Welcome on board. Love those seats 8) :thumbsup:

Forgive this comment, but my memories of cycling through bolton in my youth (Along long time ago) are rain and potholes. Tell me it's all different now. :)

Nope.... Bolton potholes are a tourist attraction, and the rain is really just wet sunshine round here...Its always sunny in Bolton !
The previous owner mentioned the seats and dash are pretty rare? I am new to this bmw z life... still learning what's what on the car.
Coming from a modified 71 spitfire I had to move it on after a few years and got the boring (but extremely quick) electric mini lease car, lost the will and got the z4 as a 2nd car to energise the soul again.. 😃

Welcome to the forum Gaz. :thumbsup:

Those bi-color seats are pretty rare, and the Cirrus aluminium trim on the dash seems to be very rare. My previous Z4 had it and I loved it, but hardly saw another with it.
