Interesting move - Metal Lickers orange E89 looks great so you've made a lovely choice.
Good luck with the sale of your 3.0si (though you won't need it ) - a great example

Great choice and demonstrating perfect taste.
Might be a slightly biased opinion, but you will enjoy it.

Thanks Paul. Would have loved a 35i or 35is in the same colour but budget wouldn't stretch that far plus this one has a dual function as Julie's daily driver plus my weekend play thing so it's a good compromise in terms of performance, running costs etc.paulgs1000 wrote:Interesting move - Metal Lickers orange E89 looks great so you've made a lovely choice.

I am currently looking at an X4 30dmsport and PORSCHE Macan s as a joint car with the wife,lol. (We have always had SEPERATE cars,so this will be interesting ).
The z4 will be staying though,and the 125coupe will be sold,so all good.
Good luck selling the z,tho as mentioned,u won't need it,that car is a cracker

Spent today bringing the new Zed's paintwork up to spec. Was surprised how rough it felt so after a full body clay, a coat each of Autoglym, Poorboys black hole glaze and Angel Wax it's come up a treat. Took the opportunity to snap alongside my E85.Lites wrote:Looks lovely! Any more pics?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the move - there will be a few 3.0si owners interested in your experiences I'm sure. . .GJC72 wrote:Thanks Paul.

Agree with the comments above, seats look epic! In the sun I imagine that paintwork looks even better!
