Z4 Coupe Sport

Post by Zedebee » Mon Jan 09, 2023 7:28 pm

Zacharyluke has carved out a bit of a reputation (all good as far I know) as a specialist in these cars. The cars I have seen advertised have generally been rather expensive, but this one seems OK value for a one owner, Sport-spec coupe on 85k miles. Sure you could get the same cheaper from a private sale, but if you want the confidence of buying from a dealer, it’s probably worth it. The car itself looks good, although zacharyluke cars are always well prepped. Colour is not the best option for keeping clean! The Z4 coupe itself is a great car and is unlikely to disappoint. Good luck.

The guy has bought a good number of forum cars in the past , usually well presented , lower mileage ones in good nick :wink: drives them home ( trades from a 3 bed semi ) sticks £1500 -£3k on the ask & waits for the phone to ring.
Nothing wrong with his business plan , many on here have done similar . . . is the car worth the ask ? Not for me but then i'm not buying .

One advantage of buying from a dealer is we can p/x, although whether it's worth it can vary, but it does take the hassle of selling a cheap mundane car to the masses!

Been to view, looked lovely and got a decent price for the p/x, so put a deposit down. V-Check was clear, but when I've got home to do some proper quotes, the car is coming up as a Si SE, not a sport. Just waiting to hear back to see whats listed on the V5, but has anyone had this problem before?
How much of a premium would a Sport carry over an SE?

Not at all uncommon , get the VIN & do a check online for how it left the factory .

Just managed to check the vin, and it appears it is a genuine sport, it left the factory with the m sport suspension, and all the other correct bits. I was a little bit worried for a time!

Yes dont worry mine came up on Autotrader as an SE but when I checked it on the BMW VIN checker website it returned it as a sport. For some reason the database recorded quite a few Sports as SEs
