick.
Still a decent price for that mileage and list of options compared to some.

Loads for sale at the minute...

Demand has dwindled now as they aren't getting snapped up like they used too..

Suppose price, age and the onset of more desirable cars falling into the price category all have an effect

Coupe market seems pretty stagnant bang average cars with high mileage at high prices.

Been watching for the last 2-3 months most cars are still up for sale. Lots of privates asking as much as dealers too with no warranties.

Def gave mine away wish I'd hung on to it.
