Am seriously thinking of buying this now the owner has contacted me after 4 weeks on PH and no reply.

What do I need to look for chaps? A reduction in price is a given.

It's now on Autotrader with a local garage near the owner - real registration now know to me and it's not currently S50SJB, it's on a personalised plate which checks out thus far.

Please can someone advise key things only to check.

My titanium 3 litre is perfect, but I do fancy a second M in my fold - but not a dog.

Thanks in anticipation.

Decided I would not risk buying this one.

Anyone on forum thinking about it look carefully at

Gearbox
No tread on any tyres
No evidence of work done from MOT before last to last MOT and before last MOT had 12 advisories

Other than that..........PM me.

Sounds like a good decision to walk away, the right one will come up for you I'm sure. Looks overpriced to me considering both the mileage and the work needed which you've identified needs doing, decent tyres are a good £400 for a set for starters...

There are a couple of forum members Z3M's for sale in the classifieds, the Dakar Yellow one springs to mind - have you looked at those?

I've been toying with selling mine in the near future, it isn't a minter (wasn't bought as one back in 2009) but did have 4 new Vredestein tyres and refurbed alloys go on the car last summer/less than 1,000 miles ago - drop me a PM if you want some more details. I'd be looking at a price a good chunk less than the black one you went to see and mine has 10k less miles.
