Clutch and flywheel mate - shat itself whilst on track in Dijon. Had to get the car repatriated from France to RBM. Was a mission, but Ross and the boys got the job done. Day after the work was done I took it to the Ring and had a good laugh.
What were you doing down there?

What do we think is happening with the market now? Seems to be quite a few cars around which aren't selling.
I did see this pop up at a specialist near me looks to have an aftermarket exhaust which is a positive and has xenon's and PDC but that seems to be where the spec stops unfortunately

Considering this dealer is usually at the higher end of the market id guesstimate that prices are coming down pretty quickly?
I am still after a coupe and watching the market weekly to see what is about.

The Z4 market has always been a niche market imo and as a result is relatively slow (when compared to other marques).hopz121 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 02, 2022 1:49 pm What do we think is happening with the market now? Seems to be quite a few cars around which aren't selling.

Taking the current economic situation into consideration, it is clear that the market has slowed even further which has already resulted in the market softening. People with ‘good cars’ will see this and will most probably hold off putting their car up for sale until Spring next year, which would probably be a better time to buy (due to more choice). Unless the right car comes up at the right price I suggest putting your purchase on hold until such a time comes.

Prices for 2 seaters always used to drop off around this time of year with Christmas and bad weather on the horizon, then pick up the next Spring.
That was definitely still the case in 2019/2020 when I bought my MC and then was selling my 3.0Si.
But for some reason it didn't seem to happen the next 2 years although it looks like it is now, especially with petrol prices and general inflation.
It'll be interesting to see what happens next Spring.

A bit of a resurrection but I stumbled across this yesterday while I was looking for something else!
https://www.swva.co.uk/classic-car/bmw- ... auto-2007/
Even for an Auto SE and with a 10% buyer's premium (inc VAT) that didn't look dear to me.

That one is advertised on here too:- viewtopic.php?t=144552
I suppose there are 2 ways of looking at it. It's either pricey for a 17 year old Z4, or it's a bargain for a 16,000 mile car that had a list price of £33,600!

Those tyres aren't shouting £23K car (though it does look very nice), presumably the orginals perished after sitting around for most of the last 17 years… the driver's seat doesn't look to have weathered the years as well as you might expect for that money and mileage either.

Spotted this on Gumtree. It's a rare colour but the asking price seems a bit on the side? I was thinking of going to have a look but it's a couple of hours away from me.
