Hi All,
I've kind of jumped in at the deep end and just bought a Z4M coupe after 7years in a VW T5 1.9 van. Most I've ever spent on a car (now skint). Hopefully it's a keeper and a decent investment.

Only had it since Wed but loving it so far. It's bog standard, grey with imola leather. Lots to learn so will be having a good read around this forum.

Hope to meet up with some locals if there are meets.
Cheers Scotty
Newport South Wales.

Welcome on board Scotty. Perfect Zed to start with. Mine's still standard after 6 1/2 years. :thumbsup:

Take it easy on the gas until you get to know it, they can bite. :wink:

Cheers All,
It is a jump, so I'm taking it reasonably easy. It does hook up so far.
I don't have any money left for mods, but have never left anything std in the past, I like having a potch!
I'll sort some pics out, been a while putting them up on a forum. Scotty
