I'm from the West of Scotland near Loch Lomond where I have a stable full of 2 wheelers , a Bermudan sloop garden ornament ,2 rugrats taller than me and the most understanding squeeze in the business.

At this time of year I am commuting (30 miles round trip) on 4 wheels which at the moment is an alfa GT. You see I am an alfa romeo refugee. I want a soft top 2 seater and as much as I love alfas the latest Brera shaped spider does nothing for me. The old GTV style spider makes me almoooost.......nah still dont like it.

So its going to be a Zed. Not sure which one yet , at the moment a Z4 but the Z3 also fits the bill. I managed to Keep the Alfa on the road for 4 years so although I know which end of the screwdriver to hold I have no knuckles , patience or money left.

I have a few questions to ask before I splash the cash which is why I joined the forum early. Please to meet you all and thanks for having me along.
Cheers
Conrad

Hello Conrad, welcome to the forum. Both Z3 and Z4 are great cars, so you can't really go wrong

Hi Conrad from near Lincoln. I'm a Z4 owner after having a 3. Mine is an everyday use car which I feel the 4 is better suited to. Just my own opinon. Welcome anyway whatever you end up with.:thumbsup:

Hi Conrad welcome from me in South Ayrshire.
Any questions just ask there are numerous members with a wealth of knowledge and experience that are more than happy to pitch in ( myself included :whistle::bag: ) either z the 3 or the 4 both great cars :thumbsup: but at the same time they are very different and have different characters the z3 far more retro and old school where as the z4 a much more modern style of drive thats before you get into colour engines optional extras :rolleyes: much to think about .
Stephen. :)

Its that daily use thing thats pushing me towards towards the 4 Tony My cars live outside and its going to be a daily user so not so much the classic , I drove a barchetta in France for a week a couple of years ago and it felt like a classic and thats what I like about the 3 . Its a nice problem to have . :)
