z32bolt Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I see hundreds of them, on a daily basis it's not uncommon to run out of fingers. I only ever bother to report sightings of enthusiast looking owned cars like the one in the que on Monday for the channel tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I've spotted only a few fellow members on the forum. I've given up waving, flashing or anything of this kind. I just don't see that many Zeds, if I do it's the ones that are not enthusiasts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z32bolt Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Literally everywhere. There seems to me loads in Dorset and hants, but I see them on the motorway and literally anywhere. If I remember il count how many I see in the way home tomorrow. Bear in mind I do a fair few miles, about a thousdand a week on average all over the place. Admittedly I can't remember seeing any since I arrived in Europe on Monday but that's nothing off really. Seen two ferraris California's a lambo mercelago and a tesla today.

z32bolt Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Anyone else seen an I8 (that new BMW) yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_2424 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Anyone else seen an I8 (that new BMW) yet? Yes, saw one today and it baffled me for about 5 minutes what it was as I was stating at it in traffic, then we moved and I could see the BMW badge and it clicked. Very futuristic looking on the road next to some fiestas and a van! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know what a 350Z / 370Z looks like...!!! If you see them everywhere, and I live in London and see very few and I drive around Town most days and probably see a few thousand cars a day. Maybe I'm not observant enough or your confusing the Zed shape with something else...Just saying.. :scare: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get close enough with the stupid BMW drivers floating in lanes they shouldn't be in when there's no cars in either the first or second lanes but hey ho.

Wasso Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 So what is this new Beemer called then? Electric/Hybrid/combustion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z32bolt Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Yes I definatly know what they look like lol, I thought about buying one at one stage but decided against it. Not to mention the ones I encounter through meets with the zclub etc. I'm guessing your just not as observant as myself, a lot of them are silver it seems. Maybe there just arnt many in London for some reason it is a seperate country within the uk after all, it's a weird place. As I say il try to remember to count on the way home tomorrow, it's a 3.5 hour drive on the uk side so should be plenty of oppertunity to see some. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z32bolt Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I must admitt I saw one, just one, on the a12 I believe it was, grey/silver colour. TBF though it was pitch black as I drove home in the middle if the night as I caught an earlier ferry so not much of an experiment. I didnt really see many cars lol, I was on my own on the m3 for a good while. I will keep my eyes peeled, I'm off work for the next 4 days though!

Well I saw ONE this WEEK, and that is owned by the manger of my local Tesco and is always parked in the garage when I go for a fill up, and I did about 380 miles around London this week.
