  1. ooooh that sounds good! I'll have a look at that one online :huh:
  2. I'm a bit to far away to make it on a school night :unsure: Is there anything in the South West or Wales happening soon? is anyone coming to the Tredegar House show on 15th September?
  3. Hi jony9! Lucky you! what engine and a bit more detail please. Hope to see some photos soon. Fi
  4. Thanks Mickl2008 and BigAl. I spent my Saturday G3'ing and polishing it but it's still a bit camera shy, when it's ready I'll post some pics. I'm getttig a bit attached to the damn thing now :wub:
  5. Hi, I looked for some advice on cleaning my car earlier and I couldn't find anything on here. It may sounds straight forward but to me it wasn't! I needed to clean years of wash 'n wax, oxidation and tree grime off the car I've just bought off eBay. I wasn't sure if G3 was too harsh and there were literally hundreds of products in the motor factors where one of the guys suggested machine polishing it so I looked on line and got even more confused.... in the end I did what my ex-husband used to do, I G3'd it as best I could then polished it and polished it again. I don't have the patience for the clay bar and the paint isn't really good enough for that although I suspect if I put more elbow grease into the G3 the base paint is pretty good. A detailing and polishing section would be really useful :)
  6. Ahhhh,is that why roundabouts suddenly seem a lot wider.,...?
  7. ....I agree on the 2.8 - awesome machine but I have to slow down :(
  8. Thanks Daz! I'm really taking to the smoother drive of the straight 6 which is completely different to the daily drive - SEAT ibiza TDi - I think the Z3 might even slow me down a bit......"might" lol. Thanks all for your encouragement.
  9. Hi G4VHD It's the 2.0 Straight Six - black with red leather. I'm quite chuffed with it! Off to search for a tonneau cover in the Z3 forum. Fi :)
  10. Hello Everyone, Well look who just accidentally bought a Z3 on evilBay...it's black with red leather so that helped ease the pain of the impulse buy. I'd be grateful if you could make me feel better and say that's a nice enough spec! Looking forward to picking your brains and maybe seeing a few of you at events. Bye!
  11. Hello Everyone :) Bought a Z3 on a whim on eBay...is there a quick way to check the service history?. I've been listening to a recorded message on the phone for 7 minutes (and counting)....huff. The only part I need to source for the car is a tonneau cover in black - they're £75 on eBay, any ideas where I can find an aftermarket one a bit cheaper? Thanks :)
