anyone fancy a bit of summer fun? (3.0i Z4 with tasty bits)

copied and pasted from another Advert - Priced @ £6750 but flexible around that number to an SXOCer
Edit - Car located in Gloucester, not Swindon!

Hopefully pics work?









Fantastic condition and great fun, but doesn't get enough use (I often need more than 2 seats, so if I can get near my asking price I'll be putting the money towards and M3/M5 - if I get silly offers I'll simply keep it for the summer and sell it in 6 months)
You will find cheaper cars, but they won't have this combination of spec, mileage, maintenance or tasteful modifications, please keep than in mind when comparing cars.

BMW Z4 3.0i SE roadster, M54 engine, Manual 6 Speed.
Black sapphire metallic with black heated sports leather interior and brushed aluminum trim.
The seats really are a nice upgrade, so much more comfortable and supportive than standard leather and being heated you can have the top down in any weather and be warm.
First registered 17th December 2004.

88,600k miles approx (will rise slightly with occasional use)

8 previous owners (Common with Z4's as often a weekend toy / second car)

Negatives:
The car is in great condition for its age but it does have a few stone chips as to be expected, mainly on the front bumper, there is a small bit of lacquer peel also on the front bumper.
There is also a slight weep from the rocker cover gasket which I shall probably sort between now and the sale, I also have purchased a complete vanos repair kit that I was planning to fit as a precaution whilst the rocker cover was off that will be included with the sale / fitted if I get the chance (price below is based on the fact I'm expecting to get the kit repaired, we can negotiate if I just supply parts but it's not a difficult job)

Let me know if you have any questions or wish to arrange to view the car.
Test drives will be from the passenger seat unless you put the cash in my hand.
No time wasters / scams or overseas buyers please

Great price. Doubt it will hang around long.

If I could have got away with a 2 seater it would have been one of these

Cheers, it really is a lot of fun, handles well, comfy etc but I've only done about 3,800 or so miles since I got it (about 18 months ago)
took a while to find the right one and this had a lot of bits done to it already that I wanted so was worth the wait.
if I don't get a close offer I'll keep for the summer and punt it off for a grand or so less in autumn. I can't justify an upgrade if I've got to give this away to get it (and I've got to spend double this to get what I consider to be an upgrade)

Pics looks like pre 2009 model.
Any detailed pics of the peeling?

[Stidi]

it's a 2004, not a 2009? I'll get a pic up

Just fitted the uprated vanos seals (including the anti-rattle rings) did the air filter, pollen filter and new iridium spark plugs whilst I was in there so all super smooth and ready to roll
