After 4 years of happy Z4 ownership I've decided it's time for a change and today I signed all the paper work on this bad boy.

With £21k of extras from new, it's extremely well optioned including Bose upgrade, sports chrono package, sports exhaust, GTS lights etc. 18 months old And 12k on the clock.

Pickup next week. Cannot wait!!

I very nearly said that, but didn't want to cause any offence!

But parked at race circuits, etc. it was easy to find my old Imola Red 3 Series - it's a bit of a challenge with my current one in Sparkling Graphite. :lol:

I must be a poseur too, I love that, it’d be my choice of colour or lime green. It looks fantastic, enjoy :thumbsup:
