Hi all, good to see some banter taking place and some sound advice.

I've had my 57 plate coupe now for abot 6 weeks and am loving it - the sound, the feel, the aesthetics! :thumbsup:

However, got a few questions that i wonder if anyone can answer.
Firstly handling. On the surface its fine, good in fact, but if i start to give it some beans, it seems to understeer in a pretty big way. Has anyone else experienced this? All 4 tyres are new (one rear considerably newer due to a sodding nail! Grrr!) :x and are all the same make, so i doubt its the tyres. All 4 are the standard Bridgestone run flats that come on th 19" wheels.

2) It seems like the xenon's steam up at the bottom in the wet - normal?

Er, im sure i have more questions, mainly around some of the function settings. Im sure you need a degree in quantum physics to understand the manual!

I'll put some pics up of it son, as soon as we get some dry weather!

Happy driving guys & gals. :driving:
 
I havn't come across the Xenon problem before but it sounds like there's moisture getting into the lights somehow. Understeer is a common trait with Z4's, it's mostly to do with the factory geometry settings although the runflats suck too. You can adjust the steering/suspension geometry to dial out the understeer quite easily. Welcome to the forum by the way!
 
Welcome. coupes are fun. You'll find out these fellas are a very visual oriented lot and require pictures or they get rowdy. :)
