First Z4

Post by Captain Vimes » Sat May 06, 2017 9:49 pm

Hi

Been a member for a couple of years whilst dithering over getting a Z4 or a Mk4 MX5 (had a Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3). Finally got around to test driving a Z4 a couple of weeks ago, and as a consequence have just bought this beauty!

Like the blue, black and grey..... but love the orange! (Particularly with a black roof)

Nice, hadn't seen this colour combo before. Maybe would have thought twice about getting black...

Looks good mate! :thumbsup:

Looks good, but what is it? Can't tell as it's been debadged and I can't spot the different models of E89 from visual clues :thumbsup: .
Congrats on the new ride, bet it's grin-factor 9 whatever's under the hood :)

Thanks chaps! Looking forward to using the forum a lot more now i'm actually a Zed owner!

It's a 20. As it will be my daily driver I couldn't really go for a 35, and whilst I would have liked a 28 there are so few about! I'll enjoy it as it is for a year or two, but will probably be looking to up the power at some point! 😉 From a little research it seems you can get the engine up to 28 spec reasonably easily.

Dark metallic grey wheels and matching roll hoops are the only other mod I have in mind at the moment.
