Welcome :thumbsup:

Which part of north somerset?

There's a nice red Z4MR in the classifieds currently down in Plymouth which has just seen a price drop, if you don't mind a relatively higher mileage.

Thanks for the replys.

I'm based in occasionally sunny weston.

I've seen the advert for the red one,but comparing that to tangotops car I viewed it seems expensive with the miles.

I'm not in a rush and prices seem to be softening at the moment.

Fellow Weston-super-Vegas resident :thumbsup: I have an E89, however whenever I see a Zed regardless of the model it gets a flash. After all, I can't seem to find the indicators, at least the high beam works :rofl:

I haven't seen a e89 around weston,only a couple of e85's.I shall have to keep my eyes peeled.

The imola red z4m roadster that was for sale on the forum is now tucked away in my garage. I've had a couple of small dents removed today,so now i just need to get the paint corrected and she's good to go.

When it's all done I'll get some pictures up.

When I viewed the car the paintwork didn't look amazing.But seeing how good it was mechanically,I thought it was worth buying.
When I got the car home and parked it in my garage under led lights,it looked horrendous.
So after getting the couple of small dents removed,it went and had a full paint correction.
It looks great now and I'll be happy to take it out.
I've just got to.find some tri colour stickers for m badges and that will do for now.
