Help me value this Z4

Recommended Posts

Usually I can get a pretty good accurate valuation using a few sources and the customer is usually happy but I'm stumped on this one.

 

2012 on a 62 plate, BMW Z4 2.0 20i sDrive

68,000 miles, clean enough, Leather (not sure about Nav so I'll say no for now)

AT have it at £9,500 trade, £12k retail.

Car gurus at £11.5k retail

Cap clean is £11,150 

WBAC is £10,500

I'm thinking retail is likely £11.5 - £12k so trade should be £9.5k?

Sounds like CAP Average is around £10700, Retail around 12K. If you can buy for £9.5K you can retail for 11500-750 and this should be on the low side on AT. Dark exterior colour with light leather the preferred combo for this. Some dealers wouldn't touch this engine.

White with black int. 

What’s wrong with the engine? Or why wouldn’t some go near it?

Same engine as that BMW you had with low oil pressure light. I personally sell them well.

James, when there are variances in values, its risky.... My advice would be to research thoughly then work out your retail back value, its the only true way to calculate your required ROI.

If you were standing in the ring at the block and it was put on sale at £8500 would you put your hand up for it.I don’t think I would and I am an impulsive bidder.

Also they are bad sellers, and only autos sell in M Sport trim.

I wouldn't want one....

I bid her nine grand. 

I won’t be increasing it.

Easy seller, buy it cheap and sell it cheap as plentiful and its high miles for a convertible as loads of ultra low milers out there.

There will always be someone having a midlife crisis....
