1st Day Out

Post by IRD » Sat Feb 27, 2021 9:01 pm

After a long Winter that seemed to go on forever took the cover off and used the Z to do some legitimate errands. Top down of course! All in all covered about 25 miles. Not far but really enjoyed the drive. I never tire of getting behind the wheel and hearing that exhaust note. Being out with the top down really lifts the spirits. :D

Love the colour. Claret perhaps/ If so I had a 28i in the same and it always looked great when polished. Would happily swap for a 2016 35is model

It's good to hear that you were able to put some miles on your Z4 Ian. :thumbsup:

Having a Tesco superstore a mile from home I keep finding myself going to Morrisons or Asda just so I can have a decent drive!

Judging by the number of cars on the road today a lot of people had legitimate errands to do.

Just renewed my BMW warranty today Iain and had to provide the mileage. Checked from last year I have done 400 miles. Crazy! :roll:

400 miles! :o

Maybe it's that new (to me) car thing but since December 2019 I have managed just over 2,200 because I made a point of using it outside of lockdown and for essential travel during lockdown.

I hope you can find some more essential trips this year. :thumbsup:

+2 on that one :thumbsup:
It's such a shame you snapped your aerial off, though. I bet you're gutted. :o
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.
