Value Query - May have to sell!

Post by Number Six » Tue Oct 23, 2018 10:45 pm

Evening all,

Thanks to my work situation changing I may be moving further afield and sadly my Z4 may be surplus to requirements as a result. With this in mind I'd be obliged if anyone could assist me on working out the value of the car for selling privately or to a dealer. Car details:

2009 35i manual in black with Coral Red extended Kansas leather, roughly 60K on the clock and style 294 wheels with Pilot Sport 4s, good tread all round
BMW warranty with about 11 months remaining, comprehensive coverage
Adaptive suspension
BMW Pro Nav, maps updated with 2017 version
Business sound system
Bluetooth phone
Extended storage
Completely debadged bar the roundels
Also have a spare set of half-used run flats for any masochists out there that prefer them to the Michelins!

Full BMW service history, last service a couple of weeks ago. All checks completed with no problems found.

The car has been looked after very well, fed only on super unleaded and wants for nothing. I'd have thought it should be a no-brainer for a potential purchaser due to the BMW warranty. It's by no means decided at this point but I would like a rough idea if any of you gents/ladies can advise. Cheers!

Shame you may have to sell but have a look on all the car ad sites and see what’s available at your year and spec, although there aren’t many 35i’s at the moment admittedly. Also put the reg into webuyanycar and I reckon add roughly 2.5k at your cars age and spec for a private sale with a view to shifting it at 2k off their price.

GLWTS. :thumbsup:

Had a quick flit around the valuations, Autotrader reckon about 10k private and WeMugAllOurCustomers offered about 7.5K - ouch!

There you go then, 2.5k under is about right for WBAC, to be fair you don’t have to sell to them, they’re not pointing a gun at anyone. Pop an ad on here and see what happens. :thumbsup:

I wish it looked like that at the moment! I reckon I'd be happy with 11-12 for a private sale, 10ish from a dealer. I don't want to sell it but if I move further away from the UK there'll be no point keeping it. Appreciate the comments so far chaps!
