Hi all,
still didn't get a Z4, but I'm really close!
I stayed for the last 4 years in Germany where I was driving my lovely Miata nbfl. It was heart breaking to leave her behind, but it wouldn't have made sense to import it.
I arrived in the UK in January and since then I started to think about a new baby. After evaluating the mx5 NCs I started to look seriously into Zeds. After testing the E85 2.2i, 2.5 and 3.0, my heart told me to go with the 3.0. I decided to join now because I am really close to purchasing one, and I would need your advice.
Here is pic of my ex-little one. Hopefully, I'll post soon pic of a nice Z Cheers,
Stefano

You could always put a "Wanted" add on the forum.

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with.

Hi and welcome aboard Stefano.
3.0i makes sense as the running costs will be the same because the 2.2i and 2.5i just use a smaller version of the same engine!
Good luck with your purchase, and don't forget to show us some photos once you've bought yours.

Thank you all!
I fell in love with one. It has many owners and 100 k miles but seems in great conditions! There is only one little concern that I have and I couldn't find the answer anywhere. So I thought of joining to ask here
I'll probably open a new topic soon to ask

Here she is. Today I finally brought her home.
Sorry the pictures are horrible
She has got red leather interior (my fav) a 3.0 engine and 100 000 miles
I can't believe I did it. Can't stop peeping at her from my window
Do you have advises for a waterproof half cover/soft top cover?

Thank you everyone
Plan for the day: check drain holes, quick check of oil and coolant, put fuel and enjoy a ride
@firebobby: I just added to my profile
PS
I would love to meet some other owners in my area

Welcome to the forum! Superficial scuff marks are very common and nothing to worry about unless the roof is seriously rubbing when folding.
