    E85/E86 owners... is there any reason why you did not go for an E89?

    There was no E89 when I bought mine in 2004 :roll: :rofl:

    Indicator Problems

    No, all standard lights on a 2004. I have an old code reader but it wouldn't connect unfortunately. May need to invest in a new, better one. Thanks for all the suggestions

    Indicator Problems

    Thanks for this colb. Update today though..... On my drive into work, the problem has switched to the left side! Right indicators flasshing normally and left indicators going like the clappers. Does this sound like a deeper issue than potential dodgy connections? Thanks

    Owned since new…..?

    The only breakdown was when the front suspension went, and I ran out of petrol once :oops: It's difficult to put into words, some cars just get you and my attachment to this one has never been broken, even by owning a number of unbelievable Porsches, that on paper beat it in every department...

    Possible sale of my Z4

    Surely the answer is simple? We love our cars, you have a low mileage example you just can't drive much for the reasons already stated. If you can sell it for £5-6k, do so and buy another "normal" mileage silver 2.5 Z4 for £3k, pocket the difference, keep some for maintenance and spend the...

    Any love for the 2.2

    I am a 2.2 evangelist. Had mine from new, I bought it in October 2004. I love the straight 6 and it is as smooth today as the day I picked it up. The options I couldn't afford when I bought it I have retro fitted myself, hard top, electric m sports heated seats, cruise control 18" 108's etc...

    What have you done to your car today?

    I limped into the nearest garage with a broken front spring. What a horrible noise, and smell of burning rubber. Unbelievably, I was driving it to my new house where it has a new home, a double garage all to itself, and this happened. You couldn't make it up :headbang:

    Lets see your Watches

    I find it so interesting that the love of watches goes so well with the love of cars. Some weird psychology there! Anyway, I'm useless at posting photos, I just can't work it out (Help?), but I currently own 1) A 46mm Navitimer 01 (it's huge!) which is, to me, one of the most stunning time...

    Coolant needed

    Hi, hope everyone is coping with this lockdown and staying safe. My coolant light has come on, and I can't get anywhere to buy any, so my question is, can I top up with water to make sure i don't cause any damage to the radiator? Thank you in advance.

    Strange OEM stereo?

    I have a 2004, so a pretty early car with a changer (how old fashioned is that now?!) and have never seen anything as atrocious as that 😱
