Lifer after 7 years of Z4 ownership!

Almost seven years after buying my first BMW it seems I'm a lifer! :roundel:

I moved from two decades of classic MG, Alfa, Stag ownership to the Z4 in the hope that days out to the coast a weekend away would no longer involve a meeting with the AA man and winter re-builds! The Z4 hasn't let me down so far.

The previous owner suggested getting on the forum and it's been a fantastic source of information and entertainment, wheels and parts. I now also know about VANOS, MAF, RFT's!, the vagaries of BMW electronics, Ctek, what a clay bar is, roof motor drains, the mysteries of the offset, what makes a good advert, ..... and why I won't fit a stubby :P

So thanks guys :thumbsup:

a few highlights,
On the original Turbines which I still like, shame they were 17"s

I joined a couple of months after you .I am way behind you on post count but have carried out a few more mods. :thumbsup:
 
Congrats- I've had mine nearly 10 yrs and still love it. Much as I live my new F15 X5 I still get a big grin every time I open the garage and see my z!

I always said you had too much time on your hands
Shouldn't you be busy entertaining your guests :lol:

Cheers guys :)

Guests? ....... Oh yes :wink:
 
Congrats, you will be here forever now.

I love those turbine wheels as does Mr. Wilk's, and I think we both agree with you, shame they weren't 18"
 
Congratulations OP. :thumbsup:

I also love those turbines - despite being 17s to me they look better than the 108s (shouldn't really say that seeing as I have 108s)! :?
 
Congrats mate - I too must be close to 7 years of owning zeds - first one was silver with whirlees and a whippy - also loved those wheels - had it nearly 3 years - current one almost identical to yours - sterling grey , 108's plus the much desired whippy :D Sold my old one to a mate who had pestered me for months to sell it to him - had acute withdrawal symptoms so bought another ! My car history doesn't include such an exotic model as a Stag ( always loved them despite their appalling reliability reputation ) but did include MG's ( real traditional MG's not the crap MGF ) Hope you enjoy another 7 years :thumbsup:


 
Im a relative newcomer at 5 years and three months.

3 Z's and 3 Stags.

have to say this is the best forum I frequent too.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

If your handbrake is anything like mine I bet you have it in gear in picce 4!!
:lol:
Too right it was! It's actually the slipway used by Top Gear for the infamous indestructible HiLux stunt and I'm not so sure the Zed' would come through so well :)
Thanks again guys.
