One thing for sure Roy, they ain’t going down the way. GLWTS

The 35ises aren’t all that great, you know...!

I see this went over people’s heads, so just re-stating that the 35is is definitely a great Zed and is an M in all but name. There.

You praise yours at all opportunities. Maybe an M in all but name but how does it stack up against a Calibra?

Hahaha... can the Calibra (an ‘ok’ car - Give me a 325i E30 lol) lose it’s top?
A-Ha!

I thought the Calibra was the alcohol-free version?

I thought it was a fun free car - a bit Danny La Rue - all dressed up in a party frock

Then I did have several cavailers in my day including a GSi 16v 4x4 which was a great car

Heathen, you should be sticking up for your Cav prettier sister, I had plenty including Turbo’s of both models.

Anyway...... you did ask what I was replacing the 35iS with, no my fault you don’t like the answer :wink:

Heathen, I am more of a philistine I like the odd Vauxhall - Astra GTe was a great car back in the day, I had a mint green calibra as well but all show and no go for me, same as Capri (I had one of those as well), Cortina in drag.

I think the camper is a great idea but a caravan and a tow bar on the 35iS would have been better - best of both worlds that way ok

 

[Zforbes]

That would get my vote too buts it too late now

If you do go own this route you'll be joing the Calibra forum

https://www.clubcalibra.com/,

just note though you won't fit in without some of these

That looks like an active forum - cant be many Calibras left now, all gone to the great scrapyard in the sky

Nice but think beige socks would go better

What's going on? You've actually got the "quotes" system working!

Yep - but being a philistine and a ludite I am fairly certain I can screw it up again pretty dam quickly

Afternoon all,

I have agreed a price to sell my car for subject to the potential buyer confirming that they want to proceed once they have viewed for £12,750. Just popped onto autotrader and if the pricing is right on the 35i for sale on there I may of undervalued my asking price. What would you do, sell it for the agreed price or ask for the similar prices on autotrader?

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202104271892143?model=Z4&radius=1500&aggregatedTrim=35i&make=BMW&price-to=30000&sort=datedesc&advertising-location=at_cars&postcode=rm14yu&include-delivery-option=on&onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=Used&page=1

mine is a 2010, with less miles

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202105082380480?model=Z4&radius=1500&aggregatedTrim=35i&make=BMW&price-to=30000&sort=datedesc&advertising-location=at_cars&postcode=rm14yu&include-delivery-option=on&onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=Used&page=1

This one has an upgraded hifi but same spec as mine.

Should I sell at the agreed price?

Why didn't you check prices first? Both links are for trade sales cars and they probably won't get full asking, therefore your £12,750 sounds about right for a private sale. If I was your purchaser, I would not be impressed if you put the price up once it has been agreed.

Trade will also have to pay VAT, cover warranty and any part ex allowance + running costs of the business etc.
