White 326'd 3.0 Msport E89 Saying Henlo

Post by PinkPineapple44 » Sun Oct 08, 2017 3:40 pm

Hi all! Thought I'd be polite and introduce myself before posting questions on this here lovely forum.

I've had my Z4 for almost a year now and it's been great, but slowly starting to mod it a lil bit now cause I'm a bad man :wink:

Cheers

Indeed I did! It was almost exactly what I was after bar the fact I wanted red leather.

Small world :P I liked the look of this car & was going to have a look at it but bought a silver version with 19k miles instead-that Car lasted a whole month before breaking its gearbox and I’m now in a 2litre turbo zed :thumbsup:

Was it an auto? What caused the breakage?

It is Penzance, 10 points for you :thumbsup: Was a mad dump as far as me and the gf were concerned though :lol:

It was a 3litre manual e89, syncro’s got damaged somehow & it was grinding and jumping out of gear :o
Normally bulletproof of course but not impervious to bear paws :P
