Low Mileage Z3 1999 2.8 for sale

Post by Neal P »

Thinking of changing to a Z4M so I am selling the Z3, lovely car and drives great. Full service history with recent new brakes & discs all round. Silver with black hood in good condition, dark blue leather. Hard top with cover, wind deflector and Tonneau cover. Advertised on piston heads, first add so wasn't really sure what to ask for it, open to offers obviously.

Thanks for the comments. It has done 53k miles, just tried to edit the pistonheads ad and although it updates in the summary it doesn't in the main ad that the link takes you to :head:

Update - Reduced to £4750, plenty of interest from PH but no offers, the only good news is that it has now done 57k, mange to get a couple of weeks at home and the first real driving I've done in ages :lol:

Your PH ad has expired and you could do with a better description than just a couple of lines with the bare minimum description.

Could be why you have not had any interest :(

Ad definitely needs more in the description and some better pictures...

I personally won't spend any time on ads which have short descriptions or few pictures.

Do you really think that having clean mirror bases would be a deel breaker on buying a Zed ?

They are pretty good actually, one has a few bubbles in the paint but repair is very easy.

Nope - just a pointless spam comment (after all have you ever seen an advert for a car with a picture of mirror bases?!). Our neighbour has a Z3 that lives outside in all weathers and the mirror bases look fine, certainly not rotten. Far more important things to look at when looking to purchase a car.

Good luck with the sale - a Z4M looks fantastic value for money - if they drop much further in value I'd seriously be tempted by one!

You really should find out more about the car before commenting. Mirror bases are made in aluminium, so will not rust. From another thread FYI Z's are built in America not Germany.

Bill I think your comment is unwarrented and should be removed, if you have nothing to offer this site other than stupid suggestions and insults why are you using it ? :evil:
