Estoril Blue Z3 / Z3M magnetic door protectors
Hi Guys, I have set of magnetic door protectors in Estoril Blue for Z3's and Z3M's. They dont require any glue or adhesive, simply position them where you want them. I bought them a while ago from USA. £50 plus delivery. You can collect from Northwest if you are close. Best wishes, Tags http://tagst...

Re: ///M Gone
Sure is.
Going to view my next toy. A little tamer and not so rare but good on the emissions and only 2ltr. Z4 2013 28i Msport. Red with cream leather. Almost as quick as the ///M but better suited for exporting to cyprus where it will become a daily car.

///M Gone
My car was bought by a collector and sits in a garage alongside a ferrari, a bentley, a 635CSI pickup, 8 series (not sure of model) and an E36 M3. A sad day, 13 years and 3 months of ownership and 33,000 miles covered by me. Loved every one of them. Some of the old timers on here have shared some of...

Hi Guys,
I wonder how many are still around that attended this run? It is a memorable weekend.
If there is anyone still around, does anyone have the routes? The last day in particular?
Great if you have, I would like to redo the last day.
Thanks,

Re: New Roof Tomorrow
You will see them on the back quarter of each side of the roof. Apparently most have them apart from the very early z3's. They help to take some of the tension out of the roof when you are lowering it (I think). I am sure someone on the forum can confirm.
