is this zed worth it?

Looking for a z4 roadster, like the look of this one on piston, is it over priced? Good spec? It seems so many different extras to know what to go for.

I think that is over priced.

I would be happy if i got 6k 6.5 on a great day. Mine is the same year and has more toys and less millage.

definately got the pistonhead tax on that.. £6.5 is top dollar for it imo.
Go in at 6k and see my friend.

Did think it was over priced.

I hate starting a new venture not knowing about the car.

A nice example from the looks of it.

Do agree with the others that the price is a bit high with that mileage.

Does have some nice extras though (clear facelift rear lights are £200-300 if you can source them!).

I'd offer £6K and see where it goes from there.

Plenty of good ones out there (you hardly ever see a real ropey example in fairness!).

Best of luck with the search.

No nav, although some may see that as a positive.

I paid significantly less for mine from a dealer with warranty etc. Haven't needed it but it's there.

Personally I don't like the black wheels but that's not a reason for someone else not to buy.

Too much by a long way. Leave it a week or so and the price will come down then offer £5.5 and get it for less than £6k.

top money would be £6k in my book

It looks clean and straight, although it looks like the high-powered jet hose has been used on the roof hence all the marks

Looks a bit low IMHO, 45mm down on the original height, that's got to make an already poor ride worse?

If its on coilovers it could be ok. I had just lowering springs and i didn't like it at all. Just fitted coilovers and its lower handles better and i would say more comfortable than stranded.

Currently running coilovers on my tt maybe 60mm of drop so shouldnt of thought it would be that bad.

At the end of the day, if you didn't like the ride height, you could probably swap/sell the lowering springs and replace them with OEM ones??

Not a huge detracting factor if the rest of the cars features appeal, and the price is right of course!

Let us know how you get on.

Thats the point, thats kinda the car I am after slightly modified. I will probably put it on coils at some point.
