New '04 Black Z4 30i Owner

Post by Asa90 » Wed Apr 20, 2022 11:19 am

Hi All! :thumbsup:

I've just picked up an '04 Black Z4 30i with 90k miles. Based in North Herts.

Over the years I've owned a few 3 series', a 1 series, a couple X3's and a mini cooper :lol: Last year I sold my beloved E46 M3 Manual Coupe :x The F25 X3 3.0d remains the family wagon.

Me and Mrs have a baby on the way, so I've agreed to be sensible and sold the Yamaha MT10, so the zed seems like a great way to get wind in my hair and hit a few track days without risking death :lol:

I picked up an old set of MV2 18's over the weekend, so first task will be fitting them and a new set of rubber, before overhauling the brakes and tidying up some cosmetic bits.

Look forward to getting involved on the forum! Pics below...

Welcome aboard. Nice looking motor you found yourself there.
Remember not to lean quite so far over in the bends now you're on four wheels. :D

Always happy to help if I can.

If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:

Haha! I've heard the Z4 has decent body roll on OEM springs so I might feel at home :D

Hi and welcome to the forum Asa90. Great looking car especially with the new wheels when fitted.
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.
