One month!

Post by Goofle » Sat Jul 11, 2015 9:59 pm

So I've had my Z4 for a month (and a day!) now. I got it with 12k on the clock, I've added another two. About half of these were achieved on a few days in Northern France and Belgium, the rest on the A roads of Cumbria.
I must say I'm enjoying every mile - I just wish I'd got it earlier!
I'm off to see the club racing at Croft tomorrow, any excuse for a trip across the Pennines!
Unfortunately I'm still unable to post pictures....

So you're a month late in reporting to the Forum and you have spent none of that time researching how to post pics. Not the greatest of starts! :poke:

See here for how to post pics:

viewtopic.php?f=11&t=30

As you have a busy day tomorow I will give you until 21:00 to post pics. Regulear readers of my rantings will confirm that this is probably the most generous amount of time ever granted, so please don't abuse this generosity.

Enjoy Croft, but don't talk to any strangers on the way home!

Oh, and welcome by the way. Enjoy :driving:

Oh dear....

Incidentally, I'm curious what you mean when you say I'm a month late in reporting!

Hi,
I'm in Barrow-in -Furness at present. I enjoyed my trip over Kendal, Brough and to Scotch Corner. It's a shame my face caught the sun at Croft, it's currently uncomfortably rather warm. Didn't stop me having the hat down for most of the journey though...
I've not been too fussed over posting pictures as it's totally standard - grey, red leather, 18'' wheels. The only slightly distinguishing things about the car are it's no badges (other than the BMW propellor) and its West Country (Exeter) registration, both of which I like.
Oh, and it's often seen around railway locations!

Grey is a great colour for the E89 especially with red leather .

If there's one I can get to I may toddle along. I'll be relocating to Argyll and Bute in the near future, so I'll keep an eye out there!

Hi Goofle, interesting alias. :thumbsup: welcome to the forum. :driving: is more fun than taking pictures. :thumbsup:

A few would be nice though, :)

If I could post I would, but it seems a monster faff to use photo bucket or the like, and my car is totally standard. Yes, I've pictures of it here there and everywhere but the actual car is exactly as you'd picture.
As you guess, I'd rather be driving, riding my bikes or spotting trains than faffing on the interweb!
I've looked on 'How Many Left' on the www, there's over 2200 Spec'd like mine on the road. It's hardly exclusive! I've got bikes that have less than 50 of them taxed and on the road!
