And then you have to try and store your punctured wheel in the limited space.

I've got a 17" spacesaver from an E46 with jack and wheel-brace for when I do ditch the runflats, but you still need to have somewhere to put the full-size wheel you take off! :(

Well, I've brought her home. Drove beautifully.

Did a few miles getting her home on the motorway. Noticed a bit of tramming I well used roads. It this inherent to the Z4 or down to the tyres?

Also sounded a bit diffy. Again, this just my keen mechanical ear or inherent to the Z4?
