Morning guys, I made my purchase on an E86 coupe last night and I'm still absolutely buzzing, I could hardly sleep (not sure because of the car or the heat!) so I went for an early morning jet around the countryside for a bit and took a few snaps for my Newbie post!

She's a Z4 3.0si sport with gloss black CSL replicas, higher than average mileage but well looked after and FSH. I'm coming from a BMW 320D so I'm very excited for the 2-seater sports car life.

I'm East Anglia way, would love to attend the first meet over this way at the weekend but unfortunately I'll be taking her up north!

Good to meet you guys :)

Hi and welcome :thumbsup:

Nothing wrong with the north - not all of us grew up round here! Hopefully Saturday will be the first of a regular breakfast meet so chance to see us yet. I don't think there are many E86's around Norfolk I've only seen the very occasional one.

Would have been good to be there for the first meet but yeah I'm away for work - hopefully it goes well so there's another!
Yeah there aren't many at all around here are there.

Cheers mate! They're actually just phone photos, wish I had taken my camera
 
Great pics! Did you buy that car in Beccles? Where are you based? I'm in Norwich so will keep my eyes peeled for you.

Looks great, and nothing wrong with buying a higher than average mileage car if it's been looked after! I'm based in Cambridge - so probably not too far
 
Good morning and welcome.
Shame we won't meet you on Saturday but I'm sure this will just be the start of something more regular.
Already asked, I know, but whereabouts are you based?
 
Great to have another E86 owner on the forum. And I must say, an excellent first post! Lovely car you have there :thumbsup:
 
Thanks for all the welcomes guys and glad you like the car! :)

Yes that's the one mate. I'm Norwich too, I think I saw you driving down Bracondale last week actually!

Norwich based with Jock mate.
 
Congratulations! What a great start to your ownership. It sits so well too - what suspension setup do you have and are the wheels 18s?

Yup! That was me!

Haha hope it went well! I'm golden triangley area around there. The pictures are around Stoke Holy Cross way this morning.

Thanks mate. She's on Eibach 20mm springs so slightly lower than the stock 15 I believe it is?
Wheels are 18s yes on Yokohama V105's
 
Great introduction to the forum and fantastic photos - welcome aboard. :thumbsup:

And welcome to Coupe ownership!
 
Lovely looking colour & choice of Z, welcome onboard
