Pistonheads mentioned this one in an article of theirs that will be live on of their auctions on 12 November.

BMW Z4M Coupe - 2 Previous Owners for sale by auction

Check out this BMW Z4M Coupe - 2 Previous Owners auction on PistonHeads. Stop dreaming. Start driving.

www.pistonheads.com

OK it's said to be a 2 owner car, but there is no mention of rod bearing shells and the seller could have made an effort with the driver's seat bolster!

Still it will be interesting to see what it makes, not least because mine has done a similar mileage. Somehow I can't see it getting to £14K though.

12k last time on Pistonheads... but yours for 14.5k in the same pants condition imo, detailed outside, but lets forget about the grubby interior.

97k genuine miles this car has been used and is not a garage queen.

Here's an advert for a barely used MC, but can anyone really see it being worth £69,980?

[Mr Tidy]

By comparison this low mileage MR looks far more sensibly priced.

At such low mileage they will be looking at the 'collector' market. It's a completely different animal to the rest of us.
And the dealer will be looking to make a killing too. I reckon there is a £10k plus mark up on that at present.

 

[Mr Tidy]

More like a £20/25K mark-up IMHO!

List price in 2006/7 would have been low to mid £40Ks.

Which inflation adjusted is ~70k today

Except it is nearly 20 years old now.

I was expecting it to be for sale at Hexagon!

 

[FurryPeach]

This £70k one came up for sale on the 17th, having been up for sale for a few hours 2 weeks prior with another dealer for a more “realistic” £45k - so Mr Tidys not far off with a £25k mark up.

What did you show me that beautiful thing for. I'm so glad it's 400miles away or I would be off for a test drive and you know where those lead.

[Mr Tidy]

On the face of it this one looks quite dear, but if you want Phoenix Yellow it looks like it was the only MR that colour sold in the UK!

Buzy, I passed through there yesterday, I could've taken it for that test drive for you and told you not to buy it
