Had it MOT'd this morning and have a new ticket with no advisories.

I can at least say I have owned a V8 now :D
I bet you have difficulty persuading it to go past a petrol station. :!:
I’ll let you know, but anything above 20 is going to be unlikely I think.

Only a weekend car though, Z4 is sorn over winter so won’t be doing too many miles.

But absolutely worth it for the pleasure of driving such a car and the sound of that engine. :thumbsup:

I know the feeling, really miss my old 4.2 XJ, it was really good on fuel as it was all aluminium. It was up for sale on EBAY recently still flying through its MOT's

Went for a quick run in the Jaaaaaaaag this afternoon with the family. 21mpg so better than I thought. If the planets align it could be my daily for a while.

It did. We have twins and as folk on here will know Sophie loves coming out with me in the Z4. I put my foot down coming out of a 30 to national limit, not all the way but the car is rapid. Anyway my wife and other daughter s**t themselves and Sophie just burst out laughing :D
