Another Newbie joining the fold....

Post by Wilko1 » Mon Dec 21, 2020 4:07 pm

Hi All

Just purchased a 2004 E85 Z4 2.5 auto in silver with black leather and a short list of options but good history and very clean and original condition..... a real keeper (i hope) !

Viewed a number before purchasing this one but knew within a few minutes of arriving that it was the one for me, am a 'big' car (& bike) guy and have been buying\running bmw's for over 30 years, having owned a 'lot' in that time. Our current daily drivers are a 4 series coupe and 5 series touring but had a hankering for an inexpensive two seater convertible for all weather fun so it had to be an early z4 ! After a brief roof down test drive in near sub zero temps was completely sold.

Great site, already compiled a list of jobs to tackle once i collect car as well as potential upgrades for the future.

Hopefully will get too collect car before xmas and will post some pics up then.

Looking forward to picking the brains of the many experts on this site as well as hopefully making some good contributions....

Hi and welcome to the forum, the pre-facelift 2.5 is a great bargain. There is indeed a wealth of expertise on here; I doubt you will have a problem with the car which nobody can help with. We look forward to seeing some pictures as soon as you collect.
