Hi Everyone

Just joined after buying my first two seater, a lovely 2007 2.0 Sport in silver. Seems to have been well looked after and had loads of history. Got her last week but have been busy getting my first two updates out the way, namely replacing the stereo and retrofitting cruise control. Thanks for all the great advice scattered around the forum, it definitely made it much easier. Hopefully will be changing from run flats at some time in the future and maybe change my grills for the all black ones so already have the bug :rofl:

    Hello?
    Another foreigner? What is the place coming to?

    But seriously, welcome aboard. The car looks great and my 'manager' hails from Kilmarnock so anti-Scots jokes are a double-edged sword down here :D

    And looking at your third pic, well done for trying to improve the neighbourhood's car choices. :rofl:

    Always happy to help if I can.

    If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:

    Hello and nice looking E85, very shiny wheels :thumbsup:
    There are lots of us older people on here so on behalf of all of us I've got to ask "what's the thing above the radio that says smartphone holder for?" Is it some kind of new-fangled air freshener? :D
    All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

    Hello and welcome. Quite a few of us North of the border here :thumbsup:

    That’s a nice looking car you have and in the best colour 8)

    How do you get on with that stereo? When I got mine that same head unit came with it but I’ve got the original too and prefer the OEM look.

    Was going to try and fit a full android touchscreen device and then saw this. Less than £150 including the adaptor kit and DAB aerial and it comes with an in-built phone holder, what’s not to like :rofl:

    It’s only been in less than a week. Is a bit of a tight fit to get in but really like it so far. Excellent DAB reception, can use my Apple Music and allows Bluetooth and Sat Nav. Have read a bit about problems with the Pioneer app but so far so good :D
