Got to be one of the best colour combos there are… if this was a coupe I’d be going mad for it!
Beautiful car, good luck with the sale 👍

Cheers, this is why I'm so reluctant to sell. needs must, I've bought an f31 and since then I haven't touched the Z so I'd rather it went to a new home.
 
Hate to say it as its a fine example with a lovely interior but it looks overpriced in the current market imho
 
Stunning interior, are you sure it has xenons? The headlight switch looks to be from a non xenon car and there is no headlight washers, unless they have been retrofitted. Do you know if this is the case?

Could you list the service history? I assume its due or overdue a service?

Thanks

I've just taken details of the original listing from the dealership to be perfectly honest. I will go out and have a look for you.

The last service was at 83,969 on 13/06/2022, since then I have just been taking it out once or twice a week, roughly 57 miles.

It's definitely at the upper end, I've just based it on what I have been advised to list for and what is selling on AT currently.

Ok thanks, all services are up to date then by the looks of it.

Can you see if they are electric folding mirrors as well then as you can't see the button on the images.

Do you have the standard suspension?

Yes all up to date and yes they are electric folding mirrors. I have used them regularly when parking in towns.

No standard suspension, front shocks were leaking hence the change. It only cost a sniff more to replace with aftermarket and have a full GEO done so I went with that option. Completely transformed the car, drives more like a RWD car should.
If you are interested then I would be more than happy to send over the other 40 images I have. Just couldn't upload them all, unfortunately.

That’s fair enough. Best of luck with the sale I don’t think this one is for me. :thumbsup:

My perfect spec and enough to move me from 3.0 obsession.
Sadly beyond my current budget.
