i have just registered having bought a Z4 30i auto M Sport in white. It's a 2011 model with 14000 miles. I had to have a "six" and 35s are not that common. It's in quite good order and marks my return to BMWs having had a 2002 ZM coupe from 2002-05 (in Phoenix Yellow). Nice car but I just had to have another NSX so it went. Still have the NSX. The Zed is for summer loafing only (including abroad) and now that I'm an old fart I found I don't need to have a "sports car" as such. But big road roller wheels are definitely the ones to have though! So, the Zed does it for me over the Boxster etc etc even though the press says the Zed is pants etc....I live in West Glos so I will either use BMW Cotswold or Forza. Not sure yet. I still worry about having no dipstick....

Welcome to the forum OP. :thumbsup:

Z3M Coupe then NSX you say - it sounds like you have form for great car ownership!

I used to worry about the missing dip-stick, but now I always check it every journey using the button - just to be sure the sensor is working. :roll:

Did anyone mention photos yet? :lol:

Okay but how do you load photos? In terms of cars I have had 3 NSX. The ZM was between numbers 2 and 3. I also have a LCC Rocket. Oh and a Talbot Samba Cabriolet. Of these the NSX is the most common! 350 NSX in UK; 17 Rockets (of 48 built; rest in Japan pretty much), and 16 Sambas (most of which are fit only for the scrapper sadly). Unless of course you are of the opinion that all Sambas are fit only for the scrapper! Anyway, please let me how to do the photos! Bernev

Ok loading pics just worked it out myself the other week
After you haveput your text in the box gondown to the bottom click on attachment then you can choose documents and it bring up your photos on your laptop or tablet click on the on you want push done it will only load one at atime
I found that out so you have to go into your pics every time and then push submit and it should work ok
If thats wrong im sure someone will say

and the Rocket..... well you did ask (two years ago)! I still ike the zed best for overall driving in today's conditions. The NSX is too valuable really; the Rocket has a nightmare clutch; and the Samba has no power anything...
