Hello,
Long time lurker, first time poster (and signing up too i suppose)
I recently sold my E46 M3, which was an awesome car, and started looking for something different, Skyline, RX7 etc
I change my mind in the end, i wanted a Z4m Coupe, and since its to be similar to E46 M3 i went to see the below car.
http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/bmw/z4m-coupe/bmw-z4-m-coupe-2007/2208235?isexperiment=true
I liked the car, everything seemed good, bloke was a nice guy, clearly loved the car and kept it well.
Although i ended up have a few questions.....
I notice the next service is an inspection 2 fairly soon... Not really an issue except they are not cheap, but the service indicator said it was an oil service next, a little bit of digging in the service book, and i found out the it had 2 oil services in a row instead of oil - inspeciton - oil - inspection.
So first sesrvice is running in at 1202
Then
oil service at 12k 12/12/08
oil service at 22k 20?10/09
inspection 1 33k 22/04/2011
Oil at 44k - 9/5/13
The boke has had it for 4 years, so what this says to me, is that he bought this as an AUC car in 2008, who just put it through an oil service possibly as a courtesy as it was not due. which then reset the trip computer.
My question is... Is this an issue, come resale, or general life, i noticed it, so i suppose when i sell at some point, so will someone else if they know what they are looking for.
Next question - is the rear M badge, not no the wrong side? i have always seen them on the left.
Also finally, options - Is Sat NAV the only option this car does not have?
It has 4 buttons in the console
2 heated seats, 1 tyre pressure thingy, and DSP... There seems to be space for 2 more (judging by M3)
Oh and finally finally - The seats did not have boulster or lumbar adjustments like my M3 did. Do z4's usually have this?
Lots of questions!
Sorry
Thanks in advance
