Hi All, my dad is considering selling his above vehicle that he has owned since new.
As he is useless with computers I am seeking advice and asking is this forum a good place to sell the vehicle or is there other places to sell it that you would recommend.
I would be grateful for any genuine advice re selling this Z4 and/or what is a fair price for a great car.

Advice sought re Z4 sale
Hi, while this sounds like a decent low mileage example, however, as you have placed posted in the for sale section forum rules dictate that you must put a price in the advert.
Also some pics will go a long way to helping with advice but the obvious is Autotrader / Ebay to advertise the car

Welcome
Car sounds lovely, with some uncommon-ish options and a crazy mileage.
Definitely worth a decent advert here, I'll always recommend Auto Trader and Ebay on top.
Price wise, it's usually a good idea to stick it into 'We Buy Any Car' and 'Wizzle' to see what comes up (with that mileage you may well get some interested dealers bidding the price up), then a quick check through similar cars on Auto Trader and make a decision based on that. Start high, with a view to dropping later or cutting a deal (though bear in mind we're at the back end of the summer). Auto Trader will give you an estimate too.
Depending on manual/auto (Edit: and iDrive) I'd imagine £13k+ with those miles. Good luck! (and kudos for helping your Dad out)

Hi thanks for your advice, my dad has no idea what a fair price is for his car as it has very low miles and immaculate condition.
I will try to attend him over the next week and take/ post photos of the car. I live some distance away from him and there is no chance that he would know how post photos on this forum.

Again thanks for the super swift advice.
I will do the research you suggested and get the photos posted.
As my dad hasn’t sold a car privately in many years it is a big deal for him.

I'm sure that in this instance you will be forgiven for not putting a price in? But the mods may move this to a different section for now, just to save upsetting any OCD members.
Hopefully you will find all the info you need if you spend a little time browsing through the recent sales on the forum as a starting point.
May be worth asking if there are any kind members near your dad who would consider helping him out with photos etc? You never know.
Whereabouts is he?
Of course the logical course of action is to tell him you've researched it and sadly the bottom has dropped out of the market.
Being dutiful and loving, you will help by buying it from him..............

Hello and welcome, as mentioned run some valuations through to see what comes back. Even share your findings if looking for further advice and guidance.
The one that sprung immediately to mind after reading your post was viewtopic.php?f=41&t=129667&hilit=13k the first page sort of mirrors your query.
The models and age are slightly different but the additional options and lower mileage probably put them pretty much on par give or take.
Shame your dad is having to get rid but for helping your dad. The comment about seeing if any members are local to your dad and could help out is a good shout.
