The Exclusive Club Maldives

Post by Z4-Dan » Fri Mar 12, 2021 5:38 am

Good evening!! I just found this exclusive club and would like to join. I have had my Maldives Blue 2004 Z4 since I ordered it from the factory in 2004. It is currently getting new motor mounts, convertible top pumps and a bunch of other little repairs but I love my car. It has been from coast to coast twice and has 250,000 miles. Looking forward to reading all about others who have the same car and the same passion for it.

Your car looks great, you'd never know it had done that mileage!

And they look so much better in States where you don't need a front license (number) plate. :thumbsup:

Thank you. I’ve always been a purist at heart although I would like to put 108s on it.

Thought I'd stop in to say hi. Been a Maldives blue owner for a couple of years now but didn't know this club existed. Had a few woes with boot flooding on mine and I'm also just getting the front bumper painted this week because the original paint started to flake after a recent pressure wash, but other than that - she's all good. Survived the winter in storage and should hopefully be back on the road for the weekend. :driving:

Also - thought you might like to see a gift my brother custom made for me during lockdown. Matching Coasters and Key-Ring. :D :D
