My Z3 is from 2001 and I bought it from a sweet girl in Texas over twelve years ago. . . She drove it to work for a few years and then placed an add on the internet, which we saw and responded to.
Have loved the little car ever since.

Have included a picture of our car. . . Our pride and joy.

As much as possible, I have always done all repair and service. . . when possible. And, have used sites such as yours to help me past the difficult parts. I also own the shop manual for our 'beast'.

Bye tha bye, she is the 3.0i version and I will look forward with great interest to your input.

also, I am american born, but 30% Irish and absolutely love Guiness!!!

MY REGARDS, William

Hello and welcome to the forum :thumbsup:
Hello Keet !!!
You wife's car is a real looker, as they say. . . .

I'm very prejudiced about BMW's being about the best car around. . . . Once, over forty years ago a friend of mine said that BMW's were the best cars around and now I believe her. . . !!

It will take a little time to get to know all of you, but, it will be time well spent !!!

More Later !!!!

Hi William welcome to the forum from me in Oxfordshire. A nice pic but feel free to post some more. Have you kept it standard or added any mods?
Dear Althulas,
I do have a few more pics and will get around to sending them.

I sometimes think about some changes, but, I do so love everything about my little girl. . . I hope no one is offended that I feminise my little car. She hardly manages to keep from getting me into serious trouble with the local constaples. . . (highway patrol. . .)

Will look forward to more pithy conversation.

Take Good Care, William

Dear andyglym,

We particularly love this color, but, was just the 'luck of the draw' for us to have looked at the internet presentation and just fell in love with "tha Bebe Z" . . . Twelve years ago she was offered for $8,000 dollars and it turned out wonderfully for us. . . I'm certain you know how much a BMW can cost to keep up. But, we have been spared any really heavy expenses.

I look forward to more converse with you.
and, YES, Guiness is "tha food of tha Gods"

LOVED the "It's what you arrived in" quote !!!
