Welcome Alan. Tell us about your 'other' classic car?
Hi Duncodin, I have had Rover P6's for the last 22 yrs. They have all been V8's with manual boxes, the one I have now I have had for 5yrs and I love it, I just thought it was a good time for a change. I know I will miss it when it goes and I then have 22yrs worth of collected spares to shift. AlanDSCN1325.JPG

Not an easy area to get your hands in Stephen. I have been lucky enough to only have to bleed the rear brakes. Alan

Shirl's dad had 2 P5s? (like the Queen Mother had) when we first started going out. There by hang a few tales. Her brother ended up with the oldest one, a J reg.

The Z3 must feel small, modern and quite fast compared to the Rover. I hope to spot you out and about in your Z3 in West Sussex. I do drive there quite often.

Hi Jam03, The cars are very different, I love the Rover to look at externally and internally. The Z3 is much more fun to drive and I also love the style of the Z3. I know I will use and enjoy the Z3 more than the Rover.

Hi,

Thank you for letting me join, I have always had an interest in cars and motorcycles. Over the last couple of years I have reduced my motorcycles and decided to change my classic car and go for a Z3. I still have my classic car but it will be on its way soon. I purchased my Z3 at the beginning of December and travelled from West Sussex to Scotland with my wife to collect it. I chose it because the colour and spec ticked the boxes for me and the car has only covered 33,000 miles. As with any car of this age there are jobs to do to get the car how I want but I am looking forward to this and the times ahead.

Alan
Pretty pretty car.
