Urgent! Help needed: Z4MC for magazine photoshoot today!

Post by Fishy Dave » Thu Jan 05, 2017 4:54 pm

Hello,

In my role as the new BMWCC Z4 representative I've just been contacted by a leading car magazine who need a Z4M Coupe today at 10am (Friday 6th Feb) for a photo shoot in the Tunbridge Wells/South London area! They have a 3 car article set up with an AMG55 and a Cayman, but the Z4M they had lined up has sadly had to pull out at very short notice.
This will mostly be a static shoot, with probable short road test (note, NOT track driving!), fully insured and you will be well looked on the day, with an excellent article in a premium magazine to add to your cars history.
It can be a Z4M Coupe in any colour, but must be either completely stock or at least close to it. Probably the limit on modifications would be small suspension, induction/exhaust or wheel changes.
Please let me know asap by pm or on 07718 368173 if you can get your car to this area and I can give you full contact details of the deputy editor and features editor.

Thank you in advance, Dave :)

Sounds like a typical Evo used car piece. If anyone could do us proud and turn up with a mint polished Imola Coupe that'd do wonders to highlight how cool our cars are ;D

:) Thank you, I asked that, but no, it has to be a Coupe on this occasion.

We tend to prefer our roadster down in the south east. Must be due to the weather .

There are four ///M roadsters all within 30 minutes of tunbridge wells.

Replied to the PM, the drop location won't work for me to get back into town in time now, so will have to miss out this time.

You sure it's tomorrow? You put 6th Feb in your post :P

I would happily lend you mine, but it's rather dirty at the moment.

:poke: Yes, ok, it's today now :wink:
I think they can live with dirt as they'll need to clean the cars before the shoot anyway. I'll send you a pm immediately.

I would happily have lent mine (standard apart from Eventuri) but regrettably wrong end of the country. They couldn't have picked a less accessible location tucked away in the bottom corner of England!

Thanks all for your interest, sadly there just wasn't enough time in the end. It looks like it will be a 2 car shoot out with a mention for the Z4M in dispatches. :(

I really hope it's not a major mag, as that really is poor planning. Far too late.

It was a big one, but in their defence it sounded like they were very organised, they just got let down by an owner yesterday. With so few M Coupes around it was always going to be tough to find a replacement at such short notice.
