Its been up a while & discussed before but now the price is reflecting the cars "foibles" this could be a cheap way into ///Motoring providing it comes up ok under scrutiny
No idea what costs are for changing KMH clocks to MPH but some CSL reps would transform the car & the silver sepang trim looks cool against the Ilb paint

Those wheels an interior are a no no for me. But as you say a set of CSL reps and either swap or dye the interior, could still be a cheap car.

If i was to register it to a french address then that could be avoided i presume :?
Tbh the 11k covered on such a small island like Guernsey may not have done the engine any favours :wink: possibly a low miler to avoid :?

I guess you would have to pay any duty due in France.

I'm not sure the engine would have been done any favours either, as I posted when this first came up.

But nowhere in Jersey is the limit higher than 40mph from memory. And if it is, it not for long otherwise you end up in the sea. :lol:

Ha, that's true, but even here in sunny Essex it can be hard work to find roads empty enough to get above 40mph consistently! Personally at 11k miles I think that's a cracking buy, import it, pay the taxes and stick in the garage for 6 months and I reckon you'd get a £3k return come next spring!
 
2008 58 car with 79000 has just sold before i had a chance to look at it for sub £15k. Needed an inspection 1 but had most of the extra's :|
 
Based on autotrader the average prices are:

Week 29 Z4MR = £15,546.05 Z4MC = £19,480.33
Week 34 Z4MR = £14,581.18 Z4MC = £18,427.00
Week 38 Z4MR = £15,138.54 Z4MC = £18,545.90

Sold to another dealer? There's a suspiciously similar one for sale at another dealer on Autotrader now. Same photos?
 
If it's an M it has to be Carbon leather..

Anything else is a spec faux pas..

£21,500 for a 50,000 miles car... Think they will be keeping that one for a while..
 
I've been curious about the above Z - Did contact them and have advised it's in tip top condition.

Inspection 2 has just been done / disks are as new.

Has anyone had any dealings with them? Since you've mentioned it's overpriced what do you think is more realistic.

Thanks

Not many Imola MCs around at any time so they are onto a winner as opposed to a current glut of black ones available
As mentioned Alu dash is a no-no on a M car but can be sorted afterwards in some form or other .(remove & paint easiest? )
Impressive service history & if condition matches description then its likely they will see close to their ask
You'd be lucky to get £1500 off making £20k & should you need to sell then you'd struggle to get £18500 private :? if its a longterm keeper then the ££ figures mean less & the Ins2 & brakes mean more :wink: almost £2k you won't have to find :thumbsup:
