Wholeheartedly agree with mr wilks - the market, may well Seasonably turn in short relative time.

Suspect, an ask of circa £14,995 would generate greater interest OP.. :driving:
...Obviously, depends how keen you are to get the pretty & cared for Z4MR moved onwards :?

Best of luck with the sale and let's hope, she finds a new home soon..

Cheers :thumbsup:

OP you have a great example of a fantastic car in the best colour for an M IMHO.

I don't want to seem negative but you might want to read all of this page of a thread from the beginning of the year:- viewtopic.php?f=9&t=73487&p=1719713&hil ... e#p1719713

If you want/need to sell your car soonish you may be running out of time because the weather is going to change soon, and last year prices took a big winter dive!

Which was handy when I bought my MC in December, but not so handy when I was selling my 3.0Si in January. :lol:
Coupes because stunning!

You can chip away at the ask in £150 drops for the next 3 months but if you really want it gone then cut to the chase would be my best advice .
Its clearly a lovely car , miles are good but its now 2 months listed & no buyer which should tell you all you need to know :cry:
Many ZMRs have been sold swiftly over the summer but the days are now shortening fast , the CV19 doom & gloom is worsening & as much as this may sting id seriously consider listing at £14750 here & Ebay with £13500-£14500 actually achievable , fastforward 3 months you may well struggle to see £12500 , jmo of course , i could be way off the mark :(

Well-meaning though you are, wouldn’t your advice be better sent to the OP in a private message, rather than putting doubt into the mind of a potential purchaser?

I see your point but i don't see any comments made on a forum will alter a cars potential demand or current worth :? if it was worth more it would have sold already wouldn't it ?
I would also concentrate my effort with the sale elsewhere , contrary to some beliefs the forum is only a very small window for potential buyers , Ebay is always my first base when it comes to selling a car & i've yet to need a repeat advert on any car i've listed there with 90% of them gone within 2 weeks.
That said if the OP wants any comments posted removed id be happy to :thumbsup:

Carry on Mr Wilks - this forum should benefit majority and he educational.

If you want to get a 'high' price with no commentary there's other places.. This has been on AT for weeks too.

Brave person hanging out with winter and C19 coming fast again.

Whats's folks opinion on the running in service at 990 miles?

I know the recommended is 1200 miles with a bit of grace afterwards but what about earlier?

my gut feel is its fine as its only 210 miles.

That is a great looking car, I love them in red and nearly pulled the trigger on one last year.

Assume the black bit on the lower front bumper is a wrap?

Its painted mate, it was done when i brought the car, handy as i like the look of it and would have probably got it done myself as it goes nice with the black kidney grills, i think it makes the front end look more aggressive.

Yes I'm a fan too - really suits some cars breaking up the front just a bit.
