New Zed…..finally

Post by Andrew312 » Thu Sep 23, 2021 5:42 pm

Hello I have finally gone and done it, after being carless since beginning of lockdown I have bought a zed.
I only looked for 10 months and am so happy with my new toy.
Have been looking on here for months and just wanted to introduce ourselves.
Great tips and advice before making the decision to buy, thanks to all.

It’s only a 23i, after looking at different models, engines, colours I saw this and that was it.
Loving it so far.

It is not 'only' a 23i. It is a 2.5 litre straight 6 cylinder BMW Z4 of the finest vintage.
There is no such thing as 'only' on a forum dedicated to Z4s. It's a Z4, so you're one of them (not 'us' as I'm a bit..err..special)! :thumbsup:
