I rode a R1150 for work for 3 years mate and clocked 40 odd K a year on it.......Was very good but for me was 'to good' - brilliant and faultless work machine but had no soul
The Z3 is the 1st BMW car I have bought and it was that fab 2.8 - 6 pot motor that hooked me .
She looked at lots of 2 seat soft tops MX's etc - then she drove a Z4, loved the engine but the car didn't have enough character for her so we tried a Z3 and bang! it ticked every box - took me over 6 months to find a good one though......
