Wifies 2012 z4 2.0 Turbo

[MoelyCrio]

That Z4 looks like it has 4wd mud tyres on it!

A Z4 without a straight six is wrong to me - how is the 2.0?

TT? Good joke

Sorry, being mischievous. Love R8s and would give left arm to own one!

I wouldn't swap body parts for an Audi as depreciation can be a wonderful thing:

Bit of a girl's car though.

That's been on sale a while and it may have dropped in price.

It would probably be worth their while getting it professionally unwrapped.

I wonder if that vinyl is hiding anything nasty?

Never ever buy anything from that garage.

Finally got the chance for a bit of a spruce-up today.

Looking pukka this afternoon:

That's a great looking car I love the interior contrast with the black.
The e36 is ageing very well don't you think?

Aye the way she drives it, that might not be a bad idea. Cant remember what they are. Potenzas? Whatever was fitted new from the factory.

Yeah, though BMW are moving that way now with all their cars. Even a 'step up' to the next engine up would have been the SDrive28i which is a 2.0 Turbo anyway. So then you're into the realms of the Sdrive35i, which is £10,000 more than hers. In fact its £13,000 more expensive as she got a deal with a free upgrade from SE to M Sport (which is the spec she'd have been looking anyway)

Its quick enough but no, it doesnt have the thrum of a straight six that say her previous z4 3.0Si coupe or even her Scooby had. Having said that, they've done quite a good job of giving it a sporty revvy 4 cylinder feel - you wouldnt know it is turbocharged - and it seems to have much more personality than say a 2.0i in a 3 series.

Fuel consumption isnt stunning. Her 3.0Si did 27.4 consistently, whereas the 2.0i Turbo is only averaging 31.7, but then she genuinely does drive it on all the time, rather than it just being something for her to look pretty in.

Pic of it yesterday after a day cleaning it, with my sons Civic 1.8 in the background and my GT TDI 150 in the garage.
