Newbie 3.0 in Kent

[doccrx]

Well I've gone a bought my first sensible car yesterday, never even driven one as of yet. Its a shame as its sitting on my drive and I won't be home untill the new year to drive it.




Going to keep it fairly standard, really looking forward to it though.

Matt.

Welcome to the forum, thats a long wait to get your hands on it :?

 

[Stuartt]

Welcome along, nice choice of Zed there

You have come to the wrong place if you think you will get away with leaving it standard, the whippy will be the first to go :rofl:

There are some great forum members in the Kent ish area that organise a few sunday drives that are well worth going on, so keep an eye out.

Hi and welcome.

As Stuartt said, good luck in keeping it standard.

Both Stuartt and me along with quite a few others meet up for Kent/Sussex runs, so keep your eyes open if your up for a run.

Welcome to the forum, I thought you had stolen my car for a minute, Oh and you need to keep the whippy, it compliments the lines

Hi and welcome. Thanks for the pic - looks nice, especially the whippy aerial. I have been on here 2.5 years and the only "mods" have been new wheel caps and ///M wheel badges!

Enjoy :driving:

Welcome! That's quite a wit get your hands on it...not sure I would have such patience...unless I was incarcerated! :driving:

Hi guys, it took me a while to work out what a "whippy" was, i'm presuming its the aerial lol.

Last time I had my own car in the UK was 6 years years ago I think, so im desperate to get home. Got a lot of learning to do as I've always owned early 90's japanese track cars.

Will be definitely up for some drives :driving:

Welcome to the Forum. Yep a Whippy's not an Ice cream, but a device for receiving radio signals and far superior to a stubby :wink: Where are you stuck until Christmas, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm in the middle east, I'm a destination wedding photographer.

Welcome OP!

Sounds like you have a pretty good job - but now you have a toy in the UK maybe it isn't so good!

Hope you have patience, and enjoy your Z4 when you do get here.

Nice work. There are worse places to be stuck. :wink:

Nice car, the best colour !! If you have wood interior you'll learn to love it when you realise what a pain it is to change ! :rofl:

Here's my very similar car...... http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=91721

Nothing wrong with wood, your car is identical to mine apart from the auto stick on mine.

Welcome to the forum, look forward to seeing you in the not too distant future

 

[doccrx]

Well I've been back in the UK for over a week now, really pleased with the car (considering I never sat in one when I bought it.) Done a couple of jobs already, but needs sound proofing on the doors and a aux in for the phone. Only problem is, it makes me want the M version :roll:

Hi and Welcome!
It has been some time since your first post!! The Zed was sat for a long time? No issues? I think some suffer from battery issues if not run frequently?
I'm glad you're enjoying, of which I'm sure you'll get plenty more! :driving: There is always the route of Supercharger :evil:

 

[doccrx]

Yes its been sat in my parents drive for a while, so got my dad to start it now and then. Only issue I have is a small leak in the passenger footwell.

Well that's handy
