Thanks Darren, it's all come together just in time for summer

I'm a bit late to the party on this but that looks brilliant. Clearly lots of hard work and the results speak for themselves. Randomly I have the same 2 cars and colours in my garage, if the S2000 is Royal Blue Pearl? Good taste anyway!

Enjoy in good health :thumb:

 

[shantybeater]

Haha yes, I bet your s2k is shinier than mine though, it's had a hard life (130,000miles)

I need proof of your line up in photo form !

Randomly the other car in my garage has my S2K plate on... But its on my Z4MR, S2K I mistakenly sold many years ago...

Clearly a GT3 goes well with a high revving NA roadster :thumb:

MR you say Tommy? The s54 is a peach so great choice. I never moved to a 4 but dearly loved both my 3's.

Indeed, love the s54! Very nice, LMs?

Here's mine..

Lovely! Imola is my fave colour on the Z4M. CSL's too, looks brilliant.

Yes, I took great joy in refurbishing myself (minus the paint). The Z3M had some silly low offset on the rear so I reverse mounted the faces for more dish

 

[Geo]

Top cars there lads, got to admit I love an Imola M car!

What are the odds of that! Can't be many meteor grey GT3's in the country?! Or RNB s2000's for that matter!

That is spooky

Did someone say Imola Red...........one of 4 Z3 S54 RHD Roadys worldwide

Loved that car......

I wondered if you might pop along! Do you regret selling? A little while back I had a random email from a lawyer selling my old car due to a bereavement of the previous owner (chap who bought it from me).

Quite a tragic tale, I did consider buying it back but he was asking too much money (well over double what I sold it for!)

 

[jonttt]

I said I would never sell it......but then someone with more money than sense wanted to prove a point :grin: .......still a UK record sale price by far for a Z3 (including coupes) but the price was not based on the cars actual value.......

I do wonder where it is now, he put it through an auction around 6 months later and it sold for just under £30k which by itself I think would have made it the most expensive Z3 roady in the UK but was only a fraction of what he paid me......lets just say it was pocket change to him

so yes I regret it but that is why he wanted to prove a point, everything has a price :bandit:

Madness, well I'm glad you made mega money on it, I'm sure it sits easier with you and who knows it may end up back on the market one day for a more attractive price!
