Very nice. Always like the Red on black. Hopefully a bit more reliable than a TVR! Have fun!

Thanks very much Black X5, i was drawn to the colour combo, but understand it wont be everyones cup of tea, i had the Cerbera for just over six years & i have always hankered after a Z4M & yes i hope it will be more reliable than the TVR! but some say the Z4 is like a german TVR so i will keep my fingers crossed!  :)

Well, once he is banned form here that is all he will have left  :))

Nice colour combo - just need to do the satnav retrofit now (you can find my thread on how-to on the z4-forum). ::)

Very nice.  Although Mrs X5Sport has given me a life ban from owning one.......not that at 6' 4" I can get the seat back far enough anyway..... :cry1:

We have a similar colour combo on the E46 'vert' with Graphite/Dark Red.  It works very well, although this piccie makes the red look too 'pink'.

Thanks very much PVR & Richard, i am only 5ft 8in so i am the other way i struggle to reach the pedals & end up looking like a 12 year old driving!!

Very nice 3 series Richard & colour combo, i just need to get over to the Z4 forum now so PVR cant slate me over there!!  :)

aright richard, we like yours too  :))

seems like you run a bmw/mini showroom?  :P

very nice collection btw, i like that facelift 3 series vert. a 325 vert was in my radar at one point.. that master plan had me working outside london, travelling by car, which wasn't to be, so i went the other way and settled on the E53.

It's 'hers'.  No way I would have had that colour combo.  As with Lee's Z4, it does seem to work.....and better on the Z4.  Saw a white one in the Dealers yesterday, but the look I got from Mrs X5Sport told me to stay away (from the car before anyone suggests the obvious alternative  :)) ).

nice!! did you buy it from a z4-forum member?

I'm also on both forums. I recently bought an E89 35i. though about a Z4M, but liked the softer nature of the E89.
