Have the urge to move on....

[bs0u0118]

I do love my Z4C and have absolutely no issues with it; great car all round, but recently I've found myself looking at the Cayman S online. Anyone care to talk me out of a potential move?

guess we all get the temptation to look over the garden fence from time to time but all i would say (after 2 911's) is unless you buy high up the tree with warranty etc then brace yourself for average build quality & high maintenance costs compared to Z4 .
& don't forget the IMS/engine failure issues pre 07 ? like driving blindfolded with a loaded gun in your pocket :lol:

no it's not, just need to scroll down to the bottom of the page - only briefly mentioned, although I think Stark mentioned it as well on another thread.

I am wanting that six series, do the seats fold, can you get a 2m ladder in, are towbars available, what's the ground clearance like? I know it is a very poor builder's van but ....

So Paza is has become addicted to changing his car every 3 weeks. Interesting

That's pazza all over tho. Never seems happy jumps too quick. Needs to make a more concise decision

RRS Supercharged is an awesome car, but 5mpg when driven hard is scary believe me. A weekend to Manchester cost me £350 in fuel over Christmas one year!!!
