I think whoever typed that was reading off the V5!

My first Coupe was Ruby Black but showed Red on the V5. Previous owners OH apparently got stopped twice over that, but thankfully I never did. :)

And FWIW even £15,950 seems pretty strong money to me at that mileage.
 
Interesting, Scott James is the dealer selling my old 3.0Si…

No surprises but the market is also very fickle/trend led - that Z3MC sold for 60k at the weekend at the NEC classic car on site auction.

It was very nice, one of the rarer later ones with the S54 engine, plus rare colour, 44k miles but 60k was strong money.

I knew they weren't cheap, but that sounds like strong money even for a low mileage example with the S54. While the colour may be rare I'd much rather have an actual colour!
 
Interesting you say that - I thought the grey diluted the shape a little. Whereas I think silver/grey accentuates the contours on the Z4M, admittedly different shades of grey but big difference between the two IMO.
 
I'd agree about that colour not suiting the Breadvan. I'd much rather have Imola Red, Estoril Blue or Phoenix Yellow.

I quite like Silver Grey on my Z4MC, but it wouldn't have been my first choice. It just appeared at the right time for the right price!
 
Somehow I wish I still had my phoenix yellow s54 Z3MC in the garage. Extrapolation forward it would have 12000 mile on it now….
 
If I was desperate to get a low miler this one looks like a better idea:- https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202307300235116?sort=datedesc&make=BMW&model=Z4%20M&page=2&postcode=gu470za&radius=1500&advertising-location=at_cars&fromsra

But personally I'd rather pay about half the money for one I wasn't afraid to use!

Which is what I did, admittedly due to budget constraints at the time.
 
I thought about this blue one and the ex Jay Kay car. The JK car had no real history and was fine but not pampered so I let it go. At that price it had to be perfect. The blue one I didn’t bother to look at as I diddnt want black interior but by all accounts it was good and with good provenance. In the end I agree with the posters above that such a low miles car prohibits use and as this was supposed to be a fun car for me i went and bought a 30000 mile one for a lot less. Needs a bit of sorting though but at least I won’t be precious about using it

Looks like my old one.

Lovely car but £35k is punching I think.

Makes 15k Z4MRs look like absolute bargains.

Thats the thing after having both, ye the coupe is a better drive but it's not double money better imo. The experience comes from the noise with the roof down and when you consider its more than 50%...
