Hi Kev and welcome to the forum, that is one of the best colour combos in my humble opinion. Also like the wheels. :thumbsup:
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.

Hello!
So what engine is your new steed endowed with? I'm gonna guess a 2.5?
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Welcome and great looking car. Had the same wheels on my Crimson e89. They really suit the car but are a pig to clean

Yep the wheels are great but going to need a bit of maintenance I fear!
To answer your question, Pondrew, yes it’s the 2.5…

Welcome… :thumbsup:
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Welcome to the forum
Love the colour combination
( though I’m slightly biased) 😊
Are you intending to keep it standard?
Or will you be doing some mods ? There is no wrong answer to this … just individual preference. As you well see once you have been here a while. Hope the car grows on you the way it tends to with most owners. They are definitely hard to walk away from
