New Z4MR owner, Plymouth Devon

Post by luckyfinners » Tue May 30, 2023 10:46 pm

Hello all,

I've been browsing the forum in the few days since buying my 2006 Z4MR. I believe the car and previous owner is known to the forum.

Anyone else from the Plymouth area?

Hi and welcome to the forum, I’m in the Newton Abbot area so only a little up the road from you and there are quite a few others that appear on here from time to time. Don’t forget some photos please. :thumbsup:

Pictures incoming at the weekend - it's needs a clean, which is a bit difficult here with a hose pipe ban!

Do you guys have any recommendations for decent specialists that you use for working on your cars?

Paddock Motors Sidmouth Rd, Near, Exeter EX5 2JJ is the only one I know, I booked in last year for an alignment, drove up from Newton Abbot and they didn't have a record of it being booked. So don't know what they are like but quite a few zeds in the car park. The other one is in Paignton, German Autos but again only been once, seemed okay but has a very small car park so put me of a little. :thumbsup:
