Z4 - 1st gen E85/E86 - Mileage Poll

[greg81]

So, I guess by looking at this pole im am getting one or two things... Please shed some light for me if you can....

These cars aren't making it much past 120k miles? or Just not that many people with high mileage on these cars?

This is my concern here as an owner of an 03 sport with 89k on the clock...

THX!!

At an average of 9k per year these cars are only beginning to hit 126k on average so I'd say it's about right. Nothing to worry about

[greg81]

I can't count. It's 15 years now

[Bing]

I'm clinging on to the 40-50k section, but will be over it later in the year

I am clinging to the 60-70 section but will be over it by 5th Feb

It’s fairly common with all sports cars to have lower mileage than other types of vehicles

Equally they tend to have higher numbers of owners

By nature they are a compromise and often bought as second cars or toys and owners often move on to something else or their lives change and they need something different

Hence many with much lower than average mileage’s

125k for me here, 53 plate 3.0.
Bought on 106k around 2 years ago, used daily!

[idej_z4]

22k when bought, now 34k, used as a DD until last week when I picked up a diesel civic to save the Z miles for ones that don’t involve being sat on the M62 twice a day!

[Marlon]

A very symmetrical pattern peaking with the 70 - 80k mileage band, lots of votes too

[Rusky]

Just turned 45k on my 2004

[Vornwend]

Just ticked over 28,000 on my 2004 - need to get that number moving up faster

You’ve nearly put 50k on it.

[grumps]

Edging towards 55k on mine, currently DD until April. just short of 16k in 5 years.

[Silverzedtom]

30-40 here This will be an interesting one

That comment reminds me of Ricky Gervais hosting the Golden Globes:
