2007 BMW Z4M COUPE

This BMW Z4 M Coupe is an exciting yet practical sports coupe, which boasts strong service history and a terrific factory colour scheme. Power comes from the 338bhp 3.2-litre straight-six S54 engine, which is driven through the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission. The odometer indicates 91,760 miles from new, which is fully documented.

While the factory build was completed in September 2006, it is believed that this Z4 M Coupe was a showroom demonstrator at Sytner BMW in Birmingham. It was first registered for the road in September 2007, and returned to Sytner for its running-in check two months later. The vendor acquired the car in late 2019, and has driven it sparingly since then.

The body is finished in striking Interlagos Blue metallic paintwork, and is in good overall condition. There are stone chips to the front bumper, as well as a few on the bonnet and front wings. A very small soft dent is also present on the nearside rear wheel arch crease. While the front bumper may have previously been repainted, the rest of the body finish is believed to be the factory paint. The vendor has recently had the front grilles repainted back to the factory appearance, and the whole car has been given a clay bar, machine polish, and ceramic coat treatment.

Its wheels have been upgraded to the 19-inch Style 163M alloys as used on the E46 M3 CSL model. Combined with the set of Eibach lowered springs, they give the car a terrific stance, though they would benefit from refurbishment in due course.

Inside, the car features M Sport seats upholstered in black Nappa leather, with electric adjustment, three-stage heating and a memory function for the driver’s side. The passenger seat is in great shape, while the driver’s seat has some discolouration on the side bolster and a few small stains on one side of the base - both of which could be remedied by re-connolising if the next owner so desired.

The other cabin features include the carbon leather trim on the dashboard and centre console, a leather steering wheel with BMW M Sport tri-colour stitching, and embossed ‘M’ monograms in the headrests. BMW’s Professional media system is fitted, including satellite navigation and a six-disc CD changer. The car also has cruise control and climate control.

This is evidently a well-maintained example of the breed, having been serviced regularly, with more than a dozen stamps in the book from various BMW main dealers and dedicated marque specialists.

Its last scheduled maintenance was at Arden BMW Maidstone in September 2019 at 90,451 miles. This comprised a full Inspection 1 service, including replacement of the valve shims and adjustment of the clearances. The battery was also replaced new nuts were fitted on the centre exhaust mounts. A full Vehicle Health Check was completed during the service, which resulted in no advisories.

The previous service was at BMW specialist Deutsch Tech in July 2018 at 83,100 miles, which was an Inspection 2 visit. In April 2016, a full Remus exhaust system was fitted, including a new middle silencer and back box. The spark plugs were renewed by Deutsch Tech at 64,902 miles, when the cam cover gasket was also replaced.

The most recent MOT test was on 8 March 2021 at 91,704 miles, carried out at BMW specialist JWS Developments, which resulted in a first-time pass with no advisories whatsoever. The Pirelli P Zero tyres at the front have 6mm-7mm of tread remaining, while a pair of brand-new Pirelli P Zero tyres has also been fitted on the rear axle since the photos were taken.

Accompanying the car is the original leather pouch containing the owner’s manual, various user guides and the stamped maintenance record. Two original keys are also present.

This BMW Z4 M Coupe is an exhilarating driver’s car in a desirable factory colour, which is in sound mechanical order. The car will be handed over with a fresh 12-month MOT certificate and fitted with new rear tyres, so it will be ready to relish on the road immediately.
