Just a different approach visually? ;-)

Actually really like them a lot - a brave look, but it works for me; but couldn't get on with the ride on 18" runflats with the sport suspension. Presume the SE is a little more forgiving?

Enjoy the new motor; looks to be a good price & spec

People keep banging on about the Z4 getting better looking with time, but I'm sorry I just don't see it.

Enjoy your new purchase

Strangely I do get it. It actually does look better now than it did on it's release.
Good buy at that price

Dildo-shaped, under-engineered POS.

Should have Triumph badges, really.

Don't hold back Nick

When did they start using the new 3.0 engine ? That is supposed to be pretty damned good.
It's just the cheap plastics that spoil it.
