Matthew's Montego Blue Z4

Hi guys,

Since I sold my previous Z4 a few years ago I've been after another. I really wanted a 3.0L this time and was so close to bagging one but just missed out.

Then this one popped up in my ideal spec 5 miles away. Not a 3.0L, it's the 2.0L like my last one but it's not really a problem. The Blue and White combo is exactly what I was looking for.

2007 Sport
80,000 miles
Full service history (last one was Inspection 2)
M Sport seats
Non-run flats all round (what a difference this makes!)
M Sport steering wheel
Parking sensors

I love it.

First job was to change the bloody awful aerial that had perished...

I also managed to shine up the exhaust tip. This is in the process of being replaced by twin tips from a 2.5 kindly donadted to me by another forum member.

I've also put my private plate on the car. What a difference a new 'clean' plate can make to a car.

A few days after I got the car home I started getting a strange noise from the starter motor. Decided it was good practice to get the car into a BMW indy and let them take a good look over her.

I needed a new starte motor, rear spring (broken), coolant top up and they also highlighted a rear tyre has a nail in it.

Luckily the car came with an RAC warranty who without fuss paid up for the starter motor and rear spring to the tune of £340 :D
 
Couldn't agree more about the plate, I bought a short one that doesn't mean a great deal to me but mainly for aesthetics. The new style plates are just ugly.

Agreed on the short plates personally think they add to the look of the motor,but I am biased.
Great colour by the way op and welcome to the forum :thumbsup: WP_20160729_06_57_54_Pro.jpg

So long as your loving it nobody else's opinion really matters :driving:
I am sure there would be more M cars on the roads if we all had the funds :D
 
Looking great OP! :thumbsup:

I am obviously completely biased, but I think Montego Blue looks great on a Z4! :lol: And it looks like you may have a Pearl Grey interior too - perfect!
 
Stunning colour - love it :thumbsup: . Interior would have me constantly worried about getting it dirty though :(

I just use leather wipes every week or so (and don't drive it in new jeans). :lol:

As a last resort there is always Scuffmaster!

My thoughts. I have blue with black but the white really lifts both colours and makes the whole car stand out.

could I keep a white interior clean :? Not a chance - you're a better man than me - very impressed :thumbsup:
