The other half who is a photographer would die if she saw these ... but she hasn't lol.

The car fits down the side of the house by about 3" each side - a bit tight ! It is easier to reverse the white Z4 as opposed to my 'old' black one or even my blue Z4M R before that ... my ageing eyesight is somewhat aided by the colour :oops:

So you have been a member of the forum for over 5 years and have only just mastered posting pics? This would suggest that there are some serious flaws in the forum's enforcement of acceptable member behaviour!

With your better half and you working together your pics and posting should be dynamite. Maybe this will produce interior pics and pics of different angles of the car? :poke:

Nice car and nice uploading of the pics by the way!! :D

Haha true, I have been a bit slack ! My wife loves cars and did a degree in photography about 10 years ago ... pro since and knows how to take a good pic - unlike me :cry:

My profile pic of the Z4M R is her and was a quick photo or two - she just instinctively knows what is going to be good ... which is I guess why she earns a living doing it :)

This is the wife's idea of snaps ... I know it's not an E89 but you get the idea of why I want her to take the pics !!

I am hoping to take the 35iS to the same location to do exactly the same type of shots as we did 5 years ago :)

Mineral white is a great colour. Always wanted that with Cohiba Brown interior

Yes, that's right :)

Taken with a long lens from the other side of the car park - with the wife lying flat on the floor to take them. It got some odd looks :D

Impressive new Zed - nice choice.

Your wife's photos - especially the second one - are equally impressive - great work! :thumbsup:
