Hi all,
New Z4C owner here. I've been hiding (lurking sounds too sinister) in the shadows of the forum for almost a year now (learning lots BTW, thanks very much), but having finally picked up my Z earlier this year, it's about time I made myself known.
Like many new owners I have questions, so so many questions, but if my time on here has thought me anything, it's that this-post-is-worthless-without-pics, so in time honoured tradition I'd like to introduce you to Mel Z
I've wanted a coupe for years, but they are uncommon, possibly verging on rare (although that's probably more relevant for the M) here in Ireland, so it's been a long journey as they're rarely up for sale (plenty of roadsters though).
As a result, this is originally a UK car, which I bought from a dealer in Northern Ireland, and moved to Irish plates for silly money (Irish VRT - if you know, you know).
She's a late 2008 build (registered in March 2009, so possibly among the last sold???) sport model, sapphire black, with beige/cream interior, nav, and brushed aluminium dash (which I will changing/spraying/replacing as soon as I get the chance).
Bought in February, but because of you-know-what, it's only been on the road since August (and will be sorn'd at the end of this month until early next year) During that time though I did the usual suspension change to Eibach springs & Bilstein shocks, reconditioned the ABS pump, oil change, some new bulbs, and a stubby of course (ducks)
Plenty of plans, from wheels, to interior changes, to engine mods, but your guess is a good as mine as to when they'll be realised though.
Anyway, that's my lot. Looking forward to learning more from you all, and maybe even contributing some value along the way as well.
