Finally got My Z4

Post by BlastDK » Fri Jun 23, 2017 9:03 pm

Hey everyone,

I am pretty new to the forum, however I made a few post some months back in order to figure out which zed i should go for.
I decided to go for the 3.0si version and started looking around and trying a few.
I finally found this lovely 3.0si Roadster with only 66.000 km ( 41000 miles ) on the clock from 2007. Paid around 12000 pounds for it
I think that was a decent deal. Car is close to mint condition and has been serviced at the dealer where it was bought ever since.
I am the 3rd owner of the car.

Since I got it I have almost taken in for a spin everyday after work, its so addicting and I think my wife thinks I am crasy :)
I am lucky to be based in Switzerland so that provides beautiful seneries and wonderful twisty roads.

Needless to say I am one very happy man.

So here are some pictures for all of us to enjoy.

Welcome to the forum. Looks like you found a great Z4. I do believe the monthly photo competition just got a whole lot harder. 8) :wink:

The car dirves really good. still getting to know it better. spend around 1000km in it so far. all have been a real joy.

I am up for a photo challenge :) I will search for that.

heheh yes true the scenery kinda steals the show. Every time I am in the mountains it just takes my breath away.
it never gets boring..

sometimes its a real challenge because a part of me really just wanna cruise a long enjoying the views.
another part of me want to really push the car around the bendy roads, leaving little time to check the views.

Welcome to the forum, stunning car, stunning scenery. You could plan a trip to the UK and meet us all at Zedfest if you want a good run out in your new toy.

Wow that would be really cool. Just checked it on maps. its a solid 12-13 hr drive to go there but could be fun to see a lot of Zed´s and Zed owners for a nice gathering. do you do this every year? could maybe plan something for next year.

Thanks for sharing.

It has been run by mac27040 for a couple of years now, at his family mill and as long as he's happy to organise it again next year, I can't see why not. If it is on next year, get in early and book a nice room at the Link hotel, nearby. Or you can rough it in a tent.
