I've seen one 15 plate Z4 so far. I see a VO Z4 every day :thumbsup:

I got confused with 2 John's earlier :oops:

Wish I saw mine every day, but I've only managed about 270 miles. Summer's coming though, the clocks have gone forward, golf training in the evenings is soon going to be possible, so lots more usage coming up.

I did actually see one other 15 plate Z4, but as it was at a dealer (waiting collection on March 1st) it doesn't count.

Ah, I thought there was some confusion, no probs :thumbsup: I don't know what's happened to the other John though (the one with the new car).

Although I see my VO zed every day, normally it's just sitting there in the garage. I've clocked up about 3800 miles since getting it just about 8 months ago.

Welcome to the club John. It's getting pretty crowded in here now :D

Having said that, I haven't seen another 15 Z4 yet, nor can I remember the last time I saw an IS on the road, nor can I ever remember seeing a VO Z4 that didn't belong to me or a dealer. :rofl:

Come to Chorley and a 15 IS you definitely will see but then again the exclusivity of the IS is nice too! :-)


Call in at Bolton on your way- Valencia Orange 35is here as well - though not on a 15 plate. Common as muck! :D

Black roof ? :D

No - all over VO! Have thought about getting the roof wrapped though having seen one with a black roof. Looks nice.

Definitely recommended, although I did weigh this up for a good few hours before spec'ing it -- http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=73751&start=75
 
The way I see it is this - if I have it factory painted black then I'm stuck with it. but if it's wrapped black I can change my mind and have it VO again... price wise it's about the same too :thumbsup:

Definitely a lot cheaper to have it wrapped.
 
Thanks for the posts you nice lovely people you........having a total mare trying to get pics up, the stupid laptop won't recognise the stupid camera, it's bleeps on plugging it in but no symbol shows up to show it's connected so nothing to click on to get started, both machines are stupid. I even took a few pics on my phone this morning and then sent them to speedy Graham to put up for me but the stupid phone wouldn't send them, so that's stupid as well. :headbang:

I'll keep trying with the camera but to get pics up to sell my M a computer savvy friend had to load them onto her's as she couldn't get the two to communicate either, and she's abroad. Mate down the road should be able to help me out at the weekend if I draw a blank. :x

I know it's me that's stupid but i'm blaming technology, it can't answer back.... :roll:
 
Glad its all you wanted John , easy solution if you can't load pics via a host is advertise the car on Gumtree with attached pics :D

Congrats! Z4 is a truly stunning car, you won't believe it's 6 years old shape!

Cheers RX, yes it is, I've wanted one ever since they came out in 2009, they look even better in the flesh, still pinching myself, nipped round to the garage i rent tonight just to have a quick peek, it's bad enough doing it but even worse admitting it.... :o

Well I'll let you into a secret, we all look, lust over and protect our lovely E89s not just once a day but several times a day. I probably look out the window at mines a good 20 times and I'm 3 floors up from it. My other half says we need to move so I can stop checking it every 5 mins but I actually like to look at it, the reflections, the colour and when it's wet the beading from the wax :thumbsup: I must admit, I'd rather be :driving:
 
Glad it's not just me, you begin to doubt your sanity... :lol:

Hav'nt been like this since the MR2 days, the SW20 is imo a fantastic looking car, the E85's we're very nice but this E89 is something else, can't find anything I don't like about it. :D
 
Good to hear John :thumbsup: like you, I fell for the car when I first saw it back in 2009, infact I have the silly little app bmw did and you could pick a car. Funnily enough I picked a 35i as that was the top model at the time but chose black and red interior and red with Ivory interior and ended up with blue with Ivory 5 years later.
