BMW Z4 2.5iS

Hello everybody,

Let me introduce myself first.

I'm living in the South of the Netherlands, very close to Spa-Francorchamps and the Nürburgring.

When I had the chance of buying my father's Z4 I did not have to think that over for long.

With only 70.000km milage, and complete history I surely knew what I bought.

Detailing is my hobby, although the term "detailer" doesn't ring many bells here in the Netherlands.

Anyway, as you can see on the pictures I already performed some mods.

This is how I got the car, next to my own old Bimmer:

At our local castle:

And how it currently looks:

Note: The iS edition is something invented by the dutch importer, which included the most popular options like leather upholstery, heated seats etc.

Yeah looks real good. Kinda funny about your 'Local Castle'. Gotta love Europe! I think we might have a couple castles out here somehere up in the hudson valley, if that counts for anything, but they might be a few hundred years newer.

Well, Elsloo is known to be the oldest farmer town in the Netherlands, and the castle itself dates back to at least 1100 AC.

Here's part of the citycenter which is newer then the casle ofcourse:

So unless the Indians did build some castles, this one is indeed older...

BTW As English is not my native language I apologize for any spelling errors etc.
