To be honest though have you ever seen a hairdresser in a Z3? I haven't..

sold my z3 last year - to a female hairdresser.honest!

trigg35

but will it sell at this price.....i would say £4250 is a better starting point in todays market if you want a sale.best of luck though

trigg35

hi i dont think anyone has read your post properly.you say you have interest from family and friends who i guess like the car as it is and want to know what its worth.id say it depends on how much you paid for the new one ie the cost to swap,how much you paid for this one and how nice you feel towar...

trigg35

i think people are reading too much into the i.my 2.2 sport had 2.2i on it.it wasnt a ltd edition.probably just the badge that came to hand at the time it was made

trigg35

im afraid thats a typical sign of head gasket failure.have you pulled the dipstick out and looked for mayo on the end and looked under the oil filler cap for a mayo like substance? having said that i had mayo under the filler cap on my z3 and some on the end of the dipstick which was down to short j...

hi
i sold my 2001 51 plate 2.2 sport,same colour as yours but black leather,air con e/hood etc with fsh,13 months mot and 53000 miles for 4800 last year and was very lucky to get that.to be honest i think £4000 in the currect climate is more realistic to get any bites.depends how long you want to wait

trigg35

sold my van on ebay -classified add.you pay about 15 quid for the advert and thats it.no final value fees etc like you would pay on a normal listing like a dvd etc.otherwise it would be very expensive given the amounts involved. sold my z3 a month ago using just piston heads.£10 for the advert and c...

trigg35

im pretty sure car prices are higher here.due to lower earnings older cars have a higher value.when i got the z3 people thought i was rockafella!probably why i sold mine straight away for £4900 last month when others on this forum are having a hard time shifting them. also due to the low population ...

trigg35

sold my z3 as im buying a flat in crantock.i live in cubert.the bowgie is my local

trigg35

before the z3 i had never had a six cylinder car so it was something i wanted to do once and thought if i didnt hurry up i never would as it will only be rich people who can afford them in the near future.think it will be a long long time though before bmw stop making the straight six.anyway for me ...

trigg35

got £4900 for my 2001 2.2 with 53500 miles three weeks ago.would think it is worth £5500 if you can find a buyer at this time of year.sounds like a great example

Mines a production line 3.0i sport and has slats under the front bumper?[/quote]

perhaps its had a new bumper put on at some point.....

trigg35

hi
mine was the same as yours - 51/2.2 sport.53500 miles.put it on piston heads for £5250 and took £4900 for it so your price is about right.luck of the draw that someone in your area wants one.good luck

trigg35

put it on pistonheads for a tenner and try for a bit more money.just got twice what your asking for my 2001 2.2.i like the colour of yours too.looks great.how is this car still for sale???????????

trigg35

hi
im asking £90 inc delivery and thats with the locking kit so about half the new price.however i had a pm from someone yesterday so if its too much for them it will be offered to anyone else who is interested.will wait and see if they want it first

trigg35

not yet.as i recall in top condition due to lack of use.i simply could not be bothered getting it off at 6.45 in the morning before driving to work.my z3 got used mainly in winter as i do crazy hours in the summer so it never really sat long enough for me to warrent covering it up.cover comes in a b...

trigg35

my z3 has now sold to free up some money for other things.bit of a shock as the buyer had cash and its gone.was a great car and its gone to a good home.i think the new lady owner will look better in it than me! anyway im sure out of habit i will still look at this site but thanks for all the help pe...

trigg35

i wasnt expecting much but put mine on piston heads on sunday and have a couple coming to look at it on thursday.

trigg35

i know what you mean but i sold my van on ebay and they charge a flat £15 to list it - no fees after that so no final value fees etc.most sale seem to be sub 3 grand

trigg35

not so bad if its a keeper but if like me you have it up for sale its not good.mine is up for £5250 and i think the chances of a phone call are so small ive not bothered to wash it yet.if i get a viewer ive got my work cut out! i think if i want to get it shifted 4 grand is realistic for my 51 plate...

trigg35

any luck selling it yet?just wondered as mine is pretty much the same only it has black leather rather than black/red.started mine at £5250.hoped to get £5000 for it but im thinking with the weather as it is i will be very lucky.could keep until spring but with tax and insurance due in the new year ...

trigg35

hi tim
if you swap your car in for a new one every two years do you not lose thousands?im not being critical.friends with lease / company cars have new ones every three years but i imagine it to be costly to change a car bought with your own hard earned money so often?

trigg35

or try ebay.this sounds like the sort of thing you want

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-DVB-T-Dig ... 2eb5652d92

trigg35

not an expert but.....think the anlg tuner is in the boot and needs a new digital tuner.think prices ranged from £300 - £750 to get this sorted a year or so ago.guess it may be cheaper now but its still not that cheap.and to think you can buy a freeview box from about £14!phone some ICE shops in you...

trigg35

hi
very nice car.think you should let people know if its a 2.2 or a 3.0.im thinking 2.2 as no headlamp washer jets?
good luck with the sale

trigg35

sunny all day in newquay.even did 3 miles in the car (with the roof down).went to the beach but the surf wasnt worth getting wet for so my van had a day off.

trigg35

well i guess the auto will be a bit slower and use more fuel but the z3 hasnt got the best gearbox/clutch setup.some will say that theirs is fine but not a week goes by without the issue being raised with people trying a different clutch hose/gear knob/delay valve removal etc to try and improve the ...

trigg35

nice looking car.not sure if i would go as far as half sensible. its an alfa.you brave man! i have never been into small cars but i love the alfa mito.have not read any reviews but i can see myself in one of those in a few years if they prove to be any good over the long term.the best looking small ...

