Great outcome- especially getting your orginal z back- becoming a bit of a forum theme with people sourcing their original cars back! Good luck with the business and detailing your z!

Hi Paddy .. thanks for the comments

I will let you know how I get on etc .... is a strange day today, a little sad to see the 35is go, but for my situation as of now frees up a lot of cash for a car that we where not using, my original plan was just to keep but just did not pan out that way for various reasons which is a real shame ...

Chin up james, you get your old car back and now you have an exciting business venture to look forward to. Who knows, in 3 years (+/-) you might be able to buy another 35is in cash ! Good luck :)

With respect to the current owner, you may want to blank out the reg plate?

Hi everyone ... just a quick update the owner of the Z4 E85 has just changed their mind .. He has now decided to keep her.
So as a compromise I was thinking of getting another Z4M
and I have just seen one on the M watch section ... would be a good replacement for the 35is

Go for it JB. Is that that the low mileage one owner car?

Shame about the other car but hopefully the dealer will come good and you'll have your business venture to fund.

Hello DPG ... in the end I found it very hard to let go plus the £8k hit in lost deposit over just 7 months etc .. I kept the dealer hanging on as much as I could to make my mind up .. in the end I just sold some company shares that I had and came to the conclusion to keep it for now. Plus been out for a couple of drives in north Essex and really started to enjoy it. So most people on this forum where right just use it more and get to learn the Character of the 35is etc .. so still have it :)
