How long have you owned your Zed?

- Start date
Four Months, I've uprated the lights and brakes and have made a few subtle mods. I love it. I would probably sell it in a year or so to upgrade to a black facelift model with red leather. I realise now that when I bought it, all the good ones were selling fast so I settled for my second choice of silver with black leather, it was the only one owner car available at the time. Black with red was on the top of my shopping list but they sold super quick or had more miles than the starship Enterprise. No regrets though
Almost a year. It seems to have gone so quick and i still smile every time i'm in it 
I plan on keeping it for a few years. But would still like to be driving a Z4. Say i sold it in 2011, it would probably be for one of the last 2009 M Coupe's, or a new shape twin turbo'd one.

I've had mine 3.5 years and I'm planning to keep it for another year at least. But then the prime candidate for a swap is an E85 M Roadster (probably in Imola Red), so it's not really like changing!
Other alternatives I'm musing are an E89, although they don't really do anything for me at the moment but maybe it'll be a grower, or a 135i cabrio , but it'd be in spite of the styling. I'd like a 987 Boxster S but they just don't represent good value at the moment (compared to an M anyway).

I've intended keeping cars longer in the past but there's always been a good reason to sell:RichardG said:Good to see I'm not alone in having kept the Zed so long and that most other owners seem to want to hang on to theirs for some time yet.
Clio 172 (3 years/29k miles) - falling apart
Civic Type R (8 months) - boring
Ibiza TDI (almost 2 years) - didn't need a sensible diesel anymore and could afford something dafter >>>> Z4
Hopefully change all that with the Z4 and join the longer ownership members
