That road looks great - I suspect you don't see too many Z4s on your travels! :)

I really like your interior - it's a good contrast with Monaco Blue paint IMO.

I'm not a fan of black everywhere (but with a Sport you can't avoid it on the roof-lining) so Pearl Grey leather was one of the big attractions of my current E86.

Keep enjoying those roads. :driving:

Thanks Tidy,...initially, I was after a black or dark grey one with black or grey interior but this one attracted me despite not really being that keen on light coloured leather....something about the yellowness of the Champagne leather and the subtle blue of the Monaco grew on me so took the plunge at top-whack German dealer money!

Yours sound a very nice combination too and a great spec.

There are many more Roadsters here than Coupes of course but never see either especially in my far flung neck of the woods! Due to my search for a good example in Greece I now have a friend in Athens with a lovely black E86 coupe whom I hope to meet up with during the summer....he had it up for sale but had the jitters about parting with it (which is not uncommon I guess)...he might get the jitters again if I show him the Langada Pass in the pictures!! Falling rocks are a risk but tend to happen during bad weather...

We often get Classic Car and Motorcycle Rallies passing our way here in Greece. One happened the other day here and actually passed through our village!

The following is nice to read and one section is the road I posted about last week. Scroll right through as nice photos! Only BMW was a 2000ti which alas retired..... :(
