What a fantastic day! Just arrived home, and no ill effects from the rear spring doing whatever the hell it did!

470mile round trip today - a serious baptism for the Z4, and what a car! Utterly awesome.

Well done Jim, you deserved the round of applause after the final leg through the Elan Valley. ^:)^ Simply stunning road, best I've driven for many a year!
