Drat! I knew I should have bought the coupemr wilks said:just been out looking at alternatives to the golf & came across this little gem http://www.arena-carcentre.co.uk/used-cars/bmw-z4-3-2-2dr-preston-201234482776860
looked pretty tidy & hard to believe the price
bloody hairdressers cars just seem to lose me money! 
It certainly makes me think it's not worth even trying to sell. Any real "upgrade" would cost a fortune on top of the M's value.
I was thinking that too :lol:ben g said:
To be honest, it's way too cheap for a 56 plate on that mileage. My 06 3.0Si was on 58k when I bought it last year and it was quite a bit more than that. I'd expect it to be sitting at £14k if it was in good condition with a FBMWSH... Which it doesn't mention. Maybe it's a Cat D but they're not saying on the ad...
Very cheap ///M, I wonder if all the services are in order, should have had inspection 2 by that mileage, if it has and is straight that's an amazing price
Liverpool
To be fair, that's the sort level of offers I was getting when I was trying to sell my Z4MC (with similar mileage) at the beginning of the year - against an asking price of about £14k (for a quick sale) :thumbsdown:
After the 3rd or 4th derisory offer I decided it wasn't worth selling and so kept it and did some little noise-enhancing mods. Got the exhaust, still waiting for the intake

An HPI check would show that though...
Not sure about M's but good example 3.0's seem to be selling well despite winter season and Christmas coming up.
I had a couple of what seemed serious enquiries ( from Forum members ) when I advertised mine recently . As it happens ( shouldn't use that phrase what with the Jimmy Savile scandal ! ) a friend of mine is buying it - he always said if I ever considered selling it he would buy it but I didn't know how serious he was until in conversation I told him I had advertised it !

Nice price, question is why...
Do an HPI first but that only tells you if it's been written off really.
To give you an idea, purchased from a dealer in 'poor condition' it should be £11,960 (according to whatcar...which doesn't really tell you anything in real day values).
As a dealer; I'll tell you now with that cream interior it'll be a good sign as to how well it's been kept - I'm guessing there will be all sorts of marks on it. The price drop shows you how much they are struggling to sell it. For trade they would have bought it nearer £9.5k, so make sure you barter your moneys worth on it.
As a Z4 M owner; It looks pretty neat if cream interior does it for you - personally I prefer red. 10/10 for looking at the roadster
Hope this helps.
