The miles are up, but not mega. This car has plenty going for it, so should sell and summer is coming :)

Put it up for for £3300 and see what interest you get, it keeps the car together and saves you the headache of selling, removing and posting parts.
Seems a shame to break her :)

This!

Put two prices on. One with the Hardtop and one without.

Also see if you can take pictures by rotating the phone!

Even though it's only a 2.0 sell it rather than break it as someone might get the same pleasure out of the car that you've had and every car that is broken up is another car closer to electric cars!
 
Most effective way is to sell the BBK, wheels, seats, dash, coilovers etc seperately, and put the original parts back if you still have them (plus a cheap set of stock seats)
That means work, but those parts add up in value quite quickly. You'll probably get about just as much for them as for the car itself.
Tuningparts are worthless on a car but very popular when sold seperately.

I'm surprised that there's still no dibs on the seats and bbk's :lol:

Haha or the ZHP, wind deflector, M3 strut brace, cruise control :)

I think you’re right that the main desirable parts will soon add up.
 
Yeah all the goodies when still fitted on the car probably add less than 1k, maybe only £500, as they're probably seen by the new buyer as repairs or some added bling.
Only an enthousiast sees the value of those parts, but all the enthousiasts already have a z4 (and are thus not interested in the car itself) and are on this forum.
 
I think it would be a shame to break it, but as GuidoK says you'd do much better selling the goodies on here and putting the original parts back on if you've got them then sell the car as standard.

Good luck anyway! :thumbsup:
 
Anyone doubting the 'breakability' of a z4 just needs to see this thread

https://z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=113342&start=120

Standard 2.0 9 pages of requests, easy money.

Far more money to be made breaking it.
 
Does seem a shame to break a car but it does seem equally silly to give it away with lots of added value parts for nothing. I with the folks who say return it to standard and sell the juicy bits. If you don't have standard replacements do a px sale. Ie sports seats £600 or £500 with standard SE ones in part ex. That way you creme off most of the valve whilst still have a car to sell or part ex. You may even make more money

Mmmm I might be interested in the BBK... Depending on how cheap it'd turn out to be.

I bought it off the forum last month, would be looking to get back why I paid. £400.
 
Maybe swapping some parts back to standard this weekend so look out for the BBK going up, MFSW and maybe the carbon leather dash, cup holders, wind deflector..... I think I should put some forsale threads up. I’ll do it later :)
 
Any Aeros hiding in the garage?

First dibs if there are...
