Heads up for 5th gear on quest, new model z4 put through its paces & the e89 given some stick by Vicky Butler Henderson (who comments on what a great chassis it has) :driving:

She walked past me whilst i was refuelling an aircraft, she said hello. They were filming with that beardy bloke. I didn't recognise her, at first..
Same with that Hammond bloke, say hello and just walk off and pretend you don't know who they are.

Clearly great minds think alike Rob. Realy enjoyed it. :thumbsup:

(Never could remember the rest of that quote)
 
I didn't spot that one, but hopefully it will be on again soon!

I just hope it was a bit more accurate than the one where they featured the E85. :headbang:
 
Shocked this thread isn’t filled with 35iS owners objecting to Vicky stating the top of the line model has 306hp.

Not seen you on here for a while. Did you ever get the problem with your car sorted?

I enjoyed the handlings being described as like a sports car wrapped in a duvet. Sums up what I have read hear nicely. :wink:

I thought that too! :D

They absolutely loved the Z4 in the £50k sports car test and I thought it was a great advert for the current Z4 for sure.

I also enjoyed the E89 bit and I'd love a E89 at some stage in the future. 8)
 
You can't believe it when they summarise the common faults ie e89 z4 being head gasket and coil packs.

No one seems to know what’s wrong with it. Still have it tho as it’s paid for and anything I want to move into is going to set me back £500+ a month.

They did, and that’s the 23/30 because that list is a lot longer for 35i/iS!
 
Let's face it most cars will have a long list of faults.
Sometimes you just have to suck it up and deal with them as they happen.
At least with forums we can try to prevent or fix problems cheaply.
I just noticed a small weep of oil into no.4 spark plug hole, but not panicking yet as car as done 84k miles.
