Afternoon All,

I figured I should finally introduce myself as I've been in the Z for a few months now and have been lurking on the forum for a while, getting plenty of information from the wealth of knowledge you guys have!!

In hindsight (being the wonderful thing it is) I think I may have slightly overpaid. Although the mileage, condition and service history are all very good, so I justified the price tag. Not to mention the grin on my face every single time I drive it :driving:

I've already compiled a list of jobs to do, at the moment it is mostly restorative/preventative measures (such as re-locating the motor, reviving the leather seats and fabric roof, etc etc) but I'm sure as time goes on I'll start to look at the more 'interesting' mods :evil: That being said, I'm such a spanner when it comes to using a spanner that I even managed to snap the thread connected to the aerial base when I swapped it over for a stubby...that was the first trip to BMW for spares!!

Anyhoo - hopefully I'll be around lots and keep you updated to my progress, and then inevitably ask for advise when I've made a mess :D Below is the picture I took when I bought it, been trying to keep the thing clean ever since!

Nice original example

Thanks guys, I was really impressed with the condition when I viewed and ordered this one. Especailly as I had previously seen a couple of really poorly looked after ones at a similar price point.

You are right on both accounts - the amount I paid pales in comparison to the amount of fun I have already had from this car. And yes
it is Titanium Silver (lovely colour but really doesn't seem to hide any dirt!!)

Thanks for the welcomes everyone :D
