Hi everyone. I've got a 1999 Z3M roadster which I bought in Jan 2016. It's my fun car but I've been guilty of not using it enough (and not maintaining it in top nick). It had 76K on the clock when I bought it and its now just over 80K but I've now decided damn the mileage I need to use it a bit more and enjoy it. I'm well past retirement age and generally get other people to fix it but I now have more time and so I'm going to get my hands dirty and only take it to the pros' when I get stuck (probably tomorrow).I'm going to need some assistance (the workshop manuals are rubbish) so that's why I'm here, but looking at your social side this also looks good fun so no doubt I'll take advantage of this. Looking forward to it all,
Joe
