I'm afraid someone else will have to arrange this meet as I'm not the best at the moment. I have my good times and I have my bad ones as well and I've slipped back into a bad time. BTW. The BMWCC have changed the day of their meet to Waitangi day, so if we are going to have a meet, then Anniversary Day would be better. 1Rotty, are you back in NZ yet?

Thanks for all the kind posts. As far as a meet goes, I would prefer Waitangi Day as I have a cruise to go on with the BMW Car Club on Anniversary day. So, where and what? Put up some ideas and we'll get things rolling.

Hi guys, I'm back. It's been a few months since I've been on the forum, at 66 years of age I'm starting to show my age, but I have been rather ill and ended up in Middlemore for a while. Then we moved out of our house so that it can be redecorated and sold, and there was quite a gap between leaving the house in early Nov till we moved into our current place late last year, so I was without an internet connection for a long time. Anyway, everythings sorted now and I will be back on the forum on a regular basis in future. Seems like we have quite a few new members? Must organise a get together so that get to know each other.

Probably got a dodgy front wheel

As per my thread, She will be all over the North Island. I want to live near a good bar. A nice quiet homely sort of place, not a booze barn. Thanks for all the info guys.

My partner has to move to Hamilton as she has been made Regional Manager of the North Island area south of the Bombays. Now neither of us know Hamilton at all, and, as we will have to rent a house there, I am keen to know which suburbs to avoid and at the same time, what are the better suburbs. We are looking to rent a 3 bedroom single story house with a double garage and are prepared to pay up to $400.00 per week. What can I expect for that sort of money in a reasonable area?

Why don't you buy mine then. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=505316316

The car will need to be re=complied. Once a vehicle has been unregistered for 12 months it must be recomplied. Just take it to your local VTNZ, they will do it for you. Cost $600/700. plus registration.

Which motor does it have? Vanos or not. It makes a difference. Auto or manual, and I don't believe it's a motorsport. With a blown head gasket, auto and non vanos,around $4-4,500.00

It certianly is Glenn.

Yes, the car is in Japan, or will be for about a week, then it's on it's way home. Should have it ready to sell in about 5-6 weeks. This pic is the other side of the dash as someone requested.

I am importing a 1963 MkII 3.8 Jaguar which has been rebuilt by Beachams of Hastings. The car would have cost in excess of $100,000 when first purchased from Beachams, but I'm asking $35,000 firm. Beacham Jags are completely rebuilt from the ground up and are far better than a new one. This car has Power steering and Air conditioning. If anyone, or any associates are interested, then PM me please.
