Z4 Coupe - Found One!
Looking for a Z4 coupe main requirements are;
HPI clear
Would consider most colour combinations, but favourite is the grey with cream leather.
Manual
Comprehensive service history - I appreciate that finding one serviced completely in line with specified service schedule is a little unlikely.
Budget depends on condition and mileage, but not looking for an ultra low mileage and high priced example.
I’m in Bristol, but will travel for the right car.... potentially a long way! I have flown to Scotland twice to buy cars and drive them home!!
Many thanks.

Z4 Coupe
I know you've said you want a manual, and call me biased, but an auto with paddles really is the best of both worlds. And the sport button actually makes a difference on an auto...
Mine is sort of up for (reluctant) sale if you're interested: viewtopic.php?f=41&t=107951 but good luck with your search either way

Hi, thanks for the heads up, I had a Golf Ediiton 30 with Paddles, and enjoyed that, but it’s DSG and ‘technically’ not a traditional auto. Isn’t the auto on the coupe a traditional auto, with paddles?wiggy001 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2019 11:00 pm I know you've said you want a manual, and call me biased, but an auto with paddles really is the best of both worlds.

Believe me, I’d have it in heart beat, but beyond my means at the moment as completing on new house purchase at the end of the month... builder stil building it.Timmyboybunter wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2019 2:23 pm Grab that yellow coupe that had just been advertised here. Stunning looking car.
I toyed with buying it, and offering the wheels for standard ones in PX to get my costs down at bit... but might end up not being able to sell the wheels etc.

Ok, so decided to up my budget a (fair) bit I had a self imposed limit of £8k, which I then chose to ignoreTrue-Blue wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2019 2:30 pmBelieve me, I’d have it in heart beat, but beyond my means at the moment as completing on new house purchase at the end of the month... builder stil building it.Timmyboybunter wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2019 2:23 pm Grab that yellow coupe that had just been advertised here.

To be fair my lovely Mrs encouraged me to spend more if it meant getting a really unique, top notch car.

Hmmm, I think your Mrs and my wife need to talk
So, back to the yellow one then.
I'll assume your Mrs's encouragement doesn't stretch as far as an M?

Yes, congratulations to True-Blue (and his Mrs).
But is there a user name change in the offing - maybe Mellow-Yellow?

Er,...No!
But the Yellow one is gorgeous. I know the colour’s not for everyone, but it’s rare and I love it.
