Z4 WANTED please.

Post by lrdisco » Mon Jan 30, 2017 12:41 pm

Hi to all.
I am looking for a summer run about for myself and the wife.
Ideally it needs to be AUTO but we are very flexible and will look at Manuals. Colour not that important.
20i/2.2/2.5/3.0 considered.
Only sort of limit is miles as we do not really want a car with more than 95,000miles.

BIG problem is that really our budget is £4000+ a bit more for the right car.
Anyone have any thing we may be interested in please call me on 07932 036327.

Thanks for any help you may give.

why are you stressing about mileage at that budget? if the car is well looked after it will continue working as it should, it'll not naturally combust as soon as it ticks over 95k.

The mileage thing is just something in my mind! I guess your right as I had a 996 garage queen and suffered no end of issues with that car from perished coolant hoses to electrical problems.
Really would consider anything well looked after. Lots on EBAY look rough.
It was through good luck that I found this site.
Thanks

Not a facelift. Must be a late run out model.
I'm happy with it though.
