E89 Market watch

[mr wilks]

Bit of TLC needed but pretty cheap..

Indeed a 12 plate 77k 3.0i navspec Msport for £10k is far from expensive , just a sign of the times with too few buyers for too many cars .

Mine has just turned 7k miles.

I really don't get that with a modern car :? its never going to be a classic so if you don't drive its pretty pointless having it

Rubbish, I've had mine now for 4years and its done less than 8 thousand miles, it sits in the garage all winter and only used as a second car in the summer for pleasure, but its a thing called pride of ownership, come spring its like having a new car not having used it for months and the feeling I get from the ownership experience is anything but pointless, I don't have to drive thousands of miles a year to get that. :x

Fair enough , if that works for you but doesn't change my opinion i see no logical reason with any E89 not to run it all year round

I agree with Mr Wilks. Drive it all year and enjoy it all of the time and not just for a few outings. It gets to the stage people are scared to take them out if it's wet! I run mine all year and enjoy it all year. It's regularly maintained, washed and waxed and looks a lot younger than its years. Don't see the point of only bringing it out for sunny days. Roof down as long as it's dry Lifes too short to fanny about.

Nice to see a old friend returned to glory 8)

I don't recall it having fbmwsh tho :?
It was extensively maintained though for anyone interested in the car.
All the big jobs done in last 15k Hpfp, 6 x injectors, waterpump & the wheels / tyres were new around 52k.
Remapped too :evil: was a great car that I'm sure will please somebody

Admittedly I only used to drive mine out on weekends or if the weather was perfect! But since then I have realised I should put more mileage on it, these cars aren't particularly mileage sensitive, but more importantly I should just drive the thing and enjoy it! Looking forward to my next Z4!

Very cheap 28i here, been watching this since i bought my 20i.. this was £14,000 then. Now it is only £12,500 for a 2014 28i with 62k miles.. only thing is it literally has no options!! It doesn't even have heated seats, cruise control, wind deflector I don't think i've ever seen a 20i or 28i without heated seats.. I suspect the lack of options is really hammering its desirability and price:

Horrible, very similar to the daft spoiler that the new 2ltr FType coupes have.

 

[Mr Tidy]

That looked quite cheap to me, then I noticed it doesn't have much in the way of spec!

No M-Sport seats, they aren't heated, no cruise - but it does have that minging spoiler. :lol:

Looks like a TV aerial from the 70s! :thumbsdown:

Hi chaps, this will be my last post as my Z4 is now sold. For Market Watch purposes I can tell you it was a 2010 White with cream leather 35i DCT. 49,000 miles and full BMW history. It sold for £13,000.

I shall miss it.

Not so sure on the mods for myself but its hardly ott on the ask for a 2010 35i navspec at £12450 8) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-3-0-35i-M-Sport-DCT-sDrive-2dr-2010-Remap-coilovers-20-alloys/254295477901?hash=item3b35310e8d:g:kikAAOSwdg5dJ9Z7

Pretty sure its a forum car too :? the 20s ring bells as do those backboxes
Described as Msport but sneakily no front pics :wink: whoever buys it should allow for adding a set of tyres to those wheels

I've put my Z4 35iS up for sale on here:

https://z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=116522

Just wondered what you thought on the price? I've left room for negotiation, dependant on what happens with the car before I get a buyer.

Be gentle with your valuations as I'm staying on the forum with a G29 M40i due in September. ;-)
