Im struggling to find a decent one
Any help would be great and if you are willing to let your z4 go please dm me.

Thanks

There's many ropey ones about, but equally loads of good ones..
And they're getting to the age where they've probably had all the usual suspects sorted, brake lines, water pumps, gaskets. Most have also had suspension refreshes by now, too.
Dont be put off by mileage on the N52 engine. Buy on condition and maintenance over miles.
Watch for rear arch corrosion, that can be an expensive fix, but it's only cosmetic mostly so don't lose too much sleep over it.
Also check for boot lid corrosion, but most have been sorted now, too.
Good luck with your search.
This forum normally has some crackers for sale but I admit, it's been a little quiet recently.
Bide your time the right one will crop up.
Luke Zachary normally has some nice stock, too.

Hi, here's my coupe ad info pasted from fb z4 group.

2008 3.0 si Sport Manual

58,342 miles - Great Service History
16k, 19k, 35k, 42k, 47k, 53k, 56k. Fresh service this week

MOT'D last week - no advisories.

I'd say its in excellent condition. Not perfect but very very tidy inside and out. Upgraded Z4M wheels with great tyres. Original wheels with tyres available too. Upgraded weighted gear knob. Ceramic coated.

She's a beauty. Drives without fault. Took her round Northern Island Causeway Coastal route last summer and she lapped up the miles with ease. Owned by me for 2 years. Love it, and not fussed at all if it doesn't sell.

Based in The Lake District. Serious buyers only. You won't get it cheap so don't bother with silly offers please. I know its value.

Private plate not included

£12500

Thanks for looking.

Seen one on eBay getting tired of wedging my cup behind the passenger seat lol
My original cup holders done really feel trustworthy

Hi Zain, and welcome to the forum.

I'd echo what Meds said about mileage - there are a couple of people on here who have 200+K mile Coupes.

And as a serial Coupe owner IMHO they are well worth tracking down. The M-Sport seats that Sport models had as standard are very desirable, but some SE models had them fitted as an option.

Anyway good luck finding the right one.

The above one looks good. You may well need to be patient there are not many about currently

Iv found one he hasnt listed it hes open to selling its at 105k but theres an abs fault i think ithe pump or something needs changing and its only done 1k miles since 2024 cus he’s upgraded so its abit iffy but if i can get it for cheap and a grand on repairs i wouldnt mind.
