The only value worth noting is the one you put on it mate. Good looking car is that.

I take it it's a 1.9? Unfortunately they don't fetch as much as 6 cylinder models but it's lovely mileage and looks great. I would say £2000-2500 due to condition and mileage and a good time of year to sell a roadster.

Looking at the pics its a 1.9 and early so more likely an M44 which is good, however 1.9s seem to struggle when it comes to value so IMO around the 2k as its so nice

I'd start at about £2250 , as she looks so good and you can always come down in price , the 1.9 m44 is a nice car to drive and quite nippy on the tight twisty roads I think they handle better than the bigger 2.8 until you hit the straights of course

i have a 1.9 and a 2.8... the 2.8 is not on the road yet, but love driving my little 1.9... been up and down the country most of the year and go to lots of events in it... could you keep both ? you have the best of both worlds then.. theres quite a few have 2 or more z3's the hard part is justifiyng it and of course keeping two on the road...

Hi.
If it's as good as it looks and mechanically sorted without problems in the pics I would go for £2,695 just take a look at prices on Pistonheads nothing in good condition much less only cars needing lots of work are less and will end up costing more than a good one to start.

My cars very similar the bodywork is mint as is the mechanical items 80k fsh all bills from new.
For instance I played £2,400 for mine but have spent 1k on it because I wanted it perfect replacing lots of wear and tear items so she is now in good shape runs like a dream no problems at all turn the key and drive.
That's where I would pitch mine when she goes up for sale.
Good luck with your sale.
Tracy. :)

Dont undervalue it. I just paid £1700 for my M44 with 64k miles but, I think I will end up spending another £1k to bring it up to condition. I wish I had simply bought a better one in the first place as the spend is going to be parts only with my time and effort for free. A couple of years ago, I had a 2.0 six which I loved but, the M44 is the better drive and more engaging though that is just my opinion. If at all possible, I would say keep it as these cars are beginning to be appreciated for what they they are.

Many thanks very kind of you.
But true but she is mint for a 22 year old car both visually and mechanically .
When the times comes to say goodbye someone won't have to spend any money on her if they don't want to she is just a genuine unmolested car.
