Anybody know the car offered by Independent Motor Co?

Only 46k on the clock and a desirable colour up for £12,950 - what's the catch?????

Thats the going rate for a roadster and maybe a wee bit strong for an 2006 car

Really?

After looking on here, Autotrader and z4-forum I'm struggling to find a non black one without 60k + miles under £15 - £16k.

Yep, my friend is selling his 46k Indigo Blue one with all the toys for around that mark I'm sure.

I actually have a '56 plate in Silver/Grey that will be for sale soon with only 35k on the clock. It will be under the £15K mark.

That is what i would expect, but a dealer offering one for under £13k was good going I thought.

It does seem low from a dealer.....time of year perhaps?

I had the choice between a Z4 3.0i at a fiver under £9k or the Z4M coupe for £14k - I had my usual man maths inner debate and the deciding factor was this, when i'm old and grey, do I want to look back on my life as being brilliant at saving or having owned the best car I could have.

Hence my need for a V8 next. scratchchin

That is very true although I have already owned both the 3.0 and the M so I cannot really use that to justify it although they man maths is making a good job of it.

With my other half expecting in less than two weeks there cannot be many people that swap an Audi Q7 for a 2 seater roadster! hehe

Does seem fairly cheap although if it needs a few bits doing I.e tyres, brakes (usually needed around 35-45k miles) and a service ( ins II is around that mileage) plus tax at £475 then it adds up pretty quick.

When I was looking I found most needed some bits doing so I purchased from BMW and got 2 years warranty with the car, etc as it didn't work out much more expensive and probably worked out cheaper than if I had brought from an Indy/Private and purchased warranty yearly.
