Thanks for all the comets seems the colour has sparked some debate. It was one of the things I loved especially with the interior combination.

I know it's a more sensible choice than an M but I have always really liked the e89 and when I took it for a drive it felt so special sat inside it. The engine and gear change was so smooth. It certainly felt less agile and heavier than my E85 but the overall driving experience was superb. The car has only done 30k and has full service history whoever had it previously has clearly looked after it there was receipts for everything. I will be the 4th owner it's had 2 real owners and was originally registered to a BMW dealer.

The 296 Wheels are my only real concern I told the dealer I want them checking for cracks and it confirming they are ok. I will take it to my local mechanic when I get it to double check. They apear in great condition so I'm hoping everything is fine. After that I will just have to look after them and hope for the best they do look so nice though. They are still on run flats so these will be coming off ASAP.

Really looking forward to picking it up and hoping to get some meets with it. I only made it to one with current Z which is a poor showing !

Very nice. You enjoy :D :driving:

On the colour is the Crimson red non metallic & Melbourne red is metallic. I seen Crimson red one at my dealer & that's why I stayed with the red on my e89.

Car looks great. All you need is to get the alloys painted in matte black, all front silver/chrome matted black and the indicators tinted black then you'll have murder on wheels :D

I hear you. I love my Z4, until I take it into the dealer for any work. It seems like I never get out of there without a four-digit bill. I tell ya, I'm in the wrong business...
