“The BMW Z4 M Coupé is a car that’s chronically undervalued considering its rarity, style and driving experience,”

Prices were holding in the summer, but the winter downturn has been ridiculous. Maybe a £4-5k drop for some.

Best to just drive it. :driving:
2008 Z4MC: heavy wheels | crap suspension | skittish rear end | wobbly engine | not enough induction noise | underwhelming turn in | inconsistent braking | lardy battery | chubby steering wheel
2006 Z4 2.5si: gone

Ha, of course it'll no doubt immediately skyrocket just after I have sold mine in spring for £15k (*just as it did when I sold my CSL for £22k) :rofl:

Haha, all brilliant fails...but chassis No 1 on any Aston must be worth bonkers money!

What’s a decent 964 worth today....£40k..?

V8 645ci at £10k when 6 months later the same cars were £7500 :roll:, the snakes & ladders of the car world is nothing new but at least with all the experience you learn a little along the way :wink: incidentally , took a deposit on the 997 yesterday :o
