I am selling my wife's E85 Z4 Roadster, that she has had now for just over 5 years.
The car is a 2004 plate 3.0se with 98,000 miles, in Sterling Grey.
It is fitted with the electric memory heated leather MSport seats from the factory.
It also has the Multi Function steering wheel and xenons.
In my ownership I have changed the water pump to a metal impeller one, the voltage regulator, starter motor and air conditioning condenser/radiator, discs and pads
I have moved the roof motor into the boot after refurbishing it.
I have changed the notorious leaky oil filter housing to engine block seal
I have fitted some subtle eagle eye DRL's, a front facing camera and monitor, rear parking sensors and a Kenwood bluetooth streaming head unit which also works with the MF wheel buttons.
The car has the factory fitted CD multi changer (does not work though with the Kenwood) and I have the original head unit to go with the car.
I have fitted the Gaptech RCH roof module so the roof will open and close from the key.
I have recently refurbished the 108 alloys and although not big names tyres, they all have either 4.5mm or 5mm still left on them with no uneven wear.
Today I machine polished the car, and refreshed the paint on all of the callipers and discs. The leather has been treated also.
I have also changed the oil filter and oil today as I do every time it comes off winter SORN.
The engine purrs with no rattles, and pulls like a train.
It handles like it is on rails with the Eibach pro kit which lowered the car by 30mm.
Not so good points
Only 1 key
The rear passenger wing has had a smart repair before my ownership and the finish is not too good, (photo) there is also a small parking dent on the same wing. I did just miss out on a Sterling grey wing on eBay which went for £120, and that would have just been a straight bolt on.
Never really bothered me that much to get it re-done.
There a a few stone chips on the bonnet, though I have touched them in, but there are no scratches or dents on the car, other than a couple of tiny parking dings.
There is a tiny hole and some light scuffs on the drivers bolster but some scuff master and a drop of leather filler will fix that.
The steering wheel plastics could do with repainting again.
That's it.
The MOT is due in July and the last two years passed with no advisories, it has done less that 2000 miles since last MOT, and 2500miles the year before that, we have averaged only around 2500miles per year in our ownership.
I am asking £4000, as previously stated, only because I didn't realise the true value.
The photo shows the valuation at £4,500 for a private sale, and that doesn't take into account heated MSports seats, which would cost anyone £800 or more to retrofit.
So I am not being greedy asking £4k, but won't go lower as I have listed all the minor deficiencies, but neither am I increasing it, even though I have seen the true worth.
The cheapest 3 litre currently on auto trader (that is not rusty) is £4,200, but without my seats and extras
Come and take a look, everything as described and no nasty surprises,
I am in Telford, and just changing the Private reg back, so will need to wait for the new V5 to arrive as in the plates fitted today on the photo's.
