True enough but we had fun driving & wrenching on it. I'm afraid it would have spent most of the time just sitting. And when that happens here the rodents and elements creep in. If I get another later it will likely be a 35 model...
The new car is another avenue in the same adventure. Like your Lotus you know how visceral that kind of driving can be :thumbsup:

Tire Rack - reasonably priced too. I liked the easy to clean and near color match. :thumbsup:

Well priced (2011 74k £13650) 35is in nice colour combo here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-35i-s ... SwB~BfW5hX
Be nice to know if any of the known fails (injectors / hpfp ) have been covered but its not exactly pricey as it stands

I think you are right, I am always suspicious when the advertiser only asked to be contacted by email and no phone number given.

somethings fishy, using autotrader valuer or gov mot history there's nothing under that reg, when you use the other given in the ad it comes up with something completely different.. everything on his other ads looks too cheap too, 16 plate ford ranger pick up for 7.5k? scammer ad methinks

Seems legit to me :? Other vehicles for sale under "other items" & a quick google search reveals JTvehicles High Wycombe is active https://www.jtvehicles.co.uk/

90% of the website photos are all taken at the same spot, all the pics in his other items for sale are in different locations, none of the cars in other items are on his website, scammer is simply using the legit company details as a front :thumbsup:

When I saw that I was either waiting for a Cat S/C, 150k miles, engine or roof fault or one of those scam ads with one picture and the typed email only contact. Surely got to be a scam at that price.

Onto another, marmite I know, but I think this is a lovely looking car and not too badly priced

    G29 M40i Thundernight with Ivory interior, all option packs (here for a while, hopefully :oops:)

    Well its got the right interior, defo a marmite colour though, i just think brown doesn't belong on a car, always makes me think of those 1970s Austin Allegro :D
