although 'boy' is probably stretching the point, but just changed to a 2008 Z4 2.5 from a TVR Chimaera and very pleased with it. Looking forward to a few crisp, sunny winter days.

Thanks all, really pleased with it. don't think they're aftermarket lights on it; they're certainly not HID or Xenons (which I wouldn't mind having fitted at some stage). I changed from the Chimaera because i've recently semi - retired and and putting fuel in when you're only doing 18mpg does detract from the fun a bit. To be fair, the only thing I'm missing from the TVR is the V8 engine noise, the Z4 is so much better in virtually every other aspect and I'm already driving it far more than I did the chimaera :)
