Thanks for the birthday greetings, I no longer have my Z4, I sold it as I was tired of warning light issues particularly airbag and handbrake lever ratchet all mot issues. I have first generation Merc slk at the moment which has proven very reliable so far and I am on the look out for a Z3 or Z4 but there is not much choice here up north. I bought my last Z4 unseen and had it delivered by transporter, the seller was genuine in his description of the car and I was pleased when it arrived, I dont think I would do that again though I would wish to view and drive the car pre purchase.
Anyway thanks again for the birthday greetings, I still view the forum regularly although dont participate much now, perhaps in the future.
