Back in a BMW

Post by philip27 » Sat Sep 25, 2021 11:24 pm

Picked up the new daily driver today and back in a BMW almost 4 years after selling my E89 Z4 for the Cayman.

New motor is a 2015 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe 20i X Drive in Tanzanite Blue with ivory interior. Really nice spec overall and it’s just coming up to 18k on the clock.

The Cayman is staying for weekend fun but it’s nice to be back in a BMW even if it’s not a Z4. The 4 Series is lovely and comfortable and I’m quite impressed by the performance overall it’s more than enough for everyday.

I still enjoy browsing the forum and seeing everyone’s lovely Z4’s.

Obligatory pictures of course 🙂

Since the introduction of the 4 series gran coupe, I’ve thought it was much nicer than the three series, good mileage for a 2015 car :thumbsup:
