got all excited thinking I had been spotted - until I read the front number plate statement. Not seen it around - which multi storey was it in?


It was in the multi storey at the side of the river opposite Wagamamas.
Don't know why pic has disappeared.
Ah - keep an eye out if you're ever in the multi storey near the Drill Hall :)

Two spotted today..

M25 near Maple Cross around 08:00 this morning. Sporting a stubby, ///M badge and LEDs (your reversing LED is flashing intermittently). I was parked up in the outside lane, incognito in a Saab.

Interesting, can't see if the white one has a stubby or not and that wee spoiler on the boot lid looks a nice wee touch. It's also debadged apart from the ///M badge which is wrong but at least it's on a M Sport for a change.

And the wheels are interesting. Looks quite good all round. First Alpine white one I've actually liked the look of.

Isn't that a stubby which appears under the little orange dot on the wagons side crash bar?

Don't like the spoiler on the boot Angie ! If it did any good the BMW boys would have fitted one! It probably just a cosmetic frippery :rofl:

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

I was trying to work out if it was a stubby or not. Difficult to see. But I think you're right, Ron.

I wouldn't have the spoiler on my car but I like it. Reminds me of some of the wee boot lip spoilers BMW have done for other cars.......very lacking on anything for the Z4 unfortunately

yep, was a stubby (mentioned it in the original spotted post, in case you didn't spot it, I've emphasised... ;) )

And agreed, the wheels were quite nice, Angie. The LED flickering was quite annoying though, am sure he gets the odd flash or two at night. Especially if, with all the lights on, it looks like a 70's disco...
