Ahhhh so your the person who bought this...Looks like you beat me to it...Stockton on tees was a bit far to arrange a viewing I think the guy had it up 2 days on P/h and sold.... It looks awesome in the pic. :)
Yes, as soon as I saw the advert I was there like a shot as I had been searching for a Sepang for quite a while. He had quite a bit of interest so I was just lucky to get there first! :D


You have to be quick when they come up for sale...I know he kept the leather interior immaculate. I'm jealous now. I've had to settle for a z4m coupe in alpine white which is the only two colours I would have consider.
Yes the whole car is immaculate, and I'm keeping it that way, however, I draw the line at sitting on a towel to protect the leather, like the previous owners did! Alpine white is a great colour, I don't think you settled for anything inferior there :D

oh really.....that explains it then....did you get the towel thrown in with the car?....lol

don't get me wrong the car looks fabulous in white.... however I think the bronze for example brings out the lines better and the colour you don't see in other cars let alone the Z4, where as white is some what 'common'.

+1 for Bronze, saw it on a M6 a while back. Stopped me in my tracks.

Not the same colour, but had a bit of a moment staring at this at the Paris motorshow a few years back. I'm down with brown...

I don't think the gold alloys go well with that bronze 911.

There's an mk 2 Audi TT in bronze that parks up near where I work I'll try to take a snap of it.

Very nice though Imi, yours must be one of very few with Alpine White/Imola combination.

What I meant was white is so common on the road now you see Corsa, Astra and even a fair amount E89's it takes the wow factor away but for us guys we recognise the rarity to see on in a Z4M, hence why I bought the car.

Just to put in context my dad had a BMW 735i (1989) in white which he bought back in 1995 and that car was the talk of the town it had OEM spoiler....that's right 7 series with OEM spoiler and OEM BMW BBS wheels and the smell of the leather interior..... modern cars certainly don't use 100% leather. I remember the local shop owner telling me at the time he'd never seen a car let alone a BMW in white...you wouldn't have somebody say that now.

My dad also used to have a Nissan 200ZX in white again very rare back then bloody fast car.....I think that's where I get my desire for performance cars.

Nice, Mylor Bridge, I sometimes park up my Monaco blue mc there to go for a run. Will post up some pics when it's clean.

Yes!

My girlfriend's parents used to live there. I loved the place. Wish I could live there. Nothing better than a blast around the countryside in the Z4M followed by a pint of Rattler and a burger at one of the many seaside pubs!
