With thanks and very best wishes

Yes it's still for sale. I'm based in Redhill (Surrey) and around all weekend if you're local and want to view it.

It's even pretty local to me - I was over in Worcester Park earlier at my Mum's!

Good luck with the sale Henry.

Thanks Mr Tidy, must admit I've been having second thoughts about selling. Hence my reluctance to bump it up for the past few weeks... but if I get £8k then I think it's a fair price for me and the buyer is getting a cracking car.

I'm sure you got yourself a good car when you got yours, it looks good from what I've seen of it. The first Z4C I test drove was a Montego blue, but it didn't drive well and I had to let my head rule my heart. Was the right choice as this one came up a few weeks later.

Hi Mr Tidy. What's the spec on your car?

Thierry wrote: ↑Sun Oct 22, 2017 6:48 pm Not an easy decision to make but after six years of happy ownership it's time for me to scratch an itch that is owning a convertible. Children are on the horizon so if I don't make the switch now Mrs Thierry may not sign it off.

I'm based in Redhill, Surrey, and not interested in p/x. Please point out any information I miss in the advert, it's been a while since I last sold a car. Or pm me if you want to arrange a viewing or have any questions.

I'm looking for £8,500 £8,000.

Car has full service history, by BMW up to 46k miles and by Independent's since. The last service was an Inspection I at 76k miles (Mar-2016) with brake fluid changed on 79k miles (Jan-17). OBC showing as 9,000 miles to next service, but I'll be putting it in for an oil service in the next few weeks. It has recent brake discs and pads all around, and alloys were refurbished last year (properly, not a smart repair).

Only bad points are that the front bumper has a car-park scratch and the nearside headlight is a bit cloudy (some water got in to the unit when I replaced the indicator bulb and didn't put the cover back on properly ), shown in photos below. Otherwise I'd say it is in very good condition for an 11-year old 84k mile car.

I purchased the car from a forum member in Jan 2012, on 47k miles. I didn't think I'd ever own the same car for more than 3 years but it still feels special and makes me smile when I get in it. I might end up keeping her but thought I'd test the waters... hopefully it can give the next owner another six years of happy motoring
