Gov car Road Tax bands changed shortly after they were 1st released, so a few got registered at a lower rate - bit like what happened in April 2017 when they again changed the rules, as too many cars were qualifying as exempt

Anyone know the history to this - £15k seems like good value for a Sepang coupe on this mileage?

Yes apparently it was re orded Cat C in May 2012 - was wondering if anyone could remember anything being posted on here.

Also does anyone have a link to the database that serves as a record of production volumes - done a search but no success?

Previous keepers number in eBay advert
Maybe worth giving them a call to see if they have any pictures of the damage or a report.
I seriously doubt it would be Cat C due to damaged wing and the Bronze paint being expensive :rofl:

That's an absolute bargain of a car.... :o Looks like it has been well serviced over the past few years as well.

The Remus boxes are worth £700 on the marketplace here.

I’d urge anyone spending 20K to be cautious unless you plan on keeping it long term (coupe or not).

That's a weird statement :? Anyone spending money on a car, might, just might lose a bit of money when you come to sell it.....shock horror. Spending £20k on a MC is probably one of the safest places to put your money when compared to other alternatives....A45, M240, S3, TTS, 987S, 370Z....which would perform better over 5 years?

The prices in UK are a little higher than in NZ. On top of that , there's only a handful of Z4M coupes registered in NZ. Our best chance is to import one and pay the extra. So £20k ends up being almost £25k by the time it's road legal here in NZ. But I wouldn't be going through all this trouble unless I really wanted a particular car. So short term is not on the cards, and in the direction modern cars are going, I would be inclined to keep the Z4m for a very long term.
