Well Nick - what are we supposed to say? This is a BMW forum after all :shock: How does "mmmmm - not bad" grab you? Hope you really enjoy it and your new found 'life' It should make a good contrast (in the background) against Ron's banana :twisted: How about " well at least it's Germ...

Finally got out with the roof down today. What can I say, apart from WOW. All thoughts of possible ims failure gone from my head and just enjoyed the awesome drive :D Blistering performance with an exhaust note that sounds amazing :D All the thoughts and doubts about letting the VX go now long gone ...

That wont even be the price they offer you. When you get there there go over the car with a fine tooth combe looking for any little thing then offer you a lower amount for it, which people normally accept as they need the cash

Hang_em_high

I think it was more than fair,in fact I would say it was a bargain

Hang_em_high

Every Zed I have seen so far with 19" wheels looks wrong. Yours is the first that looks right. Car looks awesome and I love those wheels, they really suit it. Spoiler looks good to

You'll like that big horrible mesh thing on a cold winters day with the roof down and the heater on full blast

Yes i was meaning to get a good shot of the XKR but never got back to it. I agree it is an awesome car for the money. A friend of mine has one which I got to have a go in. Sold it now and bought the new XJ !!!! Another favourite of mine and with a lovely back end has to be the 348 and will certainly...

Hi and welcome to the forum,and congrats on your getting your first Zed. Take a look at the guide to posting pics. You'll need a pic host like photo bucket then we'll be able to see your new Zed

Very interested in the rear arches. when you say wide, do you mean they are off the 2.8 zed??

Gonna have to have wheels that will fill the arches now they are wide.

Hang_em_high

If anyone one is still looking for either of these items I have both available still. Was waiting for the spring to put them ebay but if anyone wants to offer a fair price for them I would be more than happy to sell them now.

Waiting with great interest to see the top secret thing from the USA. When will you be unveiling it to the forum

I used an airgun when I did mine. If you havent got one do them up as tight as you can,refit them then take the car to your local friendly garage and get them to put an airgun on them.
I found the bigger problem was getting them undone, and it would have been a pig without the airgun.

LED's do fail from time to time. When I bought the VX the alarm LED wasnt working.
Got a new super bright LED from Maplin for 50p soldered it on and it now works a treat

Hang_em_high

6 months ago I would have said dont be silly you cant buy 3.0L Zeds for that money, but now it's gone mad, people are giving cars away to shift them. I noticed there were some other bargain priced 3.0L's on there as well as the one you are looking at.
Go for it, thats alot of car for the money.

Just took a look at the site and was really impressed until I found no reviews on the VX220

Still no matter I have searched the internet and never found a bad one yet

Hang_em_high

Whether you agree with it or not, this is not spam. It *is* targeted advertising for a website, but at least it is pertinent to our forum and is talking about Z4's. Whilst it doesn't particularly interest me, I don't mind people posting the odd thing like this, especially as it has clearly been wri...

Hang_em_high

You can always tell if a car is as genuine by the interior, and looking at the only interior pic there is of the clocks I reckon it will be genuine. The clocks still look really fresh and I reckon the rest of it will be the same.
A very nice little car if someone is loking for a low mileage 1.9 zed.

Hang_em_high

Agree with Mouldy. Got a HTC Wildfire a couple of months ago. Brilliant phone with all the apps I'll ever need. In fact, HTC won the phone of the year award over the I Phone

Hang_em_high

I have a set in the workshop that came off my Zed when I replaced them for the black ones. How does £10 + £5 postage sound. PM me if you want them.

Cheers, Nick

mmm nice, an induction kit is something I wanted to fit to the VX. Would this be ok for it

My Zed could be described as a sexy mature woman who knows how to please, where as the VX is like having an affair with a well horny up for it teenager who's keen and eager to try anything once For that analogy you've either been watching too much Jeremy Clarkson or had a good life.

Ragtop are you sure?

You look like you have the sports exhaust on the VX. Never tried it myself, what's it like? Loud?

Yes it has the dealer fitted Janspeed, sounds lovely,and not to noisy at high speeds.
