Welcome from the other side of the pond.

The car(s) look great, and I'm envious of your (US only) cup holder :thumbsup:

Welcome also.

We tried both old and new Boxters, lovely car, but with the top down, there is a really unpleasant draft on the back of the neck, presumably as a result of no small quarterlghts behind the main windows. The Z4 has no such draft.

Welcome to the forum - I love Valencia Orange. :thumbsup:

Your Mini looks like loads of fun as well! I believe the engines were a joint venture between BMW and Peugeot, so some BMW input in them.
Coupes because stunning!

Known as the “prince” engine i believe? Our clubman had twin vanos so the bmw input is clear :thumbsup:
