Newbie!

Post by Z3 M LEGEND »

Just thought id say a quick hello now that ive joined, my names Greg im 23 and from cornwall, i picked up this beautiful estoril blue Z3 M last april as my dad and his friend bought it for a very very good price and was going to sell it as a profit, that was until i laid my eyes on it (always been a big fan of Z3 M's) and bought it for the same price they paid for it, only had 20k on the clock and drove beautifully couldn't resist owning such a unique vehicle, neighbors think im mad because im out polishing it whenever the weathers good :lol: Car lives to its full expectations and i absolutely adore it, only modifications are: simota induction kit, front strut brace, hard top roof, chrome roll bars and i also have the original alloys in shadow chrome.

hi badaman gee, the alloy wheels are NAD 1's, insurance actually for my age is very good i pay around £690, that was another big selling point for me aswell as it being a fantastic car in the 1st place, compare it to a honda civic type R which would cost me about £1100 a year to insure :shock: seeming as the M is such a rare beast nowadays and always was to be honest means that there isnt many in the accident books, seems to be what there going by nowadays.
