New Z4 owner from NL

Post by mpc007 » Mon May 24, 2021 2:26 pm

Hi guys,

Via this intro post in the newbie section I'd like to say I'm very glad to be here, already found a ton of useful info over the course of the past weeks while I was still on the hunt for my current car. Coming from an E46 Coupe, MX-5 ND, and some smaller Peugeots I absolutely admire the design of the Z4 and I'm hoping to have some fun with these cars (I like all generations) until I'm ready for something new. A bit of personal info; I'm now 28 years old and based in the Netherlands.

Car is a 2004 Z4 E85 3.0i with SMG box and imo beautiful colour combination of Toledo blue exterior and beige sports interior. Car is in original state apart from the fact that the previous owner already fitted an Eisenmann exhaust which is a nice plus, had it on my E46 and it was great.

Thanks! Yes, when checking the car out I was very surprised it even had the extended leather package. Some bits and pieces in the interior can use some attention (shift knob, door handles, etc) but already found out with a rarer spec like this some items are not newly made anymore :lol:

Hello and welcome

Lovely looking car .. Toledo blue/beige is a fabulous combination. Toledo is a really lovely colour, quite rare I’d imagine. I had a work E39 BMW 530d in the same combo back in 2002

Enjoy the car/forum
