Thats lovely. I feel like the price is about right for a non-turbo B10? Its basically just a flashy auto 535i with some engine mods after all, so the market would be quite niche

After who knows how many years, it's finally $1 reverse

Someone is going to buy that and press it into service and find out why low km cars that have been sitting around for decades arent a good idea. The tires alone have a date code of 5206 on them, which makes them almost 20 years old. That should be illegal to wof/sell. -

Ah yes, Michael Grant Motors... i thought it was that car too 🤣 Looks like its gone from TM, so maybe they finally gave up? -
that whole interior is lush AF, so much better than black. Would hoon.

If the tank is real rusty, the best idea is to get it cleaned out and coated. I believe radiator shops can do this, pay to have a ring around. Have a look into the tank and see how bad it is, if its not that bad you might get away with something like Evaporust.

Doesnt look like a lot of wet oil there to make a puddle. Have you looked under it and checked its not something like the oil pan gaskets?

Sure, they would waste most of the list, but are they really "drivers cars" when it's electronic gizmos doing all the work? Give me an analogue car anyday.

Yeah always check which warehouse it's shipped from. If you get everything from the same warehouse it shouldn't be too bad (although post COVID shipping has been more expensive anyway)

Carjam says Auto, would need a cert

if it plugs in, it pays reduced RUC. If it doesnt plug in and is a normal hybrid, only pay fuel tax.

Who hasn't had a good scandal tbh. If you were worried about the ethics of your car, you wouldn't have a car.

330D... (expanded - needing a car for longish commute)

If you can, try to find one that has as few gimmicks as possible. Active steering, active headlights and dynamic drive are the three i would try to avoid if possible, due to unreliability. Otherwise it should be a pretty solid, albeit big, car. -
Dont even get me started on Supercats. They shouldnt be legally able to be sold as tyres. Barely ok in the dry, but downright dangerous in the wet. Had two or three cars come on them now and all have been like driving on marbles in the wet.

Not to mention the tiptronic gate on the shifter too Gorgeous looking car and awesome conversion. I bet the colour combo with the leather looks great

The logic of factory wheel bolts failing a cert escapes me. I believe the cert system is good for the most part, but that seems a bit stupid.
