Re: Car cover

I have a classic additions ultimate cover.
I bought it 2nd hand for £50. £200 new.
It had been on an Audi A3 and fits my coupe really well.
The car is carbon black. I’ve never had a black car, lots of marks when I take off the cover.

Re: Solar trickle charger

I’ve recently bought a z4 coupe and rented a parking place in ground floor under flat parking.
There’s no power but I’ve bought a 20w solar panel, a charge controller and fixed it outside and it is working brilliantly.
It’s a smaller version of the one I use on my VW California.

Re: New to the parish....

Have a look on eBay. There's what looks like an excellent 2.2 sport in black.
76k. 02reg. 2 former owners, very good mot history and looks a bargain at £3375.
There might even be room to manoeuvre.
Certainly looks a very good starting point.
Good luck.

Re: Anyone got an automatic Z3?

I have a 3L auto and have recently sold a 2.8 manual. Both engines are very flexible and both cars a real pleasure to drive. The 3l engine is terrific and combines with the auto box beautifully. Out of the two cars I'd choose this car. I'm getting on a bit so the cruising ability suits me whereas 20...

Re: French toad trip

Sounds a brilliant trip. I took my Z3 3.0 sport to Portugal in mid December. Couldn't have been more different. Weather freezing until about Badajoz when I could get the roof down. Doing a trip through France in 8 days time to Il de Re and then, La Rioja and down to Portugal but that's in the VW Cal...

Re: Recent purchase and big trip-help

Would eurocarparts be a good place to buy the replacement parts. (I've not owned one of these before) .
This is another question in itself.
What would be a good set of tools, spanners to undertake this type of job?

Recent purchase and big trip-help

Last week I bought my Z3 3L auto. 3 days ago I set out from Portsmouth to Caen and then a 1300 mile drive through France and Spain to the Algarve. I'm pleased with the car, it hasn't missed a beat and according to the onboard computer has returned 32.8 mpg even when I've been constantly cruising at ...

Wind deflector

New to the Z3.
Did this item come as standard to the car?
Are they essential when the weather isn't brilliant, cutting out draughts and keeping the cabin reasonably comfortable.
