Hi all, new member here from Kent. I took the plunge on a Z4 a few months ago and this seems like the best place to seek advice or just to chat with like minded people about how great these cars are. I chose an E86 so I could comfortably get the golf clubs in and I'm very happy with the choice. Will try and upload some pics

Hi and welcome to the forum OP from a multiple Coupe owner!

Bonus points for photos in your 1st post too. :thumbsup:

No reason not to enjoy the drive to the golf course so a BMW seems a better idea than an Audi to me!

Welcome to the mad house. :wink:
To be fair the E85 was designed to carry two sets of bats. This excludes the ///M though.

OP, welcome but you’ve bought the wrong car, should have bought the roadster.

Where about in Kent are you. I’m just over the border in Sussex.

I'm just outside Maidstone, you have to keep a good look out for pot holes around this way. I try and play golf but normally the drive home is the most enjoyable bit

I heard you can get more golf clubs in the e85 with the roof down (just sit them upright on the passenger seat).
:poke:

Just kidding, welcome and enjoy! :driving:
