my last summer with the z4m!

Lots of months I have not posted in the forum, after the loss I had of my car. My friend sad to hear that you have to choose, but I would choose my work everyday versus the car. With one good year you can have it back. The other way doesn't work. I have worked the same like you for many years to buy that car and when I bought it I made a promise to myself. The promise was that in case my works needs the money the car will go. If I could afford it I would choose your car everyday instead of a low mile stock vehicle.

Thanks man, a comforting read.

Hey Byron! It's been a while since I've posted here. We'll be sorry to see you go. As a fellow ESS Z4M owner, I can attest to the OEM quality and shear speed of the kit!

I noticed your 996tt (GT2?) profile pic. Many of us supercharged Z4M folk have moved to 996/997 Turbos (I'm just different and kept my fleet of Z's). My 966tt is heavily modified, and I love the insane torque of the Mezger engine.

Good luck with your next opportunity! The only advice I have is that half of the enthusiasts I know that sold their Z4M's have ended up regretting it so much that they bought another. My ESS Z4M's previous owner wants his car back, and it's got many more rock chips than yours. While it may not impress like it used to, it drives superior to anything BMW makes these days.

Pokey!! hows it going brother, arh man you've been on this road with me from day one.... However.... some chanes are happening over here.... i now have a work van which is working out alittle better for me, ive traded in one of my other vehicles , so currently i think the z4m advert actually lapsed some time ago.... this shows the effort im putting into it actually going! im so aware how special the car is with this history low ownership, condition and mileage, so it will always be my last resort but one that must be entertained.... As a businessman i must be willing to do what needs to be done.. HOWEVER.... im working my ass off to make the z4m going look less attractive!

Byron, howly cows mate.. but I hear ya man, business must come first.

Hope you get to hang on to it mate as I know how much you love it, but as you said man, its up to the universe.

Hope to goes well Byron, I remember you starting out down the supercharged road just after I’d returned my M3 cab to stock (I had an ESS kit running 14 PSi with a built low compression engine from Simpson)

i remember you well!! man how time flies! How are you enjoying your z4m?? would love alittle review from your last vehicle!
 
Update....

Sold two of my other vehicles, purchased a cheap ex police forensics van for work..... This is working NICELY..... why why why i didnt do this earlier i dont know!! massive monthly savings on running costs... Z4M sale looking much less attractive now! Main transport is now the van BUT its bloody comfy, huge and i really love driving it too. The van is currently under going some customization, Wrapping, signing out , window tinting and a TV :evil:
 
Great news Mr B, the idea of your car in someone else’s hands just doesn’t work for me. The newbie post from the new owner would make me cry, then they’d stick it on bags and in a wrap and I’d hate them forever. I’d like never to be that angry please :lol:

And I’m delighted to hear business is going so well - how’s Wee Bee ?
