Prospective new owner from south Wales

Post by Pete-r » Mon Oct 01, 2018 3:18 pm

Hi I've just joined the forum and I'm looking for a Z4M coupe so looking at this place as good source of info and possibly even to find a car.

Problem is with them so thin in numbers I've yet to try one so is there anyone in South Wales (I'm in Swansea) with a Z4M coupe or cabrio who would be happy for me to have a nose around it and perhaps give me a passenger ride so I know if it's for me?

Thanks.
Pete.

Hi and welcome to the forum Pete. :thumbsup:

IIRC less than 1,000 of each came to the UK, so they aren't easy to find.

But you never know, there may be someone somewhere near you who has one and reads this!

Definitely a good idea to join up and read about them before getting one - I didn't join the forum until I had one. :roll:

Good luck with your search - and don't forget the photos once you have one. :)
