For Sale: 2006 Ruby Black 3.0si Sport Coupe 57k miles FSH
Well after almost 5 years of ownership it's come time to sell my Z4. It's an amazing car, has never let me down, and i'll be sad to see it go. I bought it from BMW and it's been my weekend car for all the time i've owned it, but unfortunately now i've moved further away from my job I now have a commute which I can't walk and it feels a bit of a crime to use my Z4 as a commuter car (although you could if you wanted to!). As I've only used it at the weekend I've only 20k miles in it in 5 years, it really is a well cared for car (i've always filled it with Shell V Power petrol and it's always been garaged so hasn't been exposed to the elements). It's in great condition, only has the odd stone chip mark (I had to look to find them though!), and has never had any smelly air "fresheners" so it still has that nice new car leather smell to it.
The car is completely standard other than a ZHP gear knob (which is weighted which makes shifting smoother), black kidney grills (I have the original ones too if you want them), stubby aerial (again I have the original one somewhere if you want it), black badges all round (these are just self adhesive though so can be removed if you want the standard blue/white badges - except the wheel caps, they're direct replacements). There's no silly exhausts or engine mods of any kind, the car is completely standard as it was from the factory.
Last service was an Inspection 2 (it was only actually due an oil service but I preferred to have a full service done, worth paying the extra to get everything checked IMO), there's approx 6,000 miles until it's due it's next (oil) service. MOT valid until November 2018.
Price is £11,000 ono. I'm based in Radcliffe (just north of Manchester). If you're looking for an unabused well loved car, this is it.
Here's the spec:
57,000 miles
Full Service History
MOT'd until November
2 previous owners
56reg (registered December 2006)
Colour - Ruby Black (it's black, however when you get it in right light the paint has a slight red sparkle to it, it's a really nice touch which most people wouldn't ever notice)
3.0 SI Sport
Full black leather interior
M Leather Seats (full electric memory seats and heated) - VERY minor bolster wear
M Multi function steering wheel
MV2 18 inch alloys with Bridgestone runflats (all in good condition)
Factory CD player (I currently have my own Pioneer stereo in it but i'll get that removed prior to sale)
Auto wipers
Auto lights
Air con
Headlight washers
Factory fitted sun protection glass on rear windows (really helpful when it's sunny or someone has bright headlights behind you!)
Rear parking sensors
Alarm/immobilser
Central locking
Traction control
Cup holders
I do have the OEM BMW parts to fit cruise control too, I meant to have it fitted but never got around to it. If I can find the parts I’ll throw them in too (I’ve just moved so everything is in boxes)
(There's probably other things I've missed off, i'll update the post if/when I remember more details)

Lovely looking car OP. (Mind you I'm somewhat biased as my 1st Coupe was a December 06 in Ruby Black)!
You can just see the Ruby effect in a couple of your photos - I never managed to capture that when I had mine.
Are you sure it has Xenons though - the photo of the interior shows a headlight height adjuster next to the light-switch but OEM Xenons don't have that as they self-level.
Please don't take that as a criticism, but you don't want to mislead any potential buyers (because you'll no doubt get grief if you do).
Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for the heads up! Always thought it had xenons as the light from the headlights is white rather than having that yellow tint like standard bulbs. I'll take your word for it though re: the adjuster, post editedMr Tidy wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 8:58 pm Lovely looking car OP.

No problem - maybe someone changed the bulbs for something a bit better!razorsharp192 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 9:15 pm

Seeing yours was like a trip down memory lane as my Ruby black one also had MV2s and had done 53K when I bought it!
BTW you do have the Multi-Functional Steering Wheel which was an option. As were heated seats, Cruise Control and cup-holders, but I can't tell from the photo if you have them - but if you do then mention them!

Thanks again! Didn’t realise the steering wheel was an extra (other than it being the M one). Yes got heated seats and cup holders. I do have the parts for cruise control too but never had it fitted, added those to this listMr Tidy wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 9:25 pmNo problem - maybe someone changed the bulbs for something a bit better!razorsharp192 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2017 9:15 pm

Your car is basically what I am after, but its a bit much for my budget, if you consider coming down a bit, I might be able to come up a bit, but we are starting 2K apart, so it probably wouldn't work for you. If you would consider, I am back in the country in 2 weeks and can easily come to Manchester.

Feel free to make me an offer (pm me). I’ve just looked at all the ones for sale currently on autotrader and mine is fairly priced considering the mileage, spec and condition. Don't forget mine doesn't need a service for another 10,000+ miles either (and even when it does it's only an oil service).Steely wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2017 5:59 pm Your car is basically what I am after, but its a bit much for my budget, if you consider coming down a bit, I might be able to come up a bit, but we are starting 2K apart, so it probably wouldn't work for you.

Reduced the price to £11,500. This is the cheapest SI Sport Coupe with under 60,000 miles on Autotrader.
