So I have been lurking for a while and thought I ought to make the effort..... So I bought my Z4C a couple of months back and wished I had done it sooner. I went for a coupe in Montego Blue with Pearl Grey leather - a great combo I think - although the seat bolster will need some TLC at some point. 83k on the clock - but lots of history and tbh mileage doesnt worry me (I once had an Audi A4 that was still going strong at 250k miles). So far I have changed oil, gearbox oil, front drop links, front arbs, front pads and discs, rear springs, RTABs - oh and a ZHP knob....... :roll:

Welcome OP - the best E86 colour combination possible (OK, so I may be biased). :rofl:

Yours could almost be the twin of mine apart from the wheels! Mine is on 82K miles, and I'm waiting for delivery of the ZHP I ordered at the weekend.

Enjoy! :driving:

ETA: My ZHP arrived in the post this morning, so it got fitted before I went out. Much better - probably what it should have had when it was built. :o
