Hi all

I'm new to the forum but had my Z4 for over 6 years. Currently based in Stafford. Would be great to meet some local(ish) owners and maybe come to some meet-ups or events. Here's a few photos of my zed.

Cheers!

Mike

Hi and welcome from a fellow Coupe owner - but I'm nowhere near you!

But your car looks very smart, and power-fold mirrors seem to be a pretty rare option. :thumbsup:

Just a thought, but have you seen this? viewtopic.php?f=14&t=115101

Thanks, guys!

@mr wilks - I'm always behind on things I want to get done, but 6 years to register for a forum is pretty ridiculous, even for me!

@road warrior - yup, Burton On Trent isn't too far at all.

@Mr Tidy - cheers! I have registered an interest in that meet up. I was watching the post for a bit before joining the forum.

stewey999, Not signed up for Z fest unfortunately. Looks like it will be a great event, though!

weeman88, Thanks! Just checked yours out - very nice, too. Yes, Hixon is very close.

Maybe if the Hetty's meet is tricky to agree a date for we could look for a location around Abbotts Bromley or Uttoxeter way as well since, from what I've seen, that looks like it could be convenient for a few folks?

Welcome! Nice looking Z4C

I’m originally from Tamworth and went to Staffordshire uni - spent time at both Stafford and Stoke. Nowhere near there now though as I relocated to Bangkok years ago

Thanks! I can't help but feel there might be an interesting story you totally glossed over :wink: and I'm also wondering - do you have a zed in Thailand?

I didn’t want to invade your thread, but since you asked, yeah - I’m in Thailand

Actually, I’m on the outskirts of Bangkok, officially in Nakhon Pathom and here’s my E85
