Goodbye to a great E85 Z4. Hello E89.
Today I'm travelling from Newcastle to Ripon to trade in my old 2006 E85 2.5 for a 2011 E89 Z4 2.5 23i sDrive M Sport Highline Edition Auto. The deals been done at Harvey Coopers in Ripon.
If anyone is in the market for a Z4 2.5 Sport 177hp Manual 64K Sapphire Black Red Oregon Leather then give Harvey Coopers a ring. I've know idea what price they will be selling it for.
I've owned the car for 3 1/2 years and in that time I've replaced the 108's and the RFT with a set of genuine BBS 18" CHR''s running on Vredestein Sessanta Tyres. I had the drivetrain geometry done and the car drives perfectly. I also had a new hood motor installed in the boot,so no more worries about that. The car has been great, not even a light bulb needed replacing. It has full Service History.
I don't work for the dealer in any way, and I don't know if they will be putting the car on the forecourt as its over 10 years old and their insurance company will not offer an extended warranty on the car.
The car registration ends in BHA (Brighton and Hove Albion)
The leather is spotless and the paintwork has 11 years of wear, although I did clay bar and polish quite often.

Was wondering why no pics of the new car, but I guess this is more of an advert to sell the old one

Odd Advert. If that is the case then the OP needs to add the selling price.

Welcome to the club No doubt you will now suffer all the usual comments being the new owner of an E89 when you start posting about what a good choice you have made by switching. You know it makes sense or at least you soon will. Hope to see you out and about in gods country with the roof down in the sun

Yep I've traded it in,its not an advert just a guide to anyone who might be interested in buying a good honest reliable car.
I drove 60 miles home and was really impressed, very smooth, and powerful enough for me, the auto box and flappy paddles are great.
The E85 is a great sporting car, but the E89 has improved and been developed into more of a touring GT.
Here's my new one, oh and I got lucky with the number plate !
