How much can you get in that car?

Post by MikeS » Tue Oct 13, 2009 12:03 pm

There has been much discussion about how much space there is in the new Z4 so i though I would send some pictures and info. Firstly, you can get a full set of golf clubs and bag in the car with the roof down with no problem as long as you have the 'ski' bag extra. In addition you can also put another full set of clubs and bag cross ways in the boot as long as the roof is up.

I recently went to Cornwall for 11 days and managed to get all that my wife and I needed for the holiday including 2 sets of golf clubs and a lot of wine! See the phots for details.

Good stuff :thumbsup:

I've managed fit my bicycle in the back of my Zed - a proper mountain bike with 24 Shimano gear. Mind you it was a tight fit....

Like the wheels. Given the choice I would have had those on mine, but the cost was too high! The Z4 does look very "posh" in that pic! :thumbsup:

Yes, I do like the wheels... :thumbsup:
Looks like if you pack for the space there is plenty of room... :)

Thanks for the comments. The colour choice took a long time but I finally decided on the space grey as it reminded me of of the old Aston Martins and I thought it would look smart. The wheels took a lot of persuading as it was a dealer (not the one I was buying the car from) that recommended them, however I am very pleased by the results. The book/folder mention by one post (its on the top of the pile in the open boot) is actually a game called Senior Moments - hilarious over a bottle of wine or 3.

I will post a few more phots when i take some during the next sunny moment.

No, not with all that stuff could you, the roof needs the sides to be clear. Lovely colour :)

... and the roof tray needs to be moved down into place. Terrific photos and a good example of using the space efficiently! :)
