Not so new newbie
Hello all.
Long time lurker, I've decided to come out of the shadows and buy a Z. I pick it up Saturday, the next day will be the longest of my life! Not new to Z4s as I've had about 6 in the family, my brother used to use this forum a lot (anyone remember playalistic and his questionable sense of direction?!) and i've tagged along to a few meets in the past.
Anyway here is a pic of what I'm getting. A 2007 2l. Maybe not much compared to some on here, but I'm more than happy with it. The list of mods is already growing. Starting with a stubby!

Ah Playalistic with his infamous sense of direction
I presume his Noble is long gone by now.
Anyway welcome and enjoy the new car ?Nick. Rare wheels you have on there by the way.

Picked it up a day early. Just home from a nice long blast round some twisty roads.
This smile is going to be a permanent feature on my face.
