Anybody know where I can get a decent illustraton of the BMW Z axle. I have had a quick look underneath my Rover 75 but can't get enough acccess to see all the details.

I have been impressed with it on the 75 and am pondering if it could be addpted to a book style chassis.

Try doing a search on the BMW Z1.

Nice car, and the one used to introduce the Z-Axle

S

... it might give you the idea.

Trident,

A technique I have employed before is to nip down to Kwik Fit and ask for a free brake check while it's on the ramps you can get a good look underneath.

I wanted to check the underside of my old 205GTi after a bit of impromtu "off roading"

Cheers
Nick
