Z3 3.0 newbie

[rob_v6]

Ok so I have just posted in the newbie section but thought I would share some pictures of the Z and previous couple of cars. Pictures sometimes tell a better story

So the z3 is a 3.0 sport model with red and black interior. It's a 2003 model so probably one of the last produced.

The z4 coupe I had for a couple of years but then decided to sell it one day to a local garage in Northwich. I spent some time finding one in Phoenix yellow.

Prior to the z4 I had a break from sporty cars and just had a golf.

Prior to that I owned a Clio v6 for about 4.5 years. I used this as a daily driver as it was just to cool not too. I spent many meets up in the lakes etc and gained a lot of good friends from the owners club. My only regret now is selling it back in 2009 as they have rocketed in value. I believe the car is now across in Switzerland somewhere.

Appologises for the picture overload but pictures are sometimes better than words. Also had a bit of a spell of having a Pulsar GTIR, couple of old vw golfs.

Hi from !! Seems I may have missed your intro or maybe I'm babbling again and repeating myself!! Anyhow I love pics cuz it's winter here and all I see in snow and freezing temps!! JIM

Never too many pictures mate. That's a gorgeous Z3, love it. Very nearly bought a Z4 roadie in Pheonix Yellow, like that colour.

Your photos are great
Keep the coming

The Z3 looks great, not many 03 ones about and originates from Scotland. That Coupe is stunning, one of the best colours in my opinion.

That's a cracking line up of cars, true petrolhead appreciates all types.

Yeah the Phoenix Yellow is so much better in the flesh...its a love or hate colour but personally I didn't want something that just blended into the background.

Unfortunately the only one I have in the line up is the z3 as the others were sold over the last few years. I did toy with the idea of a Z3M or Z4M coupe before getting the Z3 but to be honest the Z3 ticks the boxes for now at a fraction of the cost.

A great line up of cars all very nice. The new z3 is stunning a nice find but have to say the z4 coupe is equally as eye catching , personally love Phoenix Yellow nothing wrong with eyecatching and different in my book

That's a lovely Z3, not that I'm biased in any way. #blacknevergetsold #neitherdothreelitres

Ah yes I vaguely remember seeing your z3 listed down London way whilst I was looking but it was a little too far for me to travel.

Great looking car Rob, Blue 3.0i are pretty good as well.

Hey Brian, yes my first choice would have been Estoril Blue in the 3.0 but these seem few and far between. The black with the red and black interior is very nice too. Would be interesting to see what a red hood would look like with the combo

 

[Grumps]

And auto Brian??

Superb! @Lexybhoy has a black car with red roof. It looks mint.

Estoril blue Z3 are rare as was special order I think, it was an M colour back then but now it is an MSport colour as well.
