Hello everyone

I've recently bought a Z4 Roadster (really wanted a coupe but couldn't afford it) so thought I would join your forum

The car is a 3.0 in lovely shape, needs some cosmetic work (usual scatches) and a couple of issues, mainly that the roof can take a couple of tries to get going.

I have carly from a previous car so have started to code some areas.

Id like to get it looked at properly by a mechanic but funds are limited so might do it myself, looking forward to learning lots and getting to know the car better

Welcome to the forum OP. :thumbsup:

It sounds like your roof motor might need some attention - BMW put them in a daft place and they get wet! Depending on where you are there are a few forum members who can revive them, and more importantly relocate them into the boot to prevent future problems - it's much cheaper than a new roof motor from BMW!

Anyway we do like to see photos on here, so get some added! :)

Hi and welcome. 3.0 roadster gets my vote every time well done :thumbsup: get the top down (and if you've got heated seats its an all year drop top) and you might well wonder why you wanted a coupe - well apart form the roof line.

Enjoy your Zed

PS got any photos?
