We are currently on holiday in Alsace, eastern France. In two weeks we have seen 3 other Z3s and the owner of the gite we are staying in has an E89 Z4 35 biturbo as a weekend car. We introduced them to each other the other evening.

Obviously somebody new to BMWs and tried using that stick thingy next to the steering wheel, without realising indicators don't function above 20 mph.

Thought I would share this info. and maybe save people a few pennies. I don't have any affiliation with any of the Companies mentioned but was so impressed with the parts and the prices I felt they deserved a mention My rear caliper on the drivers side has been sticking intermittently for the...

Said hello, passed on a Z.org card and had a chat with Rob from Sunderland in the carpark at The Sage earlier today. Have seen his car a few times before, parked at the same place, but today I met the owner. The car is a silver post facelift 2.0, W151---, with black roof. I suggested he get on...

When refitting my handbrake cables I managed to drop the small double holed link plate that fits across the end of the ends of the two cables before the adjusting and lock nuts are fitted. It seems to have gone down the side of the trans tunnel under the carpet. to get it out would seem to be a...

Spotted, flashed and waved Silver Z3, reg SG51???, heading towards Rowlands Gill. Not a local plate. Was somebody from the forum visiting the area?

That's what they say up here in the north-east. Basically if you don't ask you will not get what you want. So I am going to give it a try. I have a rear beam to transport from the seller (@Synclare) in Lichfield up north so that I can refurb. it and replace my rear beam bushes. Is there anybody...

A bit off the "main" road is this little village on the side of a loch overlooking the Isle of Skye. We spotted a Dutch registered 2.2ltr post face-lift Z3 in Topaz blue, parked up. Nobody about so couldn't say hello. Great road to drive on this brilliant sunny day.

Touring in the Highlands with overnight stop in Ullapool. Silver Z3 (RXXXBRG) pulled in alongside us. Had a chat with the couple from Dudley, who were travelling in it, and recommended they look at Z.org site. Perhaps they will say hello on here later? Plenty of top down driving, great views and...
