New BMW Z4 Owner

[Greg Fitzmaurice]

Afternoon all,

Just thought I would join up as I have just purchased a BMW Z4

The car is a 2003 BMW Z4 3.0 SE in Silver which I have managed to get for the bargain price of £2,650 the car does have 117k miles but appears to be very clean and I pick it up on Sunday.

The only issue is it has a tempremental roof but I have seen a thread on here where a local member refurbs them/fixes them for £100 so that will be the first thing I get booked in.

A couple of photos below:




And my company car a DS DS5

I'm sure you will. I've driven @t-tony 3.0 Z4 and I liked it a lot. Maybe something for the future for me

Welcome, I too have recently bought a Z4 without a test run and got it delivered whilst on holiday.
Red wine was to blame.
It's got roof problems amongst others but advise from the experts on here have raised my hopes.
Currently waiting for INPA and other software from Ebay to have a play.
Stupidly dropped the roof manually and now can't get it back up!!!
