That looks lovely and clean I reckon.

I'm not bothered that it doesn't have sat nav, but I'd personally want cruise control though.

So if I had kept my M which I sold with 23600 on it, I would have made a good investment

Maybe clean, but even with so few miles it looks dear to me.

But Cruise is an easy retro-fit Lee.

£28k…. I’d be amazed if anyone fronts up anywhere near that for it.

Asking prices are one thing.

I remember paying £14.5k for mine with 38k miles on it back in 2012. So basically they haven't lost any money in the intervening years, plus the really nice ones have appreciated too.

I'm beginning to wish that I'd held onto my old one now in fairness! All my 370Z Roadster has done since I bought it 4.5 years ago...is lose money!

@tomscott
911 ( 997 ) values are already well south from where they reached 2 yrs ago & still falling .sub £20k gets a decent 05/06 90k car
Same story with 981 Caymans . £22k gets a 85k 14plate & only £320 yr ved
Can only imagine another 10% off these by Easter which won't help ZMvalues one bit .
Bear in mind this country as had mega low %rates & hasn't experienced any fiscal downturn for 15 - 16 yrs all very relevant to values of impractical weekend treat cars .
Can't ignore M2 M4 values either.
Right now 70 M4 sub 70k for sale on At under £25k
M2s 66 plate 75k around £21k -£22k
Both above circa £30k 12 months ago .


Buckle up , it could be bumpy ride 2024

Sounds like Mr Wilks is looking to come back to the fold.

Or maybe Bing did!

You do seem to prefer it though!

But everything comes at a price.

I'm pretty sure I read something recently suggesting he already had, but obviously not with an M that is going to tank in value apparently.

To be fair values of non-M/Alpina E85s are at the point where you can't really lose much whatever the future holds.

You don't need to worry about them tanking Mr T I can remember what you paid for yours

I did have a 2.5Si earlier in the year for 48 hrs but sold it to a neighbour .

Not even a faint chance of me buying another ZM

[abar121]

The Z4M just gets better and better when compared to modern shitboxes, which are getting less driver focused by the day.

Plenty of folks (including me), have come from modern Pork and up to date M cars, back to the zed. They just feel analogue and properly driver focused, unlike todays EPAS / Auto bloaters.

Look at values in Europe / ROW, which have shot up and are still holding. They are an incredible bargain in the UK.

People do pay good money for good cars. Two of the expensive Z4MCs have left Autotrader and have been sold. I bought one of them. The other went to a collector.

Ssh.

While I think I bagged a bargain I took a bit of a bath when I sold my 3.0Si.
