Pimped Z4MR...

Ridiculous price for something that looks like it's dropped out of a claw machine in an arcade on Felixstowe seafront.
 
I saw that earlier on Piston Heads, I'm sure it was at £17.5k then. The guy is dreaming if he thinks he'll get what he's asking.

Most of the mods detract from the price....
 
I don't particularly like it but I'd take the GruppeM. I suspect that people will shy away from it due to the extensive mods...
 
To be honest quite a lot of it looks salvageable with a bit of a spray - hoops, steering wheel, door grabs. The front lights look ok, fixing the rears depends on how they have been tinted. Wheels could be replaced and the blacks sold, repainted or used as winters. But you're still talking what - £1.5k to do all that ?

The thing that really kills it is the windows, which I didn't notice for ages. Not sure the sides are legal, and I think thy would look awkward when up with the roof down. I am also pretty sure I hate the rear window tint. Expensive to rectify...
 
If a crack dealing variant of Mickey Mouse ever owned a car, this would be it.

Sorry - tired. Time for bed.

:rofl:

I now want to meet the owner, just to check...

Are you getting much sleep inkey$ ? :D

Very similar to mine, just less spec, but all that black is just wrong :thumbsdown:

Black cars need silver wheels IMO

Out of interest, what does yours have that this doesn't ? And your unfitted aero skirts don't count :poke:
 
I am ashamed to admit that I did have a pass at this, the front-side-quarter pic with the roof down caught my eye, before I did anything stupid - my old man put a word in. As I remember it sounded like "Nuck Fo".

Anyway.... I did put a half-realistic proposal forward to encourage a response, "Rishi" wasn't prepared to be reasonable on price saying "the car speaks for itself".

B******* it does.

It's got no tax/MOT left either.

GLWTS. or lack thereof.
 
The car speaks for itself :rofl:

If it does, it's screaming "saaaaaaaave meeeeeeeeeeee !!!"

Did you go have a look ? What was it priced at, at the time ? Like I said, it was on at nearly £20k when I first saw it. Reckon I'd offer him £13.5k just to see his face :D
 
No I never got round to seeing it. It was at £17,500 when I asked how low he would go, then I gestured I might consider if it was near £14k but he didn't budge an inch.

Tbh I still wouldn't have bought it - my instincts kicked in a little later than usual...

on another note... I went for a drink with a mate of mine late this evening with the dual purpose of seeing this;

I think the tyres are low on the front but it was so damn cold/dark I couldn't feel/see anything! No nav, no cruise, no logic 7 and no CSL's. What do you make of the price? and with that spec/colour combo will it sell?

I was thinking of buying it, then doing something like this (photoshop alert);

I sent Carlians an email regarding this car earlier today... they said they wouldn't move on the price at this time as they had some interest in it.

Not much but partly my own fault. Yesterday was a blip on the inkey$ sleep scale but I'm okay today I think. Well I've got a cold but other than that. When you hit 40 these things matter all of a sudden Bing :wink:

That black MR is crying out for some tlc but Id say, only for around £12k max. The red MC with dark wheels on the other hand... :thumbsup:
 
maybe if someone debadged all the //M badges on it got the stock rollover bars and got the old taillights back on, it would look good to me just my opinion though :P the ///M badges just dont go with the car in my opinion i wouldnt care much for navagation systems and all that because getting lost and getting to drive my Z4 more is the best part of getting lost lol

Thanks. Mate. :|

:lol:

@xiaxio - agree, could be nice put back to stock, but it is way overpriced for the UK market in the state it is in. As for the ///M badges, well it's personal taste but IMO it s an ///M so they'd stay on :)
 
I noticed this motor when it was at £18995 & I was surprised at how overpriced it was, I didn't take much notice of how pimped it was! At least the price is coming down now though.
