Cheers for the various points chaps, dealer said pics are prior to all tyres being replaced and the odd bit of black trim on the passenger side has also been replaced. Even so, clues to how the previous owners treated it.

This looks a nice genuine example

Not the most desirable colour combo. Makes me think that the more desirable colour combos could do a bit better at this milage. Cheapest on AT under 80k.

This is my old car if anyone has any questions.
I though the colour comb was fantastic. :thumbsup:

I normally wouldn’t like Silver but this one looks so good. The suspension is lowered. Springs or coilovers? Which?

I would definitely buy this.

Just springs,
The car was in amazing condition, allot better then some I looked at with half the miles .
It really has nothing for the next owner to do.

Its not a negative what I mean is that its a safe combo. Some of the more elaborate colour combos are more desirable.

It's under tyred that's why it looks lower on top what's been done to the suspension

Thought this was worth a post for someone looking for a Z4MR at the lower end of the market.

2007
Ruby Black
3 Owners
98k
2 Keys
Paint, Roof & interior in good order
£10.5k (no offers)

Seller does state in need of TLC & for the price I imagine it might need a few parts...

Rod bearing shells, Tyres, Discs, Inspection II perhaps....

Steering rack joints need attention going by the MOT. If nothing more serious then it seems a reasonable buy? What do members think....

Facebook comments asking for more details but nothing from "Big Perm" yet. Would be interested to know what is required.

It may also have a poor or inconsistent service history but it's been well used on the road each year so who knows.

One would hope they at least will have the decency to wear a mask, cloak and wave a couple of Flintlocks around when spinning their schpeel on this one…. :roll:

There’s a cheap silver grey MC in the cars for sale section - possibly a way into an MC? I suspect the mileage could be against it though?

Hey peeps looking for some help on a couple of Coupes.
I sold my M Coupe over 2 years ago now and have had 2 F-types since and have recently picked up a new Supra. I'm looking at picking up another car as a bit of a project (essentially getting it mint) to go alongside the Supra and was thinking either an S2000 or a Z4MC, essentially something that won't depreciate much.

I've come accross 2 coupes and wonder if anyone has any info on them? I've checked their histories online but am hoping someone has either owned, seen or experienced these cars.

First is this black one from Motorhub - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... 2hx&page=1

I understand the dealer isn't too reputable, I can see the rear wheels are on the front and the exhaust is slightly lopsided, high mileage, lights seem abit shite, tatty seat, full history. Not many pics so can't see the tyres nor the quality of the body with it being black and overcast in the images.

Second is this one from Invictus Motors - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... 2hx&page=1

Dealer seems to be reviewed well. Seems to have been modified with a wrapped(?) roof and colourless M badges, Tyres seem like cheapies, some rusty screws under the bonnet, another lopsided exhaust, interior seems better.

If anyone has any info that would be awesome :D
