  1. I bought mine in August, Had to replace the fuel level sensor which I diagnosed and purchased from the US. That was an easy fix. I also lost the car for 6 weeks while the vanos oil pump and high pressure line were replaced. This was covered under warranty, (total cost approx $8000) it only cost me $600. The SMG is also quite problematic on the early builds, some get lucky. If it has had the software updates you can be a lot more confident though. They also have issues with the rod bearing being pretty stuffed in some cases after 150-200k km's, this appears to be more common overseas. Overall I'm happy with my purchase, you have to go into it prepared for the fact one day it could cost you thousands. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

    Thanks, It was taken heading out to Otatara at the old docks. I still need to roll the rear guards to reduce the rubbing, Had to butcher the guard liners to fit them in the first place. Here's a few more I took today at Bluff. For those who are curious, here's the dyno sheet.

    Cheers, it was one of the main reasons I picked this car. Didn't want just another black or silver one.

    After fixing a few mechanical issues that these cars are notorious for I've now got it sitting how I wanted. Carbon front lip installed, front bumper resprayed, Eibach lowering springs (front only for now) and my Work Gnosis CV201 wheels fitted. Specs are 20x9.5 +5 275/30/20 20x11 +28 305/30/20 Took a bit of massaging to get them in there and will need a little more but I'm happy with the result. Apologies for the cell phone photo's and dirty car.
  5. Still have one left, shout yourself a xmas present.
  6. Certainly do, if you're keen contact me on 027 780 6819
  7. Yes, they're still available. Shipping with insurance for the above value is approx $150. Note: These are for an E60 with the Motorsport package not an E60 M5 as some have miss-interperated.
  8. They're made in china, most of the ones on ebay are anyway. I was quite impressed by the quality/finish of them.
  9. Hi, I have two Carbon fibre/fibre glass composite front lips for sale for a E60 5 series with the motorsport front bumper. They're brand new, never been fitted. Comes with some mounting hardware but I recommend using additional adhesive. As always some alterations may be required for perfect fitment. $450 each - Willing to ship at buyers expense.
  10. The bit that interests me the most is how much it shares with the M4, that motor is just waiting to be opened up. Could definitely be keen in a couple of years.
  11. New sensor arrived today from the US, installed it and now the distance to empty is reading correctly again. Problem solved Installation was a bit of nuisance as the lid on top of the fuel pump was very tight and you have limited working room.
