I was very impressed with the M-Sport and that Estoril Blue looks really nice.

I was even more impressed that the x-drive version is now available too. They had a black M-Sport 320 x-drive in as well.

This was the first BMW Car Club Event that I have attended and it was good to see two other Z4 M's already in the car park when I arrived.

Good to meet the owners, Darren and Guv.

I really liked the Estoril Blue F30 M-Sport, not keen on the colour in pictures but looked great in the flesh.

Welcome andbikes, nice to meet you yesterday. You've got a lovely Z4MR in a great colour combination. :thumbsup:

We have quite a few meets and events on the Forum, particularly the National Meet held over two days in the Lakes each summer. We're a friendly bunch. Would be good to see you at one in the future :driving:

I'm looking forward to attending some of the events and meeting more of the forum members.

All three Z4M's looked good on Sunday, shame that Darren parked his the wrong way round for the photoshoot :D
