M market watch

You live and learn, had no idea it would chip so easily. On the bright side I can now get the DAS6 out without being scared of ruining a perfect finish

A few weeks ago I ended up p/x my Z4MC at a BMW dealer. They gave me a price I couldn't turn down and made money on the car from purchasing last year from another BMW dealer.

Quite shocked how much they put it up for though! :rofl:

My old Z4MC is still for sale at the main dealer I P/X'd it at (2 months and 5 days ago) - Price has been dropped from £23k to a much more realistic £20k. This car has loads changed under warranty in my ownership, if anyone wants to ask me any questions about it, fire me over a PM. Part of me wants to buy it back :?

Price has gone up. It's now advertised at £19,990.
 
Looks prepped a lot better now and seems in good nick.
Still a decent price for that mileage and list of options compared to some.

Many members follow the ///Market as I do :wink:
Up ? down ? Stagnant ?
Very often the complaint from folks joining up looking to buy is lack of decent cars :? however there seem's a good few around right now to choose from either ZMC or ZMR
A few examples of cars that have been for sale up to 5months :? from the forum to help gauge the current market
M roadies
2006 99k £12250
2007 62k £12750
2007 42k £14000
2006 78k £14500
2006 67k £14500
2006 76k £15500 / with aeros + gen CSLs
2006 46k £16995
2007 40k £17500

M coupes
2006 105k £15750
2007 70k £17700
2007 53k £19200

So what's the thoughts right now people :?


No thoughts or comments people ? Can't ever remember a choice like this especially at the height of the roady market :?
 
Loads for sale at the minute...

Demand has dwindled now as they aren't getting snapped up like they used too..

Suppose price, age and the onset of more desirable cars falling into the price category all have an effect
 
Coupe market seems pretty stagnant bang average cars with high mileage at high prices.

Been watching for the last 2-3 months most cars are still up for sale. Lots of privates asking as much as dealers too with no warranties.

Def gave mine away wish I'd hung on to it.

Where would your car sit in the current market Tom ?
Granted it was a terrific example but then so are many of the ones currently for sale
Do you think it would sell for more or less than you achieved ?
 
I am a perfectionist tho and what some may think are good I would disagree with. Most I have seen for sale IMO need work doing to them and are relatively low spec and high milage and with them touching 80k there needs to be some money spent to assure your investment which as you know with it being one of the considerations when selling your own M.

A few are up for sale through dealers with cosmetic issues one is for sale which looks ok 20k 50k but the first image has a xenon completely saturated. Others have badly warn seats and steering wheels lots of stone chips etc and they aren't cheap they are all expensive.

Spec doesn't seem to mean much with current prices.

I wouldn't say mine is worth huge money in the market it was a 56 fully speced apart from cruise and extended leather with 62k and sold it for 14.5k 2 years ago so would probably have 80 on it now if it were in my care. I needed it shifting tho as I left for SA about a week later was a last min decision as I didn't have anywhere to store it.

Saying that there is a private one for sale with over 100k for over 15k.

I just mean it's hard to find another in as good condition without parting with 22-25k. I just don't see it as a good value propersition. I would say there is plenty of manover with these prices non seem to be shifting and I'm sure they would be glad to see them go.

This is one of about 10 on AT that's been up since early this year.

Yea agree with all of that Tom , getting a car 100% as you desire can be expensive :? while buying one ready done is virtually impossible even with a decent budget
Strange days
 
Hi guys, i am marco from Italy, very nice to meet you.... Here in italy it's not easy to find a Z4M coupè. Prices are very high and you can find something only over 35.000 Euro. Are there any Z4M coupè or roadster for sale, with LHD at prices around 20-25.000 euro?
thanks a lot
Marco

Would love to have a drive of this one...! Given that a 991 gt3 are £130k then this is almost good value
 
Marco, with or without brexit brits generally do not care much for any other market than the UK market, so even talking LHD cars is for deaf ears. :)

For you, I would as always look into Mobile.de and autoscout24.com.
 
What's the view....will the Z4MC will appreciate to Z3MC levels in the next 5 years? Could the Z4 trade for £35k+ If so, will folk garage queen your cars and bank on it as an investment....or will they never really hit those heights?

I made a pretty poor move in 2009 selling my CSL for £25k, so would ideally not like to miss the next M to move upwards in price... :headbang:

You can't worry about this stuff as it ruins enjoyment of the car. I sold my Z3MC in 2013 So I know your pain!
 
Yup, I sold my air-cooled 911 Coupe some time back, it would have been worth well over double what I sold it for. :(

ditto :cry: paid £10k for 1993 K plate C2 on 118k , spent £1200 on it then sold for £12500 after a year thinking id won out :(
wasn't long after the 964s went north mighty fast & doubt £23k would buy the car now ? 993s must be up £7k/£10k on top :o can't remember the last time I saw either out on the roads :? Think folks are sitting tight on them scared of adding miles which is a shame
