Is this the lowest mileage Z3?

Is this the lowest mileage Z3?

...and therefore the most expensive?

As much as I think it looks nice, if you start using it, you potentially reduce its value.

12yrs old and hardly used but presumably in need of changing!!!! - possibly.
Sapphire black/Imola red and black interior/ red roof/ S54 - the only RHD one made.

Along with every other bit of perished rubber on the car. Cars like this always need more stuff swapped out than the price reflects. Cars are supposed to be driven.

There was one in the uk that had less than 5k on it z3m.

Sold for 11.5k a few years ago. Worth more now.

The m cars will hold even more money in a few years and sell for over 20k.

I wouldn't be surprised with the number of dealer stamps even with such a low mileage, whilst mine is still only on 24K of which over the past 4 years I've probably done 3K its had 2 services regardless if it really needed them. Its best to change the coolant and brake fluid every 2 years regardless if used or not. Its a good sign to me, I would be worried if it only haqd 1 service under its belt at that mileage.

There's no way a 2.8 is worth that..
I remember seeing a 3.0 with 17k on the clock for 7k..
That would be a more realistic price IMO
But I'd still buy an M for that money :wink:

I share that feeling, value have been sooooo steady for last 5 years already. It's really annoying having to sell mine now, I know I'll look back in a few years and regret having to sell at today's money :head:

Have you also noticed there's hardly any for sale compared to the coupes and other similar cars..

It only takes a few to raise there asking prices then all will be over 10k...
The M roadsters and coupes will be asking Z1 prices soon...

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..
