Beige, wood and automatic - is this feature aimed at pensioners? :P

I mean that's hardly what a sports car audience will be looking for - but then again doesn't the car belong to a pensioner? :) :thumbsup:
Your older than me you tart :poke:
They said they wanted a real sports car and not the Capri version :rofl:

Surely forum members have been following the classic news where the Z4 is being tipped as the next classic ahead of the Audi TT and Prorsche Boxster. This is primarily based on looks as early TTs looked too rounded wheres the Boxster looks the wrong way round.

If I told my mates my Z4 is becoming a classic, they would most likely laugh at me :lol:

The Z4M will be a classic. The normal Z4 won't be on that pedestal.

Don't get me wrong, they're great cars and the fact i've had mine 6 years (my previous longest car ownership was 18 months) shows how great they are, to me anyway.

But I just don't think they have or are entitled to classic status anytime soon.

It doesn't need it, it's already got an oak paneled drawing room in the basement - along with the wine cellar, the picnic marquee and the staff accommodation...
