Nice one Andy! I collected mine last July, I couldn't wait until the end of August for the new plate.

I got mine from Sytner Nottingham, they sent me a similar video when it was ready.

Winter driving was part of the logic of getting a March car. Nov to Feb I use the Z4 much less so elected to sell the previous 35i in November and wait until the thick of the winter had passed. This also worked out very well financially.

This car was not anticipated to reach the dealer for another couple of weeks yet, so what I thought was going to be 2 weeks to wait has turned into 5. But on the bright side it's almost February and that will fly by.

That is a lovely looking car, I really like the contrasting roof.

Don't forget to tell them NOT to stick a sticker in the rear window!!

Thankyou, glad people seem to like it. The decision to go with the black roof took a few days and I'm sure gave me a few more grey hairs. That video is still the closest I've actually come to seeing a VO with contrasting roof in real life.

Not the end of the world on the sticker, but a good point. :thumbsup: They are a pain to get out and clean the mark that's left.

Your car looks terrific.

I love the contrast roof effect as well, quite popular on new cars now.

White spirit usually helps removing sticker glue.

Video is great, the Sales guys sell cars, not star in films :wink: I've watched it about 5 times a day since it was posted, keeps me sane.

Indeed the time will fly. Need to pay for it tomorrow, it's being detailed on Saturday, busy week in between.

Also right on those dirty roads. :cry:
