Hi RoyYep it’s my old Z3, bit surprised but that’s life. Would buy it back at the right price but a dealer wouldn’t let it go for what I’d pay. Win some lose some. Good luck to new owner, it’s still looking great. Really hope someone on here will recommend it to a friend who’ll get the most out of it even if a bit overpriced, but like I ve said before “it’s only worth what someone is prepared to pay.” I got no gripe having got what I asked for it plus I’ve got a well looked after and great little coupe. Say no more!!!!!! I

Most everything you want/need to know has been posted on here at some time or other. If your really interested go and have a look and test drive,then get full inspection for piece of mind. I would buy it back but not for that amount of money because realistically that model and age plus mileage should only fetch about £3500 although some with really low miles are going for up to £5000 but only if your prepared to pay that much. Mods are only for those who like me want to make car more to their liking but don’t usually help resale value unless you know the car and owner. Hope that answers some of your questions remembering it’s been out of my ownership for nearly a year now. If you decide to buy it then feel free to contact me.Hi Roy
Great looking z3 in my opinion with some tasteful mods. Be great to know a little more about the car when you get a moment. Seems a lot of time and investment has gone into it.
Are you local to me near Mansfield then?Thanks Roy. Looks like a great example and nice to see the pics on the forum. It still looks great from the pics in the advert. Will definitely take a look.
Hi Mac, sorry nearly forgot to reply as so much going on over this post. Didn’t think so many people would remember it. Mac if I had your money I’d buy it back tomorrow.@Rha do you want to buy it back?
A lot if us on here know the car well me included and it's a fantastic car. It's definitely one to go for it it's your thing but as already said it's over priced. I'm on the doorstep if you'd like any help.![]()
Price and value are different things to different people. I'd wager a lot of our cars have cost us more than the £5.5k that Rha's old car is currently up for.
A paint job, replacement wheels, sports seats, interior mods etc soon get the numbers scrolling upwards, on top of the purchase cost.. My black zed has cost me well over £5.5k as it stands now.
Original purchase price £2995.00, Hard top and fitting kit £600, Roll hoops £300, BBS RK500 wheels £500, engine rebuild after Euro adventure £700ish, Replacement engine after my rebuild wasn't successful £1400 ........ plus umpteen £s on other bits and pieces and I'm not afraid to say it's still not as nice as Rha's old car.
If you like it and you want it and if you can afford it, then buy it, we're only here once
well done, you have a cracking Z, one of the nicest I have seen, in fact I had a nibble at Roy to sell it to me at one point but he was having none of itI knew a couple of beers on a Sunday late afternoon could lead to trouble. The deal is done! Some movement on the asking price but let’s just say I wish I had seen Roy selling it when he did!
That said I’m chuffed to be the next owner. I know some prefer standard but for me I am very happy to take advantage of the effort Roy has put into the car. I’ll send some pics over once I pick it up next weekend!
Great to hear such a fine and cherished car is going to a good home again.
Tony.
Thanks chaps, appreciated. I’ll certainly look after and enjoy!well done, you have a cracking Z, one of the nicest I have seen, in fact I had a nibble at Roy to sell it to me at one point but he was having none of it
