That makes sense. I was going ask why on earth you'd want more camber at the rear. On lowered Z4's the camber sits at about -2.5 degrees on the rear. That's plenty for normal road use.

Yeah. I was a little concerned when they told me especially as it's not lowered. But hey s**t happens.

I had mine set at 2.5 on the rear for a couple of sets of tyres. I've put it back to 1.5 now, to reduce the tyre wear as I don't really go on track these days. Can't say I notice much difference driving on the road. :)
 
As its been a nice decided to give the car a clean. Took ages. All I need to do is get near side wheels refurbed and new discs and brakes fitted and that's it for this year

That looks beautiful, Rossnr. Just needs a hardtop to complete the aggresive theme.
Yes Ben I've been on the lookout for one a while now. May have to wait till spring/summer as very expensive at moment

That's your best bet mate. No point even entertaining the idea of buying one in the rainy months as the price of them goes sky high.
 
First clean inside since buying the car a couple of weeks ago so though I would do it properly


also painted the small piece of trim in the middle of the centre console
 
Hells Bells, thats thorough! I'm guessing you remove the number plates when your cleaning and polishing the body work?

Looking as sleek as ever there rossonr, I really like the black 'stealth' look of your Zed :thumbsup:
 
12 months on - Oil, filter and air filter all changed
Just checked, only 3,800 miles since the last change

Checked roof drains while I was at it as well. All clear :)
 
Replaced the oil filter housing gasket and idler pulley. Hopefully now I won't have any oil leaks or a squealing noise.

Cheers Marlon I think it looks even better in the flesh
 
Seemed a very nice day so cleared the leaves from the cover and went for a little spin, hood down. :driving: :)

:lol: Nah, but when I buy a car I always like to give it a thorough clean and try and make it look and smell like new, and because it's so tight down the side of the seats I thought for the sake of a few bolts I may as well just whip them out, glad I did as it wasn't nice under there :? :)
 
Fun day today. First light drive up to the Surf on the North coast. Beautiful sunrise. 8) Headed back home for 10:30. 100 miles, of open top joy, under the wheels :driving: and several excellent waves caught to boot. :thumbsup:

Spot of Breakfast in the garden. Then hoovered and washed the Zed, hoovered and washed the Mazda and finally, hoovered and washed the Clio. Best of all rewarded for my efforts, with a delicious roast dinner courtesy of Mrs G. :D
