It will be interesting to see where it ends up price wise. There seems to have been some pretty cheap zeds around recently.

Strange this has come up now, I've just seen a Merlot Red hardtop on ebay from a different seller.

Love the colour, shame the seller has ruined it with cheap filters on the photos

Agreed - it's misrepresenting the colour of the paintwork big time, compare it to 'underdosed' pic above.Tcochrane92 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2017 11:19 am Love the colour, shame the seller has ruined it with cheap filters on the photos

That interior really does let it down... somebody intentionally added that as option from new, why oh why!?Ducklakeview wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2017 12:07 am There have been a few on here, but God that wood trim is awful!

What I have realised from that ad is that I actually like the wood dash, its the big plastic stereo and air vents in the middle that ruins it

It's a colour that looks terrific in the sun, and a bit dull the rest of the time. I don't mind the wood/leather combo, but it suits a Bentley or Rover better than a Z4.

There aren't many Merlot around, strangely a lot seem to have the wood trim..... with optional pipe and slipper holders

Haha Yes the wood is not to everybody's taste for sure. I think it suits the paint and leather combination very well but like Fred I would say that! I don't like the tan top on that one though.
Here is mine:
