Nothing wrong with a TT - I looked at a TTRS before I bought the Z4, great cars all round - love the colour it is where I would have gone on a TT
The main thing is that SWMBO is able to drive and enjoy it - nothing else matter right now.
I am sure with your detailing skills it will be looking a $1m before the weekend is over, just the wheels then which is £300 so nothing major

It was a very good price, miles below the budget we had set ourselves, very happy with itOle gits rule wrote: ↑Wed May 05, 2021 6:31 pm Nothing wrong with a TT - I looked at a TTRS before I bought the Z4, great cars all round - love the colour it is where I would have gone on a TT

It looks good mate - my mate has a standard 2.0 SLine with the digital dash which was very nice.
I an sure you will have some fun with it - what have the girls said?

I used to have a mk2 3.2 v6 TT, not as pretty as the Z4 and the engine noise isn't comparable, but those TTS and TTRS models have much more usable performance than the RWD Z4 - especially in the rainy UK. Excellent interiors too, I'm sure you won't regret it

Said to my OH, who is a hairdresser, what do you think of that, she said it’s not chunky enough so you’re safe, you don’t need your hairdryer and tongs as it’s obviously not just a hairdressers car
This is of course the same person who won’t drive the Zed as she says it frightens her and she prefers getting driven around
Mrs is taking it out tomorrow to take her mum for lunch I think, she’d never have done that in any of the Zed’s as she struggled with the low driving position and long bonnet.
She seems excited about taking it out, not scared, so that’s brilliant

Glad she is happy to drive it - makes the switch worth while, mine won't drive the Zed either but then again I don't mind as I love driving it

Very nice, looks darker than sprint blue. May be the shade though.True-Blue wrote: ↑Wed May 05, 2021 12:42 pm Moving to the Dark Side... after 6 Z4’s
Picking up a Sprint Blue TTS Quattro roadster later today. 2 owners from new... I have my hair dryer & tongs ready
We were looking for 4 seaters, but neither of us could get excited about any of them and didn’t want to risk an old M3.
Partner happy driving a TT as shorter bonnet than a Z4 and driving position is a little more upright also.
It’s mechanically great, but needs a little TLC with roof cleaning, body work etc.

Surely that is why you need to keep a Z4 (for yourself)!
And get a TT for the Mrs!
Coupes because stunning!

Interesting, car was advertised as sprint blue... but you might be right, wondering if it’s Scuba Blue... I’ll double check the paint code in the morningDPG wrote: ↑Wed May 05, 2021 9:55 pmVery nice, looks darker than sprint blue.

EDIT - actually, car was simply advertised as blue... I’ve just presumed Sprint Blue, it is a gorgeous colour

I’ve really enjoyed my TTS. Great daily driver, interior is lovely and it’s certainly quicker than my Z4M was.
Owned it for nearly 3 years now so time for a change.

Interesting.... no colour code on the sticker in the boot... so it’s not Sprint Blue and is an ‘individual order’ apparently?
It’s a lovely colour, whatever colour it is
