A Z4 to steer clear of, literally..

Post by Ducklakeview » Wed Oct 25, 2017 9:08 pm

Was pointed to this earlier on Ebay by Jamie_z4 loos cheap enough..

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/362140231360

Looks cheap enough at 99p start, doubt it's as simple as they say to repair the EPS though..

Anyway, what the seller isn't telling you, is that it's a cat D.....

I sent him a message pointing out in a diplomatic way the errors in his listing. Reply in poor spelling, to be expected really, to go away.

As adverts go that one is bottom of the pile. I would dare to assume the Zed is in similar condition. :(

If it simply needs booking in to BMW to ‘clear the code’ then why hasn’t he done so to make it easier to sell?

Not stating it’s a cat D.

Some people are just total fuckwits, peddling their heaps of junk without giving a toss. :x

Looks silver underneath, and the wrap is peeling like a bitch at the driver's door rubber. There is also what looks like a dent in the OSR wtr by the door, now where have I seen another like that lately??

For the same reason people never bother to get the aircon regassed, even though that is all it ever seems to need! :headbang:

This is largely what keeps me well away from anything on ebay that isn't new! :roll:
