I met up with Attilio yesterday and gave the little Z a long overdue SPANKING in the Wicklow mountains!

Buzzing after a fantastic day, 6 hours of talking cars, looking at cars, driving cars... What more could one ask for?!

It was such a pleasure to meet a true car nut and be able to indulge in all things cars!

I'll shut up and make with the photos now :p

It was great to drive each other’s cars too, the Z4M is a monster, most noticeable difference was the shorter gears and torque everywhere! While he was impressed with the sound of my car with one of the sound generator foams removed.

Definitely looking forward to many more of those spins and the North Wales run 😎

Yes, it was a great day out: our cars, a fellow car nut and super nice person, great roads and nearly no traffic! The Z4s had a lot of “play time” :wink:

While Peter is still buzzing after a drive in the M, I’m still shaking :cry: He has a brick in place of his right foot :lol:

Thanks gents, there really is nothing like a Z on an open mountain road :)

Front end with no plate looks so good, but it’s only until I receive my vinyl plate (hopefully tomorrow) really crossing my fingers and hoping it looks ok!

Attilio, so sorry if I scared you man 😛 looking forward to the next time :driving:
