Z4MR Service history query

I agree with this.

I was consider the same car your refer to but the 7 year gap put me off and also prob will put buyers off when u come to sell it.

than that over those miles its been driven hard. Redish have no space for a pre-inspection before September when I asked. You could still ask for an oil inspection to try and gauge early engine wear.

If the asking price reflects the gap, and you know you'll

I presume you are talking about this car? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164891863575

If that's the case, then it's far from full service history. Who knows, maybe large gap in oil changes / lack of use, contributed to the Vanos needing to be rebuilt at such a low mileage. I wouldn't be paying a premium for that one, although no doubt, it's a lovely example.

Yup - seller's parents bought it in 2014 when it was due for a service, didn't bother by the looks of it and just drove it for a year, as did the seller for another 4 years, until something went wrong and it needed sorting.

Have you got the reg to check the MOT history? also ask for a phot of the wheels, lets you see what sort of tyres are on there and perhaps get the date sode to see if they've been scrimped on as well.
