Hello everyone!

My name is Marko and as the title says I'm not your usual member.
First of all I'm from Serbia which means that most likely we will never get the chance to meet in person on any of your meets. Even if I get to US, it will sadly not be with my car.

Second, even more sadly, I'm not a ZHP owner. The reason for that is that as you know ZHP was not available in Europe and also annual registration taxes here are stupidly high for any car above 2000ccm (it's considered luxury...), but for 2500ccm are kind of acceptable. For that reason I've got myself 325CiA M-package II, black on black and I'm very happy with it.

She's with me from 2010 and for almost 40.000km I've never had any major problem.
Most of preventative maintenance parts have been replaced/changed such as trans fluid/filter, expansion tank and all cooling hoses and pipes, water pump, thermostats and rollers, CCV and all the hoses, viscous fan delete done, struts...
I'm trying to keep up with preventative maintenance as much as possible which leaves not much room for styling.
The car is pretty much stock with BBS CH 8,5x18 et35 on all 4 corners. Paint is ready to be detailed, but I'm waiting to paint boot and rear lip (there was some ugly, in my opinion, Rieger spoiler which I've removed).

I'm probably not selling her for a few more years, even with 2 kids and she being our only car we managed to go to vacations/trips with no major issues in regards to space. I wanted to get touring in M-package II, but fiancee at the time, now wifey, insisted on coupe, which in fact turned up nicely :roundel

That would be all for now, if you want some more info do not hesitate to ask :talktome

And now few older, crappy pictures.

Hello there unusual member from Serbia! Good continuation with the car. It looks uber clean and those folding mirrors are the sheet!

(I work with a couple or three Serbs, all great friends. I have had my share of "Chevaptchichis" and strong homemade pear brandy).

Welcome. Who was it that bought a car and shipped it that way a few months back? Seems like Macedonia, Georgia, or somewhere (can't recall)

Checaptchichi are great, aren't they? And you need to ask your friends to get you quince brandy, that one's the best.
