These were quite limited numbers right ?

Like the look of them....particularly in black/ CSLs - sub £15k car might be a good buy ?

Chat to the previous owner of your car, he loved his Z4M. Think he regretted selling it tbh.

I use to have one and loved it.

Great cars, not as quick(certainly in slower speed corners) or balanced as the CSL, but a bit more modern and probably cheaper to run.
Regarding the drive, a bit more under steer on initial turn in, you have to use the throttle more to get the front to turn in and when exiting corners. Initially the limits seem quite low, but on track it's surprising capable. The Z4M Coupe requires more driver input to drive fast and ultimately isn't capable, needing a bit more aggression when pushing on , but it's not far off CSL's pace and hugely enjoyable to peddle, proper old school RWD car.

Prices have been dropping steadily for a while, don't see any reason why this shouldn't continue. The high running cost and £460+ road tax puts many off.

I'd probably have another and would sort some decent suspension and grippy rubber, the chassis is incredibly stiff and makes a good base for a project
