Time has come to sell my z3. I'm in mid wales so wondering if it's worth putting on ebay as I am miles from most buyers.
166,000 2.0L so decent engine but mileage might put off some buyers.

Was hoping for around £1k. Does that seem a bit optimistic or might the good weather bring put people wanting them?
Thanks

Mot until april next year. A few rust bubbles on the rear arches. The liquid wrap isn't great and wheels could do with a spray.
I got it as a project and was working my way through the jobs.
It's no show car but a cheap way for someone to get into wind in their hair driving and a great community

I think I’d be nearer the £1,000 than £1,500. But somewhere in that range.

Mid Wales is lovely but as Richard suggests, it’s a flippin long way for most people to get to. Some parts are 2 hrs from South Wales. And it’s not densely populated either. So catchment area for interest is more limited than many places.

Fair chance you will sell it on ebay, I have sold daily drivers that I didn't part exchange on there, the fee they charge when sold is just about acceptable. What about Gumtree quite a few cars on there. Just had a look at your picture, 1k probably too high be prepared to drop from that given the mileage and general appearance.
