Hi,

After a bit of a spontaneous moment today I ended up doing a deal on a manual 2006 Z4 3.0si roadster, so far I’m pretty chuffed with it (a side from nerves that come with buying 2nd hand cars waiting if any issues show) did a 70mile trip home and was very impressed.

Anyway thought I’d say hi and I will probably be along with shortly tapping into the wealth of info that appears to be on here.

Appearances can be deceptive! :lol:

Welcome and as said the natives like pictures (apparently they keep forgetting what a Z4 looks like)! :poke: :D
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Let me know when you’re up there and we can meet up.
Looking forward to a pic or two. Wondering if it’s one I know? Is the roof motor in the boot as I’ve done quite a few local ones?
