  • New, very happy, Imola owners!

    Morning all,

    Long time lurker and intermittent poster here, but me and my partner finally took the plunge this week and bought a '99 Imola Red Z3MC. It has been an ambition for her to own one since they were launched, so as you can imagine she is over the moon, as am I having owned a number of performance BMWs in the past.

    Obviously we are very early in to the ownership experience but all good so far, went out for a nice drive to a country pub last night and had the first instance of interested onlookers pouring all over it when parked, which was very nice!

    It's an honest car that has enough bits and bobs for us to improve upon in the years to come, which of course is part of the fun!

    I'm going to attempt to post some pictures but need to get photobucket sorted first...


    Cheers,

              Looks like a nice original condition car, had a M roadster in that colour which I liked a lot (not as much as silver though!!!).

              Enjoy.

                      Fellow imola owner.

                      What is this meet tomorrow (near Woking I assume) I am in the process of replacing the o rings on my vanos so won't be able to bring it but could bring my AMG.

                        Hi Rags,

                        It's at the Black Swan in Ockham near Leatherhead, starts at 8 but we aren't going to get there until 10, although woken up to rain this morning so will only go if that clears...

                        Cheers

                            I have a hangover so no chance.

                            When my MC is running again (next weekend) then I will attend the next one.

                            Enjoy.

                              Haha, I did wonder considering the time you posted!!! It was a good meet, I'll stick some photos up later. We can't do June but will do July definitely..

                              Cheers
