well my car went in for a little warranty work and they accidentally gave my hire car to someone else, i fumed and flirted a little with 'julie' and she said "oh well u can have this brand new Z4 05' reg, its done 60 miles so be gentle"

so i thought, hmm Z4 3 litre, 1/2 a tank of fuel and a national speed limit dual carrigeway down the road.

funny how brand new cars have that wonderful burning clutch/engine/exhaust smell when redlining in 3rd doing 115mph (whoops, well i couldn't help running it in)

my digital cam is up the spout otherwise was gonna post a pic of the car (and the smell, lol)

lovely car mind, wow the roof goes down quick, a bit close to the ground for my liking. and thats standard!

My car is going in next Wed to have the lock sorted under warranty. Although I don't really need a replacement car, I'm getting an E60 530D to play about for the day......let's see if that can make a burning smell....LOL :D :D

I see you guys use choice stealers.

I usually get stuck with a nice 318, mmmmm. Oh well.

And I thought I lucked out when I got a 325...they usually only give 316s!

Matt, you lucky sod. Which stealer do you use (as I think in future I may have to start using them ;) )?

It's always nice when they do silly things like that. Worse thing they can say to someone is please be gentle :p ...
