Well I'm pressing it all the way to 7k
You get more noise with a fast throttle opening.

I'm trying to upload a couple of videos but them don't seem to want to upload.
Hi Simon, you will have to upload them on YouTube mate then post a link on here. The forum software cannot manage videos, I think I'm nearly correct in saying. (don't know the technical terminology). Uploading to YouTube is easy, and fairly quick if you have decent broadband speed.

Do you have an aftermarket exhaust? I find with a free flow exhaust the induction noise is different than compared with a stock exhaust.

Not that I'm selling but what would you guys say the car is worth? Obviously 12 months MOT (no advisories) very nice condition and everything works, 101k and history. As we know she is a very solid car in need of very minor TLC.
And there you go, entering the crap shoot area of the "what's my car worth"? Whatever a buyer will pay will be the correct answer and it doesn't matter what country you are in! JIM

Well as I say she's not for sale so it's immaterial. I'm just curious and I value the opinion of those on the forum.
I realize that @Simon Blythe but that is the type of response you can expect! Not trying to discourage you by any means just being realistic after reading so many posts that ask this question of others. There are so many variables involved that it's come down to what someone will pile up in your hand at the end of the day, which after watching and reading your post isn't necessary soon!! No harm intended Simon!! JMHO JIM
There seems to be a huge range of prices for 2.8 Z3s at present. Am considering a 2.8 as a commuter car so am looking regularly. From what I have observed, the range of advertised prices seems to be £2K to £10K, with the mean around £4.5K. Actual sale prices may be a bit lower than this. Value is of course generally set by the buyer (what he is prepared to pay for a given car).
Unless selling or buying suggest don't worry about the value, just enjoy!

Well I'd say she's about finished - totally OEM apart from the induction kit. With the arrive of the Z4 I actually thought about selling her.....then I took her out for a checky blast
They look good together Simon, and you can see why I did the rear light mod on my Z4 when you see them side by side.. No symmetry on the Z4, looks awful. That red light on the O/S looks like I did two weeks ago.
