End of a Z4 roadster

[g3org3y]

Sorry to see this. Most important thing is that you're ok.

 

[Lynchy]

Holy s**t, sorry to see your Zed like that. You will have to buy my car now :wink:

 

[Haggisman]

With no injuries shows the strength of the door, no airbag deployed I see. Good luck with the repair.

 

[Commando_Rob]

Sorry to hear and see this mate, main thing is your ok!

keep an eye on eBay you may even find the replacement door and panels in the same colour. Fingers crossed the A pillar is ok.

 

[LittleZ4]

Cheers guys!! It does show they're actually pretty sturdy!

 

[LittleZ4]

I reckon it will be getting fixed!!
It all seems very straight underneath

That's good news.

eBay, the for sale part of the forum and any of the breakers for parts obviously.

 

[LittleZ4]

It looks like there might be a couple of breakers nearby. I've posted in machine monkeys for sale thread as well.

Great to see it being saved! If you struggle for parts try Quarry Motors.

Soooo...........after months of waiting to sort out what was happening, the zed is finally pieced back together, a few engine woes sorted out and back where she belongs, on my driveway!
So far it's had a replacement door, front wing and skirt. There's still a bit of a dent in the rear quarter but that's hopefully going to be sorted soon.
Engine wise it developed a hideous misfire, smoked from the rocker cover. So it's had new plugs and coils, new rocker cover gasket and all the pcv system replaced (been meaning to have that done for a while).
Fingers crossed that's it for a while!!

 

[LittleZ4]

I also what to just say thank you to all those who sent messages with links and parts, and those who gave support to get the car done!! You guys on here are just superb!

 

[Mr Tidy]

It's great to read that your Maldives Z4 is coming back to life.

I hope you can get it finished soon!

 

[LittleZ4]

Few little bits to do and she'll be back to fighting fit. It did throw up a maf sensor fault but fortunately that's not come back

 

[srhutch]

Great that you saved this

Glad you're OK and hopefully you can get it going again.
If not there's a lot more ££ to be made breaking it for parts as a previous member proved.
(....and I need a pair of headlights too )

Err? Did you read the bit where he said it was all fixed now? :?

 

[LittleZ4]

Shameless plug for parts lol. I'll keep that in mind though just in case. If you need a side skirt and a door then I have those kicking about

No, I didnt !! Apologies but I seemed to have completely missed all of page 2 somewhere and the developments , I think I must have got to the bottom of page 1 and thought that was it. Apologies to the OP too

Haha, absolutely no worries here Alan (I hope I remembered your name correctly) i just thought it was a tongue in cheek comment, I did chuckle at it.
The title of the tread does make it seem like it's game over for the little zed.
