Z4 Purchase

[nickmirams]

Hi all,

I am thinking of getting a Z4 3.0 in may of this year, have around 18k to spend and was thinking.. is an 06 plate affordable with this amount?? Also as this will be 2 years old should I opt to go for one through a bmw dealer with a warrenty or buy privately and get a wannanty from elsewhere??

With the amount of 18k, what are my options

Thanks

Nick

Great car nick i have one, to see what your money will buy you go onto bmw.co.uk to the advanced search and see what you find also autotrader.co.uk will give you a good pointer as to whats on the market at what price, for sure though you need to buy sooner rather than later as prices will be starting to rise in the next few months as the clocks go forward and the spring arrives...

For £18K you may be in the realms of an early Alpina Roadster S. (2004)
Something a bit different with blinding performance and excellent reliability.

Nick,

I have just bought this-

I think it gives you a good idea of what you can get for your budget.

A two year old car will have the balance of the three year manufacturer warranty. Also use www.bmw.co.uk to find approved used cars that might suit.

Great cars by the way, we have a 3.0Si coupe and love it
