I'm open to offers if my prices are a little wack or unrealistic so check it out and let me know. Shipping-wise I'm not very savvy so will be a learning curve if anything needs to be sent north or south I'll give it a go, pickups are fine - Wellington 14" Basketweaves, set of FIVE with tyres, nothing special just sava and kingstars, WOFable, rims all have minor curbing $150 E30 black leather doorcard to suit 4 door, trims, screws, clips are more or less there $80 E30 green/grey houndstooth coupe door cards, screws, clips are more or less there $80 UPDATE EDIT

If no one else has offered I may be able to pick it up, cut off what you are after then send. Will just need to put the roof racks on the wagon. PM me

Hey guys, figured this would be the best place of any to get advice/hear storys from anyone that has had to claim insurance on they're BMW. I seem to be having nothing but the up most trouble with trying to settle a claim for damage that was done to my M325i. How the accident happened nearly 2 months ago was that I was heading back from work and turned off the motorway to come up into town then onwards home which involved passing straight through a 4-way roundabout. My entry and exit to the roundabout was clear so I went for it, but as "luck" would have it, the driver to the left of me failed to anticipate my presence on the road and collided with my passengers side at the middle of the roundabout in a "V" shaped manor. Kinda like a "T-Bone" but more side-by-side impact. I'm all ok, just the car is looking very sad. Which brings me to my insurer. Very helpful with advice about the accident (first accident I've been involved in so I was noob as), and with filling out the claim form. They gave me a list of reputable panelbeaters so I picked a local crowd, real good as dudes there, so I left the car with them for a few days to scope out the damage and pass on their quote to my insurance company. That's where my trouble begins. They want to write my car off because the repairs far exceed the value of the car. I didn't see how this was possible as the car is and has been insured with them the last 3 years at a value of 6k First Party. Their own valuation of my vehicle is a maximum of 2K and the fact that it is a NZ new, genuine M325i which I thoroughly explained to them, means no difference. They did however give me the option to get my own valuation on the vehicle which they would agree to. Sorry for the novel but here are my two questions: 1) Can anyone recommend a place in Wellington where I can have a valuation done. 2) Why the F@#K am I the one who seems to be drawing the short straw. My understanding of it is that the guy that crashed into me, his Third Party insurance would cover the entire repair of my car regardless of cost? NB: But it would seem the way my insurance company is wanting it to go is that I have to pay my $900 excess in order to receive my 2k for having insurance cover and then spend $500 buying the vehicle back from them. And yet they stand by me in the fact that the cause of the accident wasn't my fault! This whole ordeal has left a very dark taint on the relationship with my insurance company who I will never be using for anything again. Any help is appreciated Thanks.

Have made the change over to using BMW coolant on my new engine just for compatibility with the overhaul of the cooling system. Plus a bit for piece of mind factor. Added with a new clear coolant reservoir and it makes checking the level much easier with just a quick glance. Opinions with using water for an Artesian aquifer?

Hey guys, just after a 2.5L m20 bare block for future stroker plans. Possibly even as a short block with crankshaft and bearing etc. for measuring and checking comparisons. Let me know what you have. Edit: must be FL style with the means of having the crank position sensor mounted at the front

Yup, PM me

Just after a Schwarz (black) bootlid to suit an e30. Spoiler holes with/without is no problem. Otherwise let me know what you have

PFL helrot E30 with TechII kit, Alpinas and 333i along Petone Esplanade about an hour ago. Met the owner and he let me sit in it. Are there any others in the country?

The 173 ecu is to suit a 325i on motronic 1.3 right? I'll have it please. Can pick up tonight after work.

Was aware about the lack of gold paint, I probably should've noted something about inspiration after seeing it. Isn't it some kind of spray on cleaning product dealers use to shine up the engine bay. A wet look type of finish that deteriorates with the engine heat?

I'm totally gonna rock a gold valve cover on my e30 after seeing your engine bay! Good luck with sale dude. Awesome looking techII.
