Seems like a good bit of profit in that for someone to sort the issues and sell it on. I would be extremely dubious that a business that specialises in Z4 sports cars aren't wanting to fix this themselves and sell it for a higher price..."There are couple of mechanical issues, this includes ABS light is on, seat belt warning randomly goes on and the car pulls to the right."

I’ve already enquired. Zach’s a nice guy but I don’t think restoring Z4’s to this level is his bag.
I keep offering £3k on the one Binca have for sale. They aren’t bitting though. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... 1143249724
These are parts or track cars really IMO

They do this so you have no come back. Cars sold as spares repairs don’t come with any warranty and consumer rights.

Fair enough. I saw that car for sale privately for donkeys years so just assumed it was traded in. Perhaps was but not to Binca. I’ll stop insulting them then.j3nks79 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 11:15 amHe won’t have the money in it.Street wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 11:14 am I’ve already enquired.

I would imagine that the cost to get the car put right would not be worth it to sell on as retail. I think it would be one of those cars that would be good to for a person who can do the work themselves and not need to pay the labour. Also looks like it needs some cosmetic love.TheDan wrote: ↑Wed Jun 21, 2023 11:07 amSeems like a good bit of profit in that for someone to sort the issues and sell it on.

In some senses the car probably makes more sense to brake for parts sadly

£3,000 overpriced IMHO!
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.
F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

sheesh £3600 for a coupe!?! why has no one bought this yet?
i thought i was going to see a major crash repaired, no MOT wreck. but no, bodywork looks fine, MOT til october. and the last 3 MOTs passed with only minimal advisories.
that'd make a great track car. my z4 had 155,000 miles on it when i bought it, and did a dozen trackdays with no major problems.
i wish i was one of those youtubers who had a fleet of a dozen cars... i'd have bought this yesterday, but the missus would probably object to me buying another sportscar even if this one is only 3 and a half grand.
