Car looks great Sean :thumbsup: Love a black E85 Z4. It seems to make them look longer and slimmer somehow. Great backdrop too with the Japanese fishing boats. Whereabouts in Japan are you ? Somewhere I've always fancied visiting :thumbsup:

Thank you patriot66! :thumbsup:
Henry Ford would be proud! (of a black car) Heeheehee...
I live in Gamagori city. Located in Aichi prefecture and is home to some hot spring resorts and me.
I am lucky to live by the coast and mountains. There are some awesome places for photography hidden away here and there just ready to be discovered!
If you have the money and time I would recommend visiting Japan. I would recommend staying off the beaten path and visit less "popular" places, as it is never nice to be constantly surrounded by 1001 tourists all the time!

patriot66,
You're welcome!
If you ever find yourself here in Japan, I would be happy to meet up and show you around! :thumbsup:
Thanks, I am indeed a very lucky man to live here.
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank my lucky stars for being here.
It took me the better part of 19 years to finally own a ZED, so am a very happy bloke indeed!

Hi there weegeoff!
Thank you! :D
I am sooo happy to have a Z4, so happy in fact, that every time I walk away from her, I look back and say to myself "Damn, she's hot!"
Heee, heee, heee... :oops:
It is awesome that you came here 13 years on the trot and hope you had a great time, every time!
Oh, and, happy new year and hope this year brings good fortune and health to you and your loved ones!
(This goes for everyone who reads this)

Thank you, you are indeed a very happy chappie. Nice to have you on the forum. :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.

Hi Sean, great looking Zed 👍

My brother lived in Kobe for 5 years teaching English 👍 So, if you ever meet Japanese kids who speak English with a Scottish accent he probably taught them :rofl:

He moved from there to Jeju Island in South Korea and now onto Taiwan 🇹🇼

He raves about it, so much so I’m planning a visit in the summer :thumbsup:

Hello there jock156.
Thanks, she is really beautiful!
That's so cool, such a small world isn't it! Your brother seems to like Asia, so do I, have lived here 18 years now. (in four months time it will be 19 years!)
Let me know if you come over to Japan, I will do what I can to meet up.
Thanks to you all here on the forum for welcoming me here and I hope we have many awesome exchanges for years to come!
Take it easy and have a great 2023!
