Hello all

I bought a 2003 Z4 30i auto today from Worcester. This is my first experience of a Z4. It was fantastic, you feel the car just really wants to play. I'm hoping this going to be fun. Already have a couple of warning lights, it's to do with the brakes.
The forum gave me a few tips what to look out for, really useful thanks

Hi, welcome to the forum. I got my 03, 3.0se at the start of this year, the big 6 pot makes it a great cruiser / GT car.
I hope you enjoy owning and driving it.
