Hello everybody :) Bought a Z4 3.0 Roadster

[Adam D]

Hello all, I am very pleased to have aquired a superb 2003 3.0 Z4 about 2 weeks ago

I was told this was a good forum to join from some of the guys over at pistonheads and some of the information i've read so far has been very helpful

Its a silver 2003 MY 3.0i with 30k miles on the clock and some nice options being a ex BMW demonstrator:

18" composite wheels
Carver audio system with 6cd changer
Prof Sat Nav
Electric heated memory seats
Xenons
Parking sensors

Here are some pictures I saved when I bought it, I've not had much opportunity to take some good pictures myself - too busy enjoying it on the country roads with the roof down

Is anyone else on here from Essex in the UK? I've had a few fellow Z4 drivers flashing and waving at me over the weekend - none of whom I know

I've only had one annoyance so far, sometimes the roof seems to not wish to open and only moves back a few inches and seems to struggle. Closing it and opening it again seems to fix it, can anyone advise me if I should be lubricating the mechanism incase its a bit stiff? Hope its not an expensive dealer fix required, it doesnt always do it! The clip it hooks into when the roof is down is also a bit hit and miss and could do with adjusting, sometimes it clicks down, others it fails to

That's no defence where some of these guys are concerned!

Nice to meet you WLH and Ignitor

Just spent an hour giving it a quick wash and a going over with some meguires quick detailling spray - shiney I need to do some more work on the wheels to lift some of the black corrosion off where the two halves of the split rim join - wheel cleaner and a toothbrush seems to be working so far but its going to take a few goes to get it all off.

Do you know if there are any UK meets or club events?
