I'll keep an eye out for your 8 Ollie, there aren't many about up here ;)

That's a lovely car for less than £8K - someone got a bargain!

If I need a haircut then I know who to contact! :p
(sorry couldnt resist hehe) :D

You'll need to keep your eyes peeled. He must have hit 80 on my 30 road as he left my house lol!

I was struggling to drum up enough interest with it at £8,500/£9,000 and getting a bit fed up and impatient so dropped it to around £8,000.

No room in the Z4 for my scissors I'm afraid ;) Could have been worse, I could have bought a Vitara!

Power hood was standard on Z4s with a proper engine ;)

This was mine, had it around 2004-2005.

Sarg, did yours have runflats? This one has Bridgestone runflats with puny 16" alloys and it tramlines epically!

New wheels/tyres are definitely first on my mod list.

Enjoy your new brief Ollie, keep in touch +++

It's okay, I've got a real one, I'll soon catch him up ;)

Yes, I had runflats in 19"s and it tramlined like a bad 'un, but I learnt to live with it.

Modern runflats are supposedly a lot better, but not had them on any car since then. SWMBO's previous Mini had runflats which were nowhere near as bad, current Mini has same size wheels on standard tyres and rides much better.

There's a lot to be said for the safety element of run flats though, they save my ass once with the Z4, hence I learnt to live with them.

Looking at pics again, I remember that the black paint and/or lacquer was badly affected by bird crap so get in the habit, if not already, of cleaning it off ASAP.
