Yes i'm only having some fun as in truth i appreciate all Zs have plenty to offer
Ive enjoyed each & every one ive owned but the actual stand out memories & drives for me are dominated by the M car i had previously so hoping the current one lives up to it once its on the road next Saturday :driving: i do get a little drive tomorrow as its booked in at my Indy for MOT & service work this week :wink: looking forward to that after its sat in garage for 5 months :evil:
You've more patience than me :cry: If my wife doesn't bond with the E89 this summer, I can see a change coming. I've had the S54 engine, I just need a Z4 wrapped around it now :wink:
Well my thoughts 6 months ago were i knew i wanted another bite of the S54 cherry but was very aware that values could easily prevent me getting back in as the market is so fickle regarding them that no-one really knows for sure exactly when they will take off . To that end i knew it was crucial to get into one before the winter was out & fortunately i was sorted by November
Bit of a snakes + ladder year last year which most likely won't be as unpredictable as last but that could simply mean values & sale figures are above where many feel comfortable :?
Take the euro trip in E89 comfort & add the miles to that then maybe look to jump in May before the peak June / July prices hit the highs ?
Paul definitely told me he wants a 2litre zed next, he likes the economy :wink:
