Long time lurker, but just bought my (first...) Z4 so thought I’d get involved!
Back in the late 2000s I was a student in London, and one day I saw the most beautiful car I’d ever laid eyes on. I soon found out that it was a Z4 Coupe and lusted after them ever since. Unfortunately I have had to commute long distances for the past 10 years and have worn out an old VW Golf followed by a 120D coupe. I am now in the position of being able to walk to work so have treated myself to something I won’t have to abuse!
Bought privately from a nice bloke in south Wales. Drove it home to Oxford and grinned all the way back
Feels spot on mechanically but some aesthetics to work on:
- Badges (front and back) - front ordered
- Gear knob knackered - beige leather one ordered (looking forward to the challenge of the swap by the sounds of things!)
- Various bits of plastic trim inside looking a bit worn
- Windscreen moulding perished
- Wiper blades perished - on order
- Has had a bit of non stock plastic fitted around the bottom of the front bumper - need to take this off (carefully)
Also ordered a cover (Winter is coming and all that)
Looking forward to pestering you all with my questions as I gradually pick over this beauty and perfect it!
(Sorry - parking space outside my flat not the most glamorous location for a photo shoot - better ones to come)
