    Z4M Coupe - Midnight Blue - 57K Miles

    Hi All, I have a lovely MC available. However its a slightly complicated situation with regards to timing which in light of offering full disclosure and not wasting anyone's time I have described at the end of the advert. Here’s the key info on the car: - 2007 Z4M Coupe - Reg: NX07 LXP - 57k...

    What have you done to your car today?

    Had the MC professionally detailed before it goes into storage. Very happy with the result. Annoyingly, steam cleaning the steering wheel resulted in moisture around the horn wiring which stuck on with the ignition. Fixed now but managed to break the latch on the glove box getting to the fuse...

    Z4M ///M Tri-color badge on rear

    Here we go, before and after pics. This is the rear badge but all the same. Peel off, use nail polish remover to clear the sticky residue, apply. Total 2 mins per badge.

    BMW 12 year anti corrosion warranty

    My Z4MC has started to develop two small areas of concern: 1: Inside the hatch (the internal part that is horizontal when closed and facing you at eye-level when open) has a couple small areas of rust starting to come through. They are not in a place where water could collect and are...

    Z4M ///M Tri-color badge on rear

    Arrived today (took about 2 weeks) but not fitted. When I first opened them I thought the reds looked too burgandy! But then googled a genuine OEM Badge and it actually looks quite similar. Perhaps my original badges have faded more than I realised. Pics below:

    M market watch

    A chap on pistonheads shared some data with me. He's been tracking advertised prices of Z4MCs since 2014. Hopefully he won't mind me sharing this but as he was openly offering to anyone I assume he won't. Thanks again Spencer if you see this! Price on the vertical axis, mileage on the horizontal:

    Storing a car for 2 years

    Say in theory I had an overseas job for 2 years but couldn't bear to part with the Zed. Is there a realistic way to store it undriven for that time? I know ideally it would be with a trustworthy friend/family member who could drive it occasionally but then it will need to be taxed which at...

    Front Towing Eye Cover

    Hi All, You may have seen my previous post about taking out a pheasant! I'm not sure if it happened at the same time but my Towing Eye Cover has gone AWOL. Can anyone give me advice on how to source a new one. I'm assuming BMW will pull my pants down to get a part and then have it painted to...
