Love the Interlagos blue and the rare caramel leather (biased on that one!).
1 owner with 49k and full bmw service history!

That looks like it's in stunning condition. I'm not fussed on the interior but a lovely example

No, that does look like a good price for a low mileage example.

Although I'm not a fan of the interiro either - the first MC I Looked at was Interlagos with Sepang leather and that was stunning!

Looks a like a nice low mileage example

Sitting at £14K just now, which doesn't seem dear with less than a day to go!

But I'm pretty sure the Ms have a ZF gearbox, unlike most other BMWs. And the service details don't mention valve clearances, although knowing Will at TWG they may well have been done.

Seems like a bit of a bargain if it goes for under 15k to be honest

Getrag gearboxes on Z4M and Z4 chassis.

Nope, M's have a ZF gearbox, not that it really matters.

You wonder why the left luggage panel's been out

bang on - ZF gearbox in the M. It's actually stronger than the Getrag in the E46 M3 out of interest.... again not that it matters particularly!

[TomK]

It's the (essentially) same gearbox that is also used in the non M z4, also used amongst others in cars like the mighty 118d
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZF_S6-37_transmission

The e46M3 does use a getrag box, I believe it's not possible to fit that in the z4 chassis, happy to be corrected though.

Which gearbox is fitted to the manual E92 M3?

ZF-S6-53 I believe.....

It had Bilsteins fitted a few years ago, so maybe the trim didn't go back right!

Just noticed it's wearing over-sized tyres for some reason, although I suppose they will protect the rims better.

Anyway 3 bids in the last minute, and it looks like it made £14,860, so with 6% commission that's £15,750. Still the Eventuri intake is probably worth £500!
