Wifes car but I get to clean it and drive it at the weekends

Look at how many people actually say that was them not many. I can't be arsed posting up most of the E85's, E86's and E89's I see because they probably won't be on here and the Lady driving etc ones even more so! I can count on the one hand how many E89 drivers in the UK are posting and visiting the site on a regular basis.

The guys I know who are on here that I've seen I will acknowledge but most people driving a Z4 are not enthusiasts and probably don't even know this site exsists.

Take exception to this! Although must admit not an an "enthusiast" but love my zed.

Anyway a white 12 plate on overtook me on The Avenue, Southampton heading out towards the M3/M27 this evening around 5.30-6pm. Have seen loads in the last few months we've had one but rarely post here or wave/get waved at

And why do you take exception to this? Clearly you know this site exsists. You do know that there are thousands of Z4's on the road and that applies to E89's however there is only a small fraction of the amount of people on this site and not all of them are from the UK. The likelihood is that unless you know that other car is a forum member your probably more likely to come across a car where the other driver is not. You've even said you rarely get a post of wave which shows they are more than likely not members.

Most people that use forums for information about there car are more enthusiast types. Yes there is the one post type of folk just looking for information but the majority of people on this site are enthusiasts

Like I also said I can count on the 1 hand how MANY FEMALE E89 owners post on here and you are one of them. Both SARS and Carol were E89 oweners but are not anymore. Most posts are from males......even if it's their wives car

It was said tongue in cheek but that doesn't come over on screen! should have only quoted the "lady driver" bit!!

I keep spotting my old E89, DY12 NJZ tootling along A449 Wolverhampton Road in Stafford, lady driver. Anyone off here?

Her hubby will probably confirm if they are shortly

CaliforniaGirl, ah I see. Maybe using this wee fella might help in future. It's always difficult to judge tone when your just reading stuff. Glad you were not really offended.

Ive never understood having the roof on when hot and dry.
A fella along the road from us wouldn't put the roof down nor drive home without it if neighbours were watching incase he looked like he was showing off!

To be fair, the sun might be out but there is quite a breeze but not enough to stop the roof being down. Yesterday, yes as it was gusts of 50mph plus during the day

People who think they are being watched or talked about clearly have nothing better to do.

On the flip side I've also got a neighbour who has a complete narcissus complex !
Drives his wife's mx3 no roof, loud music and wears a Stars and Stripes bandana .
He tells me I've bought the wrong car .