Simon, I sold my 2 litre (2000 on an X plate with 56K, part history and advisories on 3 tyres) for £4500 last week. It was advertised at 4995. Was on PH for about 6 weeks but I had about a dozen enquiries. that gives me some hope as i would really like £5000 for my 2.2 sport.51 plate 2.2 sport 53000...

trigg35

not done that many miles in two years with my 2.2. so you have spent £1250 on petrol since early last month.ouch!went to work in mine yesterday.hadnt been used for over two weeks so i thought i should as i stretched the handbrake cable once before when it sat for ages and i sometimes find the calipe...

nevermind the stereo.what are you watching.is that a bloke in ladies underwear?

trigg35

i have a 2001 2.2 sport and have had a jvc headunit in it for about 18 months.choose it because it has usb so i can put a micro usb stick in the slot(very small)and play my music from mp3s.big thing for me was orange illumination to match dash lights and with 30,000 colour options you can have any c...

trigg35

thats good then.thanks for replies will try the 10-1 ratio.its mainly at the bottom of the roof under the back window where the hood and the rubber edge meet

trigg35

read on here somewhere that milton is good for cleaning the green that has appeared on my hood.bought some today when i was in boots.anyway it smells a bit like bleach and i wondered if anyone had used it and if they dilluted it down as per the instructions for baby bottles etc

trigg35

just noticed your talking about a z1 rear light.sorry

trigg35

on a car of this age and value i would try bmw breakers,ebay and part finder for something like a rear light.im sure it would not be too hard to source.although the cars are worth £3000 - £6000 approx the parts from a dealer are based on what the car was worth when new and with inflation added ie a ...

when you say beanie with visor have you not seen/heard of peaked beanies?

i did look around to see if the people behind had noticed the pool appearing at the back of my car.trying to find the positive side i now know that my drain hole isnt blocked and is working well! £18 well spent - not

trigg35

i know there is lots of debate about injection/fuel system cleaners but i read about one called bg44k and i was convinced enough to try it.anyway its not cheap - £18 for a tin not much bigger than a coke can.so ive had it at home for over a week and was waiting for the next time i drove the z3 to go...

trigg35

reminded me of the time my boss borrowed the car(sport model with the brushed aluminium dash).said it was fantastic but asked if id made the centre console myself - told him it was a standard bmw part on this model.he was sure it was homemade!

trigg35

sold for £4788.that was a really nice car.i loved it

trigg35

my 2.2 sport which is a 51 plate has done 53000 miles with fsh,recent tires and brakes and insp 2 at 47000.has aircon,e roof etc and it may be up for sale next month.im living in hope that i will get £5000 for it.

trigg35

i love it.the colour and leather suit the retro feel of the car.sounds like a nice genuine car

trigg35

theres a few down here.4 in the small village where i live.never spoken to the other owners but i think the lady with the 3.0 sport in dakar yellow is what brought the car to my attention.was thinking mr2 soft top before this but im 6 foot 2 and would of looked like noddy.

trigg35

29 grand!!!!!!!!! ouch.and im a bit gutted that ive probably lost £1000 on mine since i got it in 2009.just sold my toyota van and got £35 less for that than i paid for it in 2008.you must have a lot more money in devon than we have in cornwall

trigg35

i would say £4000.may be a bit less.maybe a bit more.saw one at a dealer for £4650 with just over 60000 on the clock which later sold so 4 grand is my guess for a private sale.lots of variables such as where you live,time of year etc and luck really that someone near to you wants one at the time

hi the face lift is more a bum lift.the front stayed the same but from about V plate (1999?)the rear end was changed and the interior received some changes to the switchgear.its a matter of taste.some prefer the old rear end.some the new.some 1.9s were 140 bhp - the early ones i think - the later on...

trigg35

look the same as the ones in my z3 2.2 sport.think they are called sport seats?M seats have more stitching/detailing .they are not m seats.check out jontts journal where you can see m seats

nice car.just the same as mine except i have black leather.mine has done 53k too and is a 51 plate with fsh.anyway im looking to sell mine soon so can i be cheeky and ask how much it was so i have a guide price to aim for.a pm is fine if you dont wish to tell the nation!

trigg35

well ive recently swapped my 221000 mile toyota van for a newer 140000 mile one.has a nice big soft seat,a cup holder and an armrest!what more do you need.im in heaven and the z3 has not moved since i got it despite the near constant sun here in cornwall.i think my mid life crisis is nearly over and...
