Hi from another new proud owner

[AndyJ1]

Hi All,
Back in August I became the proud owner of a lovely Silver Grey 3.0si Z4C. I have been looking to own one for a few years now but had a vw camper that I had spent 10 years restoring to sell first. Sold the camper in June and found the Z in August. It’s a good useable weekend car with 85k on the clock, full BMW service history and only two previous owners.
I absolutely love driving it! A very different driving experience compared with a 45 year old camper van!
Future plans are to carry out a bit of preventative maintenance before the summer including: Oil & filter change, brake fluid change, get calipers refurbed & replace the front disks and pads, fit a new water pump & thermostat and a suspension refresh.
Here’s a pic from the day I first viewed the car. Hope pic shows in post!

Very nice.
Good to see you're in the whippy club.

Thanks for the warm welcome everybody

Tom2207, the colour is Silver Grey, code AO8. Looking to buy a replacement rear n/s wing and am going to have a go at spraying it myself. There has been a repair done on the back wing and I have spotted a micro blister, it’s only a matter of time before it gets worse. Done quite a bit of spraying but never tried metallic, so should be interesting!

zulu4, staying in the whippy club for the foreseeable.
