  • This looks Cheap

    Hi Everyone

    I just thought I would say hi and introduce myself.

    After a bit of a hunt and a long time hankering I have eventually managed to get myself a Z3 MC and I am chuffed to bits.

    The car I ended up buying was the car discussed in the Wanted and For Sale section under the title " This looks cheap". As it turns out this car has been owned by at least 3 previous forum members but if you were to read some of the negative comments you could have been under the impression that it was a bit of a "dog" however i can assure you it is certainly not. It was a case of a good car just needing a little bit of tlc and that's my plan.

    I have already had it checked out by Darren Wood, they have a reputation second to none and have confirmed that other than needing a few bits and pieces its all good. I also have a good friend that restores Porsches on the bodywork side of things and its received his blessing so happy days.

    So overall a good story so far and I can's wait to get cracking sorting it out with a suspension refresh on the list first- Watch this space.

    BTW what a great forum.

    Regards

    Good stuff! As often happens, it's a case of actually going and having a look at a car, not necessarily listen to everything you read.

                  I called about this car and it had been sold the day before, so congrats on beating me to it
                  On the plus side I'm soooo happy with the imola red example I picked up shortly afterwards, so thanks for beating me to it (although you did cost me a few grand )
