So yesterday I went and got myself a Z3 2.8 Auto. Had been looking/researching since early December. It's a '98, I prefer the styling on the first gen. I arrived at the Z3 after owning two Xjs's and then a 4.0 V8 LPG Range Rover Classic which I'm sad to say came a cropper last summer. My first time owning a non-British Leyland car ha (1st was an old mini).
It was the articles written by Mike Fishwick which intrigued my about the Zed. I had planned to do south of France this summer sleeping in/camping the RR but now will take a different route, to Geneva, over the alps and down to Eze.
Got a lovely message from Gaz upon registering yesterday but couldn't work out how to send a reply (I'm 37 so should know how).
I live in north London and the Zed is now my daily ride into Soho (I work in radio).

Looking forward to getting some help/advice in the near future.

Cheers!

James

Hi James - again :welcome: from Warwickshire.
Do you work on the production or engineering side of radio? Global by any chance?
