NZ POM

Welcome to the forum, the car and previous owner were at the ChCh BBQ meet in Feb. Good to see you've followed suit and signed up with this forum. Have the dents been removed from the left side, as that was all that spoiled the look, also does it have an S3 badge on the boot as the prev owner was searching for one.

ACS auto gear shift for E36 ACS E36 strut brace

My 2pence worth on the pom thing, from an old fart. The original term pom was actually spelt POHM and stood for Prisoner of Her/His Majesty but over time as the H was silent it got dropped and forgotten. Nice one on the Chelski comments lol.

Welcome aboard Silvana, enjoy the car. more pics please

As the sig shows, Im a Pom and dont mind the name, been here with my missus and 3 kids since 1994, born and dragged up on a council estate in Reading until i married and decided to get the hell out of there for my kids sake. I consider NZ my home and thankfully so do my kids who are all grown up now. The only thing i miss is football,, the firm i work for are sending me back to the UK in October for 3 weeks for new product training and i'm taking the missus and my youngest son who was 18mths when we came to NZ as we've never been back, just my luck that after all the years of following Reading FC around to places like Bury and Darlington i thought great i can catch a premier league game, then they go and get relegated. Story of my life. In all things sport i follow NZ except for the football, and just love it when i can wind up the rellies in the UK, when England lose to NZ at anything. But the trouble is i still get sh*t from kiwis, so i cant win.

Welcome Softlad Nice to see another VASK member joining Bimmersport.

Met and had quite a chat with Ian Gillan lead singer of Deep Purple, due to the fact that in the early 80's i resprayed his beloved FIAT 131 Mirafiori TC. Cool guy and down to earth, when not on tour he still used to live with his dear old mum. Though he had enough money to buy a castle. Also had tea with Jackie Stewart (F1 World champ) and his mum who was a friend of my mum, i think i was about 9yrs old at the time. Other claim to fame is that i resprayed the Jag that was featured in Morse after it was set on fire at the end of series 3 (if that counts).

Phew thats a relief, does that mean i can go out to play with my freinds, i promise i'll be good and be home before dark. PS thanks for checking Mike.

The CAI or the headers, in any case you pay for what you get, the CAI is a replica of the Gruppe M, and is genuine carbon fibre & kevlar not immitation, the same product is being advertised for 569 pounds sterling in both the UK and HK, so considering exchange rates i think the price is pretty fair. And i'm really pleased with it.

Seems i have been naughty My deerest sincerest apologies to any body or thing that i may have offended, may i wish you all the good fortune the world has to offer and that your sons be hung like a do*key. May the sun go down each and every day knowing that you have a smile of contentment on your face. A deep feeling of remorse has swept over my saddened soul knowing that someone out there no longer loves me. OH the despair and shame of it all. Please pretty please forgive my evil mind and tongue and restore my faith in mankind and accept my apology by removing the DAMN warning As its making me feel like a naughty schoolboy, not that i would feel a naughty schoolboy i'd get arrested for that.

+1 thats the best argument yet for not doing it.

Whats the warn 0% plus 4 blocks at the bottom of my profile? have i been naughty or something!!!!!!!!!!

Quality is the key word i'm looking for, cheers Wayney keep me informed.

LOL just do another couple of stripping jobs in Vegas and you'll be well on the way to affording the real thing
