Pricing

Hi,

When you get experienced in certain types of car make and model you get a feel for what the right price is, does that make sense?


Now with pre 2006 Z4s, when you take into account age, mileage it adds a certain judgement of what seems like a good price.

Ive seen one or two advertised 2003 2004 2.5 and 3l going for 'peanuts ' ie <£3000. Fsh, good maintenance history, based on the 'common list' of things to maintain on a z4, theyve been done.

Do the earlier years go for these relatively low values?

Thanks M

Yes the earlier (pre 06) cars change hands around £3k (& below).
When you can buy 6 cylinder E89s around £7500 & facelifted Si roadsters from £4500/£5k its inevitable the M54 Zs will lose value.
They are still good cars to own but the punchier N52 offers the best of all worlds with better economy & performance.
 
Any car is worth what someone wants to pay for it based on the history of the car vs how much you want to spend on getting it how you want it.

The e85 and e86 prices will bottom out with decent cars with good history / cared for going for a bit more than something that needs a bit of work.

They're not new cars, were never that popular and now moving into that twilight zone of it becoming harder to find decent ones.

I wouldn't think twice about buying one to fix up as they're relatively cheap to get back to good working order depending on the history obviously.

It's no different than any other car really.
