Wasn't expecting it. Was a nice surprise when I found out.
Tried about 5 different shops trying to get hold of a copy!

Nahhh it's sat just on the rim, perfecto
It's a work in progress anyway, parts of the set up will be getting changed because my cars the development car. Need to fit different bags on the front, it doesn't raise high enough so I still can't go over speedbumps infact it's lower on the front maxed out than it was before.
But hell it drives like a new car! Completely changed from that shitty original set up.

i'd troll the guys at work and make them think i'd turned my Z4 into an offroader
I concur regarding original suspension. It's far too firm and isn't set up for general cruising, which is what I believe the motoring journalists picked up on when it was first released.

E85 Keiran?
They're great cars, but the suspension is literally the worst thing about it, causing the ride to be very firm, which takes a little of the enjoyment away from the drive.
Really want a Z4M, but i'm not sure I could justify a 2nd 2 seater

Yeah Kieran don't judge the car for it's lack of ride quality it's easily improved.
Ben don't justify it, do it! We only get one chance before women fuck it up and make us have kids... And your closer to that ball n chain than me

Mate you don't know just how close I am to that
Love my car though, about as much as I hate it the engine is a peach and i'd love to supercharge it if i had the cash.
