Hi everyone,

A quick hello from a new UK member :)

I purchased a 2006 3.0 coupe at the weekend and I’m thrilled to bits with it.

Having worked on this era of BMW when I was an apprentice some 14 years ago, I instantly fell in love with the shape of the coupe and now I own one - who would have thought.

I’ve got a pretty good base to start with (Silver Grey, Amarine nappa, and lowered on 19” CSL reps) but some TLC needed for sure!

    Thanks, I’m a huge fan of contrasting interior and this was one of my reasons for buying it :P

    Love the Z4 😍 M2 in a farmyard has a certain irony. Anyway, hopefully you’ll be coming along to Ultimate BMW this Sunday? And don’t forget ZedFest later in the year (search the Forum events)
