Just picked up this e89 in Atacama Yellow.

SDrive 30i MSport (manual box) with a lot of extras/upgrades (heated seats, auto-dimming/folding mirrors, automatic lights, cruise control, park distance control, climate control, satnav/music storage, ...).

Having a lot of fun with it so far - the country roads round here (Scotland) are great with the top down (and the heater and seats full on - sunny but cold :)).

Welcome to the madhouse. I’m sure B21 will be along shortly to sign you up for the Atacama Scotland subgroup
HQ of 'Norfolk Zed Rescue'.
Always happy to help if I can.

If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:

I will be asking lots of questions, I’m sure! There are a few small things to sort out as you’d expect on an older car (eg some trim details) but she is in very good condition overall

Thanks @validwarlord. Just dipping my toe into Z4 ownership :) This will be my fun car so a 2015 was out of my price bracket (my wife wants a new kitchen to compensate!). Which version did you go for?

Whereabouts in our wonderful country are you based?

If you need leading astray I have a few ideas.. :tumbleweed: :thumbsup:

Hi Kevin

We have just brought a 2015 2.0 s drive which suits our needs as this is a second car, 1 owner from new with 48k with full BMW history + the mot's to back up the mileage its in Deep Sea Blue/Canberra Beige Leather in execellent condition, I know its not the fastest in the Z4 line up but a decent remap should help if needed

Hi Kevin

Forgot to add its has a decent list of factory fitted extras, no heated seats unfortunately but I believe these can be retro fitted so maybe I may consider doing this.
