Z4 Coupe
Hi, Ive had the car now about 3 months and just thought i'd post up here a few pics from when i purchased and the progress up to now.
Here's a few from when I first purchased![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

First thing on the agenda was the cambelt/aux service which was over due, So got that booked in straight the way with BTM. Fred showed me the idle rollers/belt etc and basically said that in best part of a 1000 miles the car would have gone pop!
After washing the car a few times i began to notice the paint work wasnt in a particauly good condition. Few shots from my iPhone:

I had a hunt around the detailing section and spotted JimWD's work and sent him an email, A week later the car looked a MILLION times better!

Travelling back from White Details i began to here a louder exhaust tone than usual, about 5 miles down the road I put my foot down and bang, The car now sounded like a WW1 bomber, i pulled over to find my standard exhaust had decided to split completly at the weld

Obviously there was only one way to move forward in this situation and it wasnt going to be weld back together!!.. Que..the.. YOZZA:evil:

Another job well done by BTM![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Also got my private plate put on accompanied by a Si tow ring.

Thats it for now, Eventually i'll look in to dropping the ride height but for now im happy.. Oh and maybe unleash the Yozza with a De-cat:evil:
