seller gave me a ring this morning and we had a great chat, he is the second owner and havent driven it much since bringing it back from the UK thats why its for sale. i would love to view it this weekend but he is away so it will have to be the following weekend as for the wife problem its a work in process, she has a work car and i said she can take my car whenever she wants and i will just take the GT3 to work 
Anyone want to buy a NZ new 2014 Bmw Z4 m-sport with about 2000km, if i can get rid of her car i would have a higher chance of getting it oh one last thing, with a UK car how worry should i be with rust? sounds like the car spent about 4 years there

Consider his co-driver when you make misguided statements like that! The Turbo is safe.
I'm liking the way you think!

Spot on. Your mechanic should be able to very quickly ascertain any long term damage from salted roads. Look for exhaust hardware, tandem oil pump, main oil line and brake lines as a start.

Agreed, is a great idea. Using something like Telegram core services and developing using their open API so it has a branded/specific front end wouldn't be too hard. I should have learned to code at some point...
Telegram would actually work out of the box, and provides the ability to create group conversations on a secure, private network at no cost, that are accessible via all devices inc your laptop/desktop.

From the latest EVO magazine:
The Cayman GT4 will officially debut February 5th.
An all new Boxster Spyder is on the way. Not as hardcore as the GT4, it will be in the spirit of the its lightweight predecessor.
8 more days. Place your bets now.

Just thinking off the top of my head...The may be an opportunity to manage the user group and trigger messaging from a central place, i.e. the RSG website. E.g. Make a new thread or add a post to an existing thread and have that message broadcast to all users of telegraph - not dissimilar to Facebook notifications. Of course this assumes the RSG website is open source and there are resources to modify the source code

Drifting
I'll be deducting that little siesta from the bill.
SC engine certified as a pretty healthy example with leak down and compressions checked.
Also some Evidence that the engine has been apart.
All good.

I've had a quick look. The API provides for sending messages and manipulating contacts, etc. For RSG to have its own branding it would mean writing a client for each platform - iphone, android, web, desktop. Arguably impractical? Just thinking off the top of my head...The may be an opportunity to manage the user group and trigger messaging from a central place, i.e. the RSG website. E.g.

Before we start looking at this, would people be interested? To get an idea of what we're talking about, download Telegram for your smart phone and register (should only take 1 minute). It should populate your contacts with anyone else who has it installed based on the existing contacts on your phone (assuming you have their phone number).

Nice. Am sure that feels like a bonus after buying the rapid pace in which you picked up the car (as I'm assuming you bought it on the spot). What year is it Dave?
