Im a lurker here but ive got a lot out of this forum and listing here first to see if takes a anyone's fancy.
2006 56-plate BMW Z4M Coupe. Sapphire black, black leather, leatherweave dash. 89k miles. £17,500.
I've modified a few things over the years to focus on performance as it's a weekend and driving holiday car, but nothing drastic that cant be undone over a weekend.
The standard exhaust back boxes, and the front and rear suspension removed at 62k miles will come with the car if you want to return to standard, but IMO these are decent upgrades that make a difference to the experience of the car . e.g. adjustable B16 coilovers can customise for track driving Vs comfy commute £2000, backboxes for the soundtrack and the odd spit of flame £1000. I am covered with a regular mainstream insurer with all modifications declared, for only beer money more than a stock quote - dont let modications put you off!
Carbonfibre patterned leather dashboard trim - this looks very smart! Standard equipment for these cars is pretty high with a great sounding audio system with subwoofer behind seat, Bluetooth phone connection, cruise control, reversing sensors, heated seats etc. The 6 CD changer doesnt work and i havent bothered to look into this so the car will come with 6 free CD's from when it last worked
Excellent service history with run-in service at 1009 miles, and then 9 services mostly BMW maindealer but I took the car to proper M specialists for the inspection 1 and inspection 2 so I know it was done right. e.g. they provided the old valve shims from the adjustments they made. Fully stamped history booklet with a stack of supporting paperwork and receipts for servicing and parts.
2 keys. Documentation for a tracker but I dont currently have it enabled.
Interior is in excellent condition with minimal wear to leather. The paint is in good condition with usual stone chips on front end but nothing out of the ordinary.
This is a seriously nice car and I have loved the 6 years ive owned it but its time for a change. Probably for something with 8 or more cylinders to tick that item on my bucket list.
Currently on a private plate but being returned to its orginal 56 plate.

- Bilstein B16 adjustable coilovers, Polybushed rear lower wishbone bushes, Wiechers front strut brace
- Carbotech XP front brake pads. Awesome stopping power even from cold and a big upgrade from stock (will come with a spare set of nearly-new BMW pads as the carbotechs can be a bit scheechy on the road as its a racing pad)
- Wheels refurbed by Lepsons in a custom one-off copper metalic powder coat, with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres on all corners. Best tyres ever for this type of car! Fronts 7mm , rears one 7mm and one 5mm as I replaced one off-cycle due to a puncture.
- Stromung exhaust backboxes. Handmade in California and imported by me. These really bring the awesome S54 engine to life and a lot lighter than the standard boxes.
- Stormworks titanium short throw gear knob. Not just "bling", it's a much nicer weighted throw for the getrag gearbox on these cars and allows a smoother change. The car will come with the original backlight knob if you prefer.
- Gloss black kidney grills (because it's the batmobile...)
