Love Merlot Z4s - and it looks like you have a light interior too Great combination. :thumbsup: Just a shame they never did Merlot on the Coupe! :(

Not sure if you may have seen it, but there is a Z4 meet planned for 9 a.m. on 19 February at Newlands Corner, Nr. Guildford (Full details under the Events heading).

If you are free come along and meet some other local owners.

Lovely. I'm biased though as I have a merlot also.
2004 Merlot 3.0i SE. Pretty sure I'd rather drive it than polish it.

Nice looking Zed - looks like there's enough Merlots for your own thread (probably already is one)

Yes great colour. Nearly brought one myself last year which was the same colour but too many dinks and dents.

Welcome to the forum and what a nice motor you've got yourself. It would look even better if you got some nicer wheels on. The 16's aren't massively popular. That said, if you want a comfy ride then they're perfect. :thumbsup:

Thanks folks for all your positively delightful replies. It's great to feel acknowledged in any new enterprise and you've certainly ticked all the boxes in this regard.
If you could enlighten me, I'm interested in alternative wheel "looks", but completely stumped when seeing the various suggestions. I've done all the racing I want to do in my short life: Donnington, Brands Hatch, Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb and Goodwood with my complete (physical) body intact, so anything for a comfortable ride.
Also thanks for pointing out that it is MERLOT!!
Thanks again.
