Returning to Z4Ms - that one at Hatfields looks like a 'doer upper'. The front bumper appears to have been cracked and bodged between the grilles, the high level brake light is cracked (not a big problem), but it is lacking the leather dash that most people want. Still cheap though, but probably for a reason.
My sincere apologies for one post regarding a different make in the interests of discussion of sports car prices, I’ll make a note to make sure I’m blinkered next time.... :roll:

This Coupe appeared today - cheapest I've seen, but then it has done some miles! Although it's said to be a one owner and looks pretty clean in the photos.

Maybe the selling dealer did it - they've posted the photo inside the boot upside-down!

Quite like the look of it. Is that a Varis duck tail? Don't think so. Wonder what the weight is? A lot of race car for not a lot of real money. Pity no one can watch it race at the moment, unless you have the circuit on CCTV. Watched quite a bit of Goodwood last weekend on a link. Quite sad seeing the circuit devoid of spectators.

Just seen this on Pistonheads. One of only nine roadsters in Sepang Bronze, I think.

If you weren't going to drive that more than 2k a year, then I reckon it's a pretty good place to put your money. Won't be many left under 30k miles now.

Just adds more money to the hugely inflated price.
