At Last....Bought a 3.0 SE today

Post by Matt64 » Sat Oct 22, 2016 7:28 pm

Huge cheesey grins all round. After months of searching for an affordable & straight 3.0 Z4 . Finally put down some money on a very tidy 04 reg Merlot with freshly shod & refurbed split rims, black leather electric seats. Quite high miles but wearing them very well. 2 owners The last being a mechanic & a huge wad of history.
I dont think i can wait til next saturday to pick it up!!! :evil:

Hi Matt, welcome! These are generally solid and reliable cars so high mileage should not be a concern.
Looking forward to pics once you get it.

Thanks for the warm welcome all.
I really can't wait. I've had various roadsters for over 10 years & have been without for about 5 months now, this be my 1st BMW though. I love the merlot colour now I have seen it in the flesh. The 3.0 is definitely THE right engine, I tried a few 2.5s but they didn't do it for me.
