Hello thought I'd introduce myself. Recently fell back in love with my 3litre e85 Z4 which I bought back in December 2012 with snow on the ground for £5750. I bought it blind whilst at work when I lived in London from a guy in Clacton On Sea who took it to my Dad who lives in Clacton to check it over and do a deal on my behalf.

Fastforward.... Ive moved 4 times car has been in storage ever since I got into the VW camper Scene two years ago after getting a T4, with street parking on a tree lined street I found a garage for the Z4 but didn't really use it as I bought a diesel Beetle as a run about. I moved last year to a house with a big driveway so I took the car out of storage taxed and MOT'd last Autumn. I've done about 800 miles in it since then and Was going to sell but kinda fell back in love being so its not worth much and doesn't owe me anything.

Spent last weekend detailing which included headlight restoration, full machine paint correction and detailing. I'm booked into this years Zfest so come say hello.

The spec of my car is as follows all original except for the drilled and grooved discs, rear spacers, SPAX coilovers and stainless steel Catback fitted in July 2015.
Red Leather
Top HiFi (carver subs) with Aux in retro fitted by me back in 2013
Heated Seats
Zenons
All important cup holders which are now useless due to it being slammed!
CD Changer
Wind deflector

Roof motor replaced in July 2014 by my expert Z4 Guru 'The Gruebertron'

Im looking to have the wheels refurbished before the show hopefully.

Thank you, I dont have a before picture but I have loads from the last 8 years somewhere. I'm going to stick with the turbines and next day off going to delete the Clutch delay valve
