My New Z4

Hi all,
After about a 3 years of owning a french hatchback i have decided to grow up a bit and get a sensible 3L 2 seater car for my daily driver :P

Its an 05 plate with around 97k on the clock.

I plan on doing some little things like blacking out the kidney grills & lights, swapping it over to my own number plate, adding an aux input and possibly a gaptech module.

Anyway here she is after a quick wash and polish. (I realise now i need to invest in a lint brush!)

Welcome! Nice and low. what's it sitting on?
Bought a similar 3.0i at around 100k miles too recently but having a number of issues to sort on it. Have you checked the DISA condition, and valve cover gasket for leaks. Have since learned that the VCG on these things can go bad at around 100k and need replacing. Also the CCV may be causing oil over-consumption as it too can go bad.
Hope yours is better than mine....

Thanks for the info, seems like a few of those things are an easy check so I will jump on that. As for the springs they are eibachs but I have no idea which ones! Any way to find out?
