Noticed this one yesterday;

Seller is seeking £33k. Carbon black and unusual tan leather interior. 26k miles.

What do we think of this!

That's a nice colour combination, will be interesting to see how well it sells at that price.
Not so sure on this comment though "It is fully loaded with every factory option selected" I can see a couple of options missing.

Yikes, yup.

Spent my ‘Z4 gap years’ researching this very matter...
- checking out the colours, and, with a name like ‘Hell Sepang Bronze’ what colour could be more appropriate to a car with a little demon under the hood
- Rag or Tin top, toughest of them all. Those extra roof line curves are something else, where married to that arse believe moves it up a couple of notches in the classic coupe shape
- saying only a max 2 owner car would do... with red leather

... thought on a 10-13 year old car would never happen, as there’s some right dogs out there.

My secret, chat to an existing owner of the one u really want who doesn’t want to sell, be patient & strike when they have a weak moment ;@)

Strange service history as well. It went a long time without a service.

In my experience the number of owners can often flatter a logbook :wink: it doesn't necessarily mean a well kept or "mint" example & very often the opposite :cry:

Not exactly a big ask , Z4MR black with imola trim , 69k appears well kept though scant advert does no favours / £12995 seems a fair start point for the time of year + miles on clock
