That's my thought on it Rob,

Trying to help the OP out as anything extra than the Part Ex price is better than taking a part Ex on it.

I got offered £3700 for my 2006 3.0si against a newer z4 :(
It's tough out there!

That was an ouch Part-Ex price for your 3.0, 2006, Si Smartbear.. :cry:
Almost brings tears to your eyes, I'm sure..

If that was the case for your later model, 3.0 Si, then I'd already suspected the dealer figure for this 2.2 Se will be circa £3,000..

Best of luck with the sale though OP :thumbsup:

Colour - Maldives Blue - a few stone chips as to be expected at this age but no rust!

Roof - Black no rips with the motor relocated to the boot so no more rust issues :D

Engine - 2.2 Straight 6 - Serviced about 1500 miles ago including new plugs. Vanos seals done last year by myself and DISA confirmed as in good order (cleaned the throttle body at the same time).

Has some service history main dealer and independent - it runs as sweet as a nut :wink:
Mileage - 79000 ish (its my daily driver but I only live 4 miles from work)

It had new discs pads and calipers at the front plus lollipops the year before last plus a full brake service (done by me). Also had the diff and gearbox oil replaced this year by a local BMW specialist and it had full brake fluid change last week at the same place.

Fitted the all important stubby antenna :D

Wheels - 18 Inch refurbished staggered MV2's (brought from Mr Wilks) with Vredstein Ultrac Sessanta rubber. No scuffs at all and lots of tread left.

Interior - Retrofitted Black leather manual seats - light scuffing on drivers bolster but no damage. Also got Machine Monkey aluminium handbrake, gear lever and radio knob (I have the originals if you wants to put them back). Will come with a CD changer - not yet fitted and wiring loom for fitting cruise control (no switch).
Aftermarket wind deflector fitted that works really well.

Just had it re coded at ZedFest so the roof will go up as well as down on the remote and you can close the windows with the ignition key removed. Alarm also now gives audible beep when armed.

Not been smoked in as far as I know (certainly not in the last 3 years)

This has been my daily driver since I got it and has been ultra reliable. Currently returning 29 mpg on my daily commute (10 mins either way)

I can let you have more pictures if required.

Looking for £3500 but its got to be gone by Wed 27/09/17 when I part ex it :wink:

I am in Doncaster

Thanks
Chris

What are you hoping to run in the hill climb? I was at Loton this past weekend, considering entering a few sprints and hills with a mk3 focus RS in the notts sports car club championship next year!

on topic, is your z4 manual or auto?

Hi, aluminium monkey gear knob, so I'd assume it's a manual :thumbsup:

£3.7k that's appalling .. had it been to the moon and back and scrambled all over the moonscape ?

Nope, 97k with a shot blasted nose & needing new rear tyres soon-I had only just fitted a new waterpump to it & it had a gaptec module & zhp gear shift.
I reckon it was still easily worth £6k, proven by the fact I sold it for £5k in 2 hours on here :thumbsup:
If something is priced keenly it should sell.
