You do realise they are priced to include the market conditions. Not like they set the price and it takes you to point out that there is a 'credit crunch' so then wipe off a few grand on haggling.

You miss the point...in a big way. I had no real issue with £21k for the Z4MC, especially given the spec. I had issue with him offering £2-3k less than bottom book for mine. Had he of offered bottom book, I'd be driving that off the forecourt this week. Ergo, he was being unrealistic.

Still, somebody will probably buy it during Jan/Feb? If not, I'll go back and buy then.

I've been lurking on pistonheads for a couple of years now and since I'm now interested in buying a z4m I will hopefully be able to contribute to this thread soon. I'm hoping to be able to obtain at least a £1500 discount from a dealer if the car is right. From what I understand since most of these cars are only 18 months to 2 years old they still have a manufacturers warranty with them so an approved used 1 year warranty isn't much of a bonus.

In march the new z4m is released so do you guys think that this will have an adverse affect on prices?
New Z4m.. I think not..a 335 is the best you will get with 301bhp. No slouch though. However No M diff and CSl brakes, I doubt if it will be as rigid as the coupe

Looks sweet!

Just watch if you have any dealing with Sandal in Wakefield, they are a bunch of neeps! I had bought 3 approved used BMW's before totally blind over the phone with no problems at all......these guys have totally put me off trusting anyone when buying a car blind.

Sorry, rant over, just thought i'd warn you about them.
