There’s a whole lotta love been lavished on that car and the ask is reasonable.

If there were a couple of extra cylinders, it might be on my drive already. I love that colour.

Good luck with the sale, although I’m not sure you will need it.

I waited 3 yrs before a green Z4, in any engine size came up. Absolutely gutted to have to put it up for sale. Especially given all the work done and thousands ££ spent.

With the sunshine round the corner, I may just keep it..

Hi, is your car still for sale? Would be interested in seeing it if so, and if it's near Heathrow then even better!

 

[rick_bubu]

Hi. Apologies as I didn't get notification of your message. The car isn't available for the next four weeks atleast. I'll update the thread when it's back up for sale

Kind regards
Rick

Back up for sale now, with full 12 months MOT.

Happy shopping!
