Hi, just bought my 1st Z3 - first BMW for me and first convertible. 1998, 1.9 Red, she arrives on Sat. Been standing for a while, needs a good Polish and a bit of tlc but Winter and dark nights ahead!

I'm from sunny Anglesey so lots of lovely views to admire next Spring/Summer.
Will post pics when she arrives but like I say, lots to do!
Need to read up about pros/cons of use/lay up over Winter as regards battery care etc. Sounds a bit of a mind field!

[Stevo7682]

Is your zed going to be outside or garaged

 

[Rambling]

I have a large agricultural shed where it will be stored, just not sure if I should keep it 'road ready' but covered with the odd tick over or drip charge the battery. I know the battery issue is complex! Lots of reading to do

Welcome

Welcome from Ireland!

Welcome from Canada! Disconnect the ground cable on the battery and put a low amp charger on to keep the battery up in power. That way it's a simple operation to start it up and go, shouldn't take more than a few minutes tops! HTH. JIM

Welcome @Rambling !
The Zed is great for a roadster and it will reward you plenty.
Enjoy the car and the M44 massive brotherhood!
