Nice car, but seems top dollar for one with not many toys (you might not want the toys,), but then again you can have a haggle, cant think he is getting many looking at the moment with this weather
Z4 Mineral Grey, 28i MSport Auto, lots of goodies
Z4 E85 3.0, gone but now with son :D

E3 NCK or as it will be DN06 JUY

From https://cazana.com/uk/car/E3NCK
This 2006 BMW Z4 Roadster Sport on numberplate E3 NCK was first registered on Friday 12th of May 2006 near Shrewsbury. At an estimated 64,049 miles, this car has done a lower than average number of miles for its age.

Check the MOT History here....
https://www.check-mot.service.gov.uk/


LOOK AT THE MILEAGE ON THE MOT!
It failed with more miles on it than when it passed on the same day.
Could just be an error on the system though and not been clocked!
Or it could be something really dodgy.

I'd certainly advise you to budget for at least another £1000 (maybe £1500) on top of whatever you pay.

Just in case it needs.....
Serviced (It will need serviced)
New Tyres
Wheel Refurb
Brakes - Discs / pads / sensors / brake hoses / brake fluid
Bodywork touched up
Everything needed to clean the car unless you've already got that.

Apart from that there are some cars that come up on here with a good service history etc.

You should maybe wait for a decent car to turn up here.

Be prepared to travel for the right car and don't settle for the first one you see.

I noticed that and have contacted the seller. New brakes, service in 11000 miles. Needs a couple of tyres.

Thanks for the comments.

Sorry, I meant that I had contacted them. Genuine error by MOT station, owner contacted DVLA to get it fixed. All good.

That's still expensive.

Why not. Just got for a pre facelift 3.0? Get much more for your buck. Low mileage isn't everything.

Yep no Z yet. On the hunt.
