z4M required for a photo shoot.

Post by Dave1971 » Wed May 31, 2017 1:23 pm

I've lifted this from the BMW car club GB facebook page. If you look them up you can see the original post just scroll down a little bit.



Hello – Modern Classics needs you (well, a BMW Z4 M Roadster). We're trying to put together a photoshoot for this coming Sunday and Monday in the Snowdonia area, and we're looking for Z4 M as one of the stars of a major feature on convertibles. We'll pay for your expenses and the car will be fully insured, plus you'll get a set of images and a free copy of the magazine. If you're interested please get in touch via [email protected] or call me on 07738527323

I've dropped him a note after a chat on Facebook. It'd be them picking my car up and driving it, rather than me, so if anyone else is closer/free that'd perhaps be better!

I'd got in touch with him too, but am racing at Silverstone this weekend so can't be there in person. He mentioned you'd been in touch JAD, so looks like they are sorted, unless they find someone more local who is happy to be there with their car. :thumbsup:

Modern Classics Magazine, not a bad read, they cover 80s, 90s and 2000s cars. My only complaint is that a lot of the reviews are single page or not very in depth. Available in a lot of the larger WHSmith btw. :)

Hadn't realised they'd only been going just over a year? Either way, interested to meet the editor and have a good old natter. :thumbsup:

Guys I've had to pull out of this one after hitting a pot hole on Wednesday night. Bust tyre, potentially damaged wheel/spring. Gutted.

If you can, please email John-Joe on [email protected]

That isn't my experience of photo shoots, they're not Top Gear you know. :D They are respectful of others property and the owner gets a great set of photos and a magazine to add to their service file. If I were free I would volunteer my car without question (although they ideally want a standard or near standard car).
