BMW Z3 Introduction

Most, if not all; cars I have owned in the past!

Some of the following are not the actual pictures of my previous cars, but as close as one can get to the model, colour and condition:

Ford Capri GT, the engine purred, this one is a very close resemblance of the one I owned in the early 80s, I used this to commute from Birmingham to London and back, it performed very well.

At the time, Fords were a popular make in the UK and I did like the Cortina, mine was a little more worn and shabby-sheak, it had the wooden trim interior and was also a very comfortable ride; like most MK IIIs. I bought this locally at the time, (Halesowen) for around the £350 mark, it was a good price for someone at my age and without a car. 86K was considered high milage then. As a saying went, "Ford engines get better with age and more mileage. " The jury is still out on that one, concerning today's markets (2024)

Note: One recommends reading the diary first and then linking to workshop notes to maintain the continuity of the theme...
