The above is the standard blurb, since I've owned her the following has been added:
ZHP gearknob
Intravee with iphone/iPod Dock & cradle
Stubby aerial
Cruise control fitted
Alloys refurbed in Shadow chrome
Alloys hubcentric spaced to fill the arches ( makes the car look much more aggressive and handles superbly)
New sat nav discs
Black kidney grills fitted ( still got standard ones can be changed back in minutes)
Bought a 330i spacesaver spare, kept in the boot
Windbreak fitted
The tyres are Vredestein Sessanta NON runflats - she therefore drives correctly- I'll measure tread depths but approx 6mm ?

There are 4 spare alloys with winter tyres on them which will come with the car. It also has the rare BMW M Sport rear spoiler.
Taxed til end of Feb. New MOT last week
Mileage has just reached 65k today, she was serviced 9th May last year and next service due in just under 11,000 miles.
I love the car, but in the 12 months I've owned her I've been unable to drive her for 4 of those due to as yet undiagnosed knee problem. I'm ok at the moment but it's made me decide to bring forward the plan for an Auto, in the form of the new 981 PDK Boxster.
Any questions, please PM me
£9250.00
I'm no hurry to sell and mileage will slowly creep up.

As someone having done my fair share of market watching and research over the past couple of months, I would say that car really ought to fly off the shelf at that price. It looks an excellent buy to me considering what it has had done.

Cheers !
First pic was taken in Glen Etive, Scotland ( the Skyfall road) and the second was on the Black Mountain Pass in Wales. Black Mountain pass was good, but the Glen Etive road was a let down, much better driving roads in Scotland, north road out of Applecross for instance
Best not to post any videos, nothing to do with the driving but watching them back it's surprising how often I'm singing,... badly. Let's just say I won't be going on The Voice any time soon !

Firstly, tidy your garage up

Secondly, that's a nice looking, well specced Zed that I'm sure someone will get lots of pleasure from.

I'm quite intrigued by the bad singing now...

Good luck with the sale!

Firstly, tidy your garage up

Cheek ! That is the tidy version. Just had a new kitchen fitted, so garage was used as a workshop by the fitters and became a bit of a dumping ground, you should have seen it in the run up to christmas.
Z4 had to go live in my dads garage for 8 weeks.

Nice car, shame I'm not quite in a position to be buying again yet.

Been trying to decide what I'd like and the Z4 is another candidate.

 

[Wyldie85]

All the for sale threads are littered with 'not ready to buy yet' comments or if only this was in 6 months time..

Ok, well then there's no point in posting is there.

Surprised this hasn't had more interest. Looks great!

GLWTS!

 

[Seb.F]

I'm registering interest, my 'not quite ready' is about 3 weeks away. In the same vein, is there any use just posting 'hey good luck'?

OP, could I ask, where are you based?

Both me and the car are in Rayleigh, Essex.
I'm in no hurry to sell, but this could change in an instant if I see the car I want, but I doubt I will as I'm a bit fussy

I had a very nice 'scam' enquiry yesterday, and an offer of a part ex and a suggestion of a lower offer. Other than that is quiet.

I quite like the not ready to buy posts, better than me randomly posting 'bump' ,makes me look needy. I'm not needy.... tell me I'm not needy !!

I sympathise with the knee problem Timz, I have had 6 knee operations since 2006, the last one in November 2014.

Despite plenty of rest & physio the diagnosis is the Cartilage has not healed & has actually torn again.

I can't have any further surgery until May - 6 months gap needed to prevent infection.

I haven't driven the M car since October, but I'm worried I may have to sell with the persistent problems.
