Yes, that is me driving the tank.

Happy Birthday Glenn, sorry I missed it. Hope your future is bright and full of birthday wishes.

could also be a faulty drivers door lock motor, faulty key or faulty body control module.....have Botany Motor Worx check it out.

New Auto Tint (Electro Chromatic) mirrors are like $1000 each from memory from BMW. They may have come down in price since then.

Thought you guyz would appreciate that...... Tis' really an ugly thing AND if you've had a BMW that has never missed a beat you got very very lucky. From experience they have LOTS of "common" problems.

That made my day, and I absolutely agree.

There's no need to brake test someone, just install a push buttoin switch on the dash that operates the brake lights.....I've given many an a**hole undie stains with that one and as for queue jumpers I personally have forced many over the years off off ramps when they try that s**t. I always figure my car isn't worth much so no loss if they hit it.....works every time. I've also seen a guy speed up to 135 in a passing lane to prevent me from passing him (even though he was sitting at 90 most of the trip) and had his little kid in the front seat with no seatbelt on.......

Thought this might get some of you going........ and another angle.

The problem is that healthcare is not an optional part of the "package". If you want union (teamsters) workers you HAVE to provide healthcare (which is very expensive). And you company is ostracized and picketed if you don't use union workers so you have no choice. How would you like to be forced to provide healthcare and dental to your emplyees (wether you can afford it or not) or be bullied until you do provide it.

Yo Yong, Might pay to go and check out both Pick-A-Part's. My mates car was stolen and he found it there a 3 weeks later. Still had the chassis plate on it. Make sure you have a copy of the chassis number.

Think he means the small block 3.5L V8 from the Rover Vanden plas. Common engine upgrade for brits as its quite small. Troublesome tho when it breaks.

I would suggest you pull the inlet manifold off and replace ALL of the coolant hoses underneath it, as it can be a real bas**rd to do once the motor is in and plumbed up.

You may find that bonnet isn't legal in NZ due to the way it obscures the headlights. And I think you'll find genuine angel eyes are in excess if $1000 each.

Thats alot of boost, hope your not planning on trying to every day drive that thing...... Might need to ring someone who does turbo'ed cars or tuning shops on that one.
