Very steep at 19k. Keep your eye on it and chip them low around Easter

Thoughts on this 35is?

Post by sunnydays » Wed Jan 02, 2019 11:20 pm

So looking at the market still I can see:

2013 35is 20k miles - £21k
2010 35is 44k miles - £20k (No Idrive)

Do you guys still think it is a realistic ask for a circa £17k good condition 35is? (well optioned and less than 30k miles)

Thanks!

You can’t have your cake and hapenny though..

When there’s only 400+ cars out there compromise is the name of the game or you can “look” forever

Agreed, absolutely. What the OP wants is there, he's just gotta be really really patient or make a compromise somewhere. There'll probably be plenty come along as the new model surfaces but then it will be spring/summer and prices will be back on the up

Just noticed this one this morning on auto trader is tempting me to go look as I’m nearby with work. Looks ok in the pics.

You think so ? Not a lot of love for the G series out there,not even seen one in the flesh yet.

The E89 35iS is a belting car and all the car you would ever need really.So i think your typical Z4 owner will be holding on and not getting the new model.

It has been for sale for quite a while so maybe room for negotiation?

Sure I agree, but when I had my last 35is I managed to pick up a car with less than 30,000 miles on for less than £18k. So I am just struggling to comprehend how all of a sudden these cars are pulling over £20k for similar spec. Either way it looks like I will be playing a waiting game for the right car

This one has been for sale for months, is not shifting. I would imagine the red on red combo is putting people off as well as the high mileage.

The 35is is a fantastic car. I am not sure why people talk down the values. It's great looking and top of it's range. Low numbers especially if you want your favourite colour combo. When you see it, go all in and start trying to deal straight away. Don't wait for permission of fellow forum members.

8 yrs old and 60k miles is hardly high miles..

But get it if it doesn’t fit your brief..

If I was in the market and the red/red offended me I would bid him in the spuds and change the colour of the trim

Think your being very ambitious - as the cars get older the the very low mileage ones will go up on price as they become rarer. I think Z4M-2006 is right. 60k is not a high mileage for an 8 year old car. Your probably better off expecting to get something at 60k + for that money.

Question you have to ask yourself - is a low mileage more important than is a well maintained higher mileage model....
Z4 3.0l - gone
650i - gone
Z4 35is - gone
M4 - Current
