1952 Ferrari 212, only 5000miles on it

Yes control units do go faulty. Replace all 6 glow plugs and the control unit

https://www.turners.co.nz/Damaged-Vehicles/Damaged-Cars-for-Sale/bmw/x5/26359777 Project one here. Maybe an e39 swap?

Ice Cube always had some good taste https://youtu.be/vvvQwYXPV-s?si=EKAjFhI2i4QwMpcD

Hope you brought it

Getrag 420g from an e36 m3 evo, currently still fitted up to my 328 wagon so any prospective buyers can do any checks they'd like. Gearbox only. $3750

You're thinking of brake pad wear sensors

Don't know if you've seen this but might have something on it that's still good https://www.facebook.com/share/dvmGqt7wek9cWGJE/?mibextid=kL3p88 You could also try Ernie at Hinds Classics near Ashburton but shipping maybe cost prohibitive

Bmw dealer, about $35 odd

Not a wagon but this just popped up on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/share/xLFtbdhe5jiRgni7/?mibextid=kL3p88

I wouldn't stress about that. Nzta actually want vehicle fails, eg if a car comes in and needs wipers for a wof, even if you replace them on the spot, you should enter a fail/recheck instead of a straight pass

Ideally for a sedan and in silver Will also mtech2 one if the price is right

I was quoted $1000 to bring a gearbox in from the West Coast of the US to Christchurch by these fellas, https://gtlogistics.co.nz/ who came recommend by someone else who I'll probably use once I'm ready. You'll also have to factor in customs, duty, gst etc.

Main issue they have is oil consumption

There has been a couple of 420g's lately on trademe and facebook recently. The one on trademe hasn't been relisted in over a month, the facebook one appears to be still available I'll more than likely have mine for sale late this year. S54's are plentiful in the USA for around $3500 - $4000usd for one with about 100k miles on it, they were half that pre covid and I regret one bringing a couple in then.

Weight alone doesn't equate to nimbleness. Watch Chris Harris' review on the m2 and he believes its a very nimble car despite the numbers on paper.

Other way round. Definitely won't need spacers as spacers push it closer to the guards. Will need a guard roll, small tyre size and maybe some camber depending on how low you are

CGA won't cover you for 3 years. Mbi is handy because if something goes wrong you pay your excess and repairs get done, no struggling to find 1500+ for possible repair. Plus you can have several repairs which would stack up. I'm not familiar with the common issues on the G20s. At the end of the day it's each to their own.

Just because it's dealer serviced doesn't mean anything if the owner declines to follow the recommendations. Usually once it's out of warranty, customers don't really seem to care

Rust is probably your biggest thing. There are some crossovers with suspension parts with the likes of the e3/e24 maybe some e28 stuff to. @BM WORLD is probably the man to ask
