New owner, new member.
Evening all, just a few lines to introduce myself and say hello.
By way of a background I was originally introduced to BMW when I bought a new 330c clubsport in 2006. Boy I loved that car until 2012 when I started to fancy a change and plunged a mass of green into a new Audi S4 with every possible extra. I was content enough, but always felt something was missing. Don't get be wrong it was a great car and did everything you could possibly want it to, in fact it did everything too well, and thats were the missing piece was. There was no edge and no fun and therefore not the emotional connection that I had experienced with the BMW.
So exactly one year to the day, I cut my losses and sold the Audi back to them, the financial loss stung... A lot, and I begun searching for something that I could drive rather than the car and electronics driving me.
Today I became the very happy owner of a 56 plate Z4MC the 120 mile drive home was the most fun I have had behind the wheel for a long time. Roll on tomorrow

Re: New owner, new member.
Oh yes, it's an 'M', none of the fake badges for me.
Not that I'm aware of, I got it from a dealer but it might have been previously.
I've spent the day tidying the callipers and heat shields, what the hell is all that flaky paint about, and on a BM as well.
