hi guys,

just picked up a 2005 ZHP Coupe, black/black. it's got high KMs but was a 1-owner car, fairly well looked after, engine and gearbox are lovely, inside is clean. has a few little issues that i will likely post about.

i've been an audi guy for years, and this is my first foray into the BMW world. i've wanted a ZHP sedan for quite a while (a touring would be ideal), but this coupe popped up and the price was right.

looking forward to learning more from everyone about these rare and unique machines!

Wow, I wasn't expecting that high. You officially have the highest mileage ZHP on the forum I think! They're beautiful machines. I redline mine every day. Parts aren't that expensive, you just have to keep up with the maintenance or else it starts to pile up. I DIY all maintenance on mine - feel free to PM me if you run into anything.

I'm curious how much such a high mileage is worth in Canada (I imported mine from Pennsylvania). Mind PM'ing me the details ?

[slater]

PM'd. :)

Welcome! Glad to see that ZHP's can live long lives.

[Lanister]

Ain't nothing wrong with that, Peter :)

I love Canada and will likely move back eventually. Tim Horton's alone is worth it ;)

[slater]

agreed, canada is great - i love it here! will likely end up elsewhere in canada (BC most likely), but it is a very nice place to live and raise a family.

peter

[Lanister]

Yeah, I am from BC myself. My family is in Vancouver. It is a very expensive place to live but you do get what you pay for. And totally agreed about it being a great place to raise a family. It's beautiful, safe and clean; great schools and very diverse culture.

Hey guys.

Just bought my first zhp, also from Ontario, Toronto. Car
is in a very bad condition, the previous owner didn't take any sort of care of it. So far I'm already 2k in repairs.
