FOR SALE: 2007 BMW Z4 3.0si Coupe, Manual gearbox. PRICE: £6250

Stratus Grey with 18” MV2 Alloys, black leather interior and aluminium trim.

116,000 miles, 4 previous owners, N52 engine with later plastic valve cover.

M Sport Suspension, Heated Electric Sports Seats, Multifunction Steering Wheel, cruise control, Auto lights/wipers/rear view mirror, Parking sensors. Business radio with Bluetooth phone and aux input. The car is completely standard.

I bought this car in April 2015 at 69,000 miles. The previous owner was an Engineer at Bentley who had used it to commute from Manchester to Crewe. In my 5 years of ownership it has been used daily for commuting approx. 15 mainly motorway miles each way + occasional longer trips to Scotland and Nationally adding 47,000 miles.

During my ownership all servicing and maintenance has been undertaken by myself. I am a Mechanical Engineer and experienced home mechanic. Adding up all the receipts it seems I have spent over £3000 on parts alone(!), much of this resolving E86 “common problems”.

Below are the major services and big jobs that have been done to the car, I have a folder full of receipts for many additional parts;

Both front calipers have recently been replaced, it’s also been through two sets of rear springs in the past.

Bodywork in my opinion is very good for the mileage and age considering it has had no work done. Carpark door dents have been avoided by careful parking and the wheels were refurbished (power coated) 18 months ago. The front bumper is due a respray and there is a small scuff on the driver’s side rear corner.

The interior is clean with minimal wear. The driver’s seat bolster has been retouched in the past and still looks good. I fitted new BMW mats a few months ago. Everything on the car works.

Oil use is approx. 300ml per 1000miles, I’ve only ever used Mobil 1 5w30 along with Tesco 99 Fuel.

I will include with the car a BC cables OBD kit with INPA/TIS plus a C110 fault reader.

The current MOT runs until August 2020 but will require 3 new tyres which have just reached the wear bars (1 was replaced more recently due to a puncture). It is currently running on Michelin Pilot Sport Runflats all round.

I also suspect that it will require new rear brake discs in the near future.

PRICE: £6250

I have loads of history for this car which I am happy to discuss, I can also provide more photos and details of maintenance if required. DM me any questions or for further contact details.

I am located in Stockport (SK4), but the car will move to my parents’ house close to Chester (WA6) when its family car replacement arrives.

Thanks for looking
Matt

UPDATE:

Following some questions I have attached more images of the bumper/scuff and condition of the wheels.

I have not replaced the tyres yet as I felt the next owner may wish to choose their own non-runflats. If I come to replace them myself it will be with 3 more PS3 runflats.

Also some further items of maintenance during my ownership;

2015-06-15 - Rear Discs
2015-08-13 - Front Suspension arms and bushes (Lemforder)
2016-02-11 - Front Pads and Discs.
2016-03-17 - Drivers Side Window Regulator
2016-06-02 - Hand Brake Shoes
2016-08-27 - Alternator freewheel pulley
2018-12-22 - Steering Wheel trims replaced
2020-01-19 - Parking Sensor Replaced

Very tidy car, at quite an attractive price for anyone looking for an E86
 
Thanks :thumbsup:

As I said above i'm happy to provide more info on maintenance or provide more photos to anyone interested.

Great spec and looks a tidy example given the mileage (minus the front bumper) - interior looks better than my 65k coupe!!

Sure this'll be snapped up at that price - GLWS!
 
Thanks again for the kind comments, I must say I've been surprised by the amount of interest since posting the ad.

I'd just like to point out that I have updated the ad to say that new rear discs will likely be required soon. They were last replaced in 2015, the condition is visible in the photos.
