Evening all, just bought a 53plate 3.0 Z4, manual. Seem to have bought a genuine one, older owner last 7 yrs, lots of history, refurbed108's, new Bridgestones.

Really taken with it, just sold a Chimaera and wanted a less expensive toy. So far so good.

Been reading forum for a couple of weeks . Looks like a great forum, looking forward to picking a few brains.

Off to look for a wind deflector....😎

Welcome OP. :thumbsup:

Good to hear that an ex-Chim owner is taken with a Z4 - I seem to recall there are a few former TVR owners on here.

Hope you do well with the wind deflector search - but just remember there is no such thing as a photo-police deflector, so get some posted when you stop driving! :lol:

So call off the photo police, I think I've added some now😎.

Pleased with the car. Got the wiper park fix to do, but it's cleaned up well for age. Roof is up because it was raining....in case that's another yellow card ,

Based near Lanark , Central Scotland.

Hi and welcome.

Thanks for the pics - nice car.

You do realise that Swapping the TVR for the Zed means that the RAC men will no longer be your best friends!

Mine is Maldives blue as well, same year. I get so many admiring comments on the colour as it is not the usual black, silver or grey! Really suits the car too.
