Hi
Intro: Lost count on number of motors had over years so home mechanic is the norm. Hate IT as it doesn't need a spanner! First Z3 and even though only 1.9 I've been pleasantly surprised. So much better than an MGF/TF. Mine was cheap so expected odds and sods need doing and sure enough I have what appears is the usual list. Couldn't help myself though being a Bond fan....had to have a GoldenEye lookalike. Where BMWQ failed to show the Missiles.....I'm working on it . Idiot some of you might say, but we need a sense of humour these days. Just trying to sort out a few niggles but hopefully will do a YOUTUBE about why it won't pass an MOT with missiles
From tech side of things....been buying lots of bits off Fleabay and it appears there is a trend now for overseas sellers to intercept, obviously sourcing elsewhere. One even had a UK website but not based here. So called ORIGINAL parts are being mixed with OEM etc. Enough I hear you say for now...Cheers all.

Welcome to the forum from Surrey, plenty of good advice on here (some dubious senses of humour too!)

There are plenty of breakers (me included) and hoarders on here too, so fire away with what ever parts you are looking for, someone will have it/them.
