Potential Z4M Dilemma

[vanos]

What did you decide OP?

I’d say keep it and enjoy it as much as you can. Forget the low mileage / future value argument because as we’ve all seen recently, tomorrow isn’t guaranteed! I used to be too precious over my MR but now I drive her whenever and she just gets a good clean afterwards and she’s serviced on time. I can see me selling either, the only way I’d do that is to replace her with an MC.

For anyone who is interested, in the end the solution was…

… to park my E92 M3 on the street and keep the Z4 on the drive.

Now considering replacing the M3 with something else, although it’s a tough one. Didn’t rate the original M2 over the M3, so might look at a M2 Competition.

The other option is to go for something completely different, like a Megane RS or Yaris GR.

The only other option is to sell the Z4 and M3 for a 911 Turbo for a few years (while the kids are small enough to fit in the back)

I think the answer should always be Drive it.

My E46 M3 had well over 200k miles on it when I sold it for only a little less than any of them that weren't insanely low miles and the guy that bought it wrecked it 3 weeks after owning it.

Have you tried asking about garage space on here, whereabouts do you live? :?

I’m in Harpenden in Hertfordshire. He’d a look at a few garages, but they always seem compromised enough that I would use the car even less.

I can decent quality storage, but it’s a good 25 mins away so would definitely use the car less.

If you can afford the storage I would say to keep it. And 25 mins away ? For me not a big deal given the smiles it puts on ones face every time driven. Advice even if you can only get there once a month and take it for a long drive be worth it. Think of it as your personal me time to just forget about all the daily issues.

Mine has gone from daily driver to weekend car to track car over the last 12 years. It's lived on the street in London, then in garages in London, Buckinghamshire and Devon. It's now in a garage in Sydney because I couldn't bring myself to sell it when I emigrated. I say keep it by whatever means necessary

I'm hoping to keep mine the same, we want to emigrate to Canada and I'd love to take mine over with me! Wife just rolls her eyes :lol:

Definitely take the z4 to Canada if you can,you would regret getting rid of it if you did,as others have said.
Good luck with the move,if you do go,Ed
