E30s. Three different ones, at different times. In the rain, all in Central Hawke's Bay !

I chuckled. "Quick sale" says the ad. Seller lists it for 2 weeks... Still, that probably is quick at present.

Looking for a new one, to replace the two decades-old, noisy ones I have here. Turn them on and there's a decently loud "MMMMMMMMM" heard. @M3AN bought a CTEK MSX5.0 nearly 4 years ago - how's that going, Dave? Any recommendations for an all-encompassing unit? One which will sort cars, motorbikes, a quad (or similar), dealing with lead-acid, Lithium, maybe LiFePO4... Or would it be more sensible to get something specifically for a specific job? Anyone with any recent experience of investing, or knowledge of good deals?

Dave - we have a group message running but I'm unable to invite you to participate: apparently "M3AN cannot receive messages." Mailbox full?

@Jamez - If something can be sorted, would you be able to help/advise ? -
I've had a couple of responses. Planning to sort a discussion after the weekend, so please get in touch if you'd like to be more involved in running the premier BMW forum in NZ.!

OK. I've had a chat with Ollie and have more info. Question - how do we proceed? @Karter16 and @innoxious have expressed some interest (no commitment made or expected!). I'm not suggesting any sort of secret society nonsense but if there is a small group of people with interest in running and managing the forum, it'd be good to explore some ideas. That can be done in open forum, or more 'quietly' via messaging.
-
It was Ollie that I spoke to. I'll give him a call tomorrow.

I spoke with the owners a few years ago, but no numbers were mentioned. I did get the impression that something would be required, despite a feeling that the whole 'looking after the forum' aspect was more of a chore than a labour of love. I think I was waiting for a further comms but nothing came of it. The time may now be right. A fresh injection of enthusiasm could be a wonderful thing.

Parts ordered from the US. Expected delivery date is still a week out. But it's took 2 days for the parts to get from source, through multiple places in the US, to a plane, stopover in Honolulu, get to Auckland airport, clear customs, and get sent to East Tamaki. And sit there for 3 days. So I called. "Tracking says my package has been with you for 3 days. Any idea when I will receive it?" "Naah mate. Docs say delivery around the 25th. Spose it'll get to you by then."

In the same theme, but more of a disappointment than a rant... Selection of items from the Rockauto site. So much - massively - cheaper than anywhere in NZ. Until shipping is added. Note to self: Rockauto source from multiple locations and shipping is paid on each location. Now checking if MyUS will change the situation from my perspective.

Well, yeah... But in a world where a M40-engined manual car can be listed at $25k and more, this still represents (comparatively) good value. I do agree - the seats are a little much. -

Baur 325... -
I fell into renting space at one point. It was so good to have somewhere to put everything! But.... $$$. Exhibiting self-control I didn't know I had, I now keep everything at home. And if there isn't space, then something has to go. (Until I can build a bigger shed...)
