Nice choice Rob, don't you find it a bit 'snug' though?

Not that I've noticed, occasionally find myself stroking my knees whilst steering but other than that I was surprised. Found the coupe felt bigger than the pram top too

Check my build thread on here. I've got the zhp gear knob. It's a shorter weighted one. Makes gear changes much nicer

Where did you get it from? Expensive? I've seen a fair few people on the z4forum racing about Sopers for mail order, but they're only 5 minutes up the road from me!

Yes! Much better looking! Then, I hate just about any soft top...

Besides the colour I'm well jealous. Red interior looks great as well.

VED isn't cheap, no. Easier to take (just) when you think it's less than £20/month more

Black wouldn't have been my first choice, I'd much prefer a silver grey or imola red one. But they hold their value a lot more, and for what I gave for the black one I couldn't justify (nor afford) the extra!
