Though you'd need to get that dash replaced... and while the champagne interior is missing, its probably for the best in terms of cleaning... Flimper spec but low miles...
 
That dash! It's a sports coupe not a 7 series! Last owner must have been about 70 years old.

Good mileage though & great rare colour :thumbsup:
 
You know i kind of quite like that dash on a Sepang. Sort of suits it!! If you've got a marmite exterior colour go for a marmite interior trim too!

A pity it isn't champagne leather. It's much easier to keep clean than you think. Mine has been no problem and still looks virtually as good as new now. Those Amarone seats and door cards that flatout has provisionally sold would look great in a Sepang car too.
 
How much roughly would it cost to get this sepang up to spec? New seats, trim, dash, parking etc? I'm very tempted!

You've done your research on the Z4MC right? You know its going to be more expensive to run and maintain? If you're concerned about cost on trim, wait until you run it!

It's nothing to do with affordability... It's a question that needs to be asked to see if it is worth paying the asking price in my mind. Even millionaires are money savvy... So not sure why you made the comment? Bloody wish I was a millionaire though!!!
 
I wonder what the take-up was on the Nav for the Z4M's. I'd guess looking at those coming up for sale, it was a little over 50% - perhaps 60:40 in favour of those with it specified.

How many Sepang MC's were there? IIRC it was somewhere between 9 to 13?? That means there might be as few as 5 or 6 in existence with the Professional Navigation. If that were true, if you really wanted Sepang, I think you'd have to snap a good, low mileage one up and take it to pvr for him to retro-fit the Nav. :P
 
Could live with spec just to get the sepang but the dash :cry: could only be worse if they had tiled it :oops: shocking combo :?

I made the comment as these cars (M) are seldom about what makes monetary sense. Anyone worrying about cost should not get themselves this type of car as they will inevitably sell it. You must (and likely will) have 90% love for the car and 10% sense IMHO to buy an M. They're a very emotional car (I've seen them sobbing quietly when parked!).

My estimate on parts for the dash would be just a few hundred pounds - ebay sourcing. Seats etc may cost a few hundred more. In any event, mechanical changes aside, you'd likely spend less than a grand getting it the way you want.

Not sure why it needs new seats, yep black interior isn't ideal for everyone (although it would be my preference) but I wouldn't change the seats ? The dash on the other hand is not good.

Agreed, carbon leather dash (£600-800??) and a set of CSL's will sort it out nicely!
 
Just get the wood trim wrapped or lacquered black, seats can be recovered at a reasonable price and most options retrofitted, sat Nav isn't a must have option though.
 
Depends if you're buying or selling :D

Looks about right for a reasonably prompt sale to me, what with the yucky wood and sans navigation.
