LaBimmer

I might be leaving the Bimmer family, but don't worry Peter... BMW will always be in the family. Thanks Faizal! I know it's a Mercedes... but I'll try and come along to the next meet up, so I can show it to everyone, and so that you can hear that sweet 6.2ltr V8 as well . And as promised... (better late than never) here are some photos of the new machine that I took on my drive from Christchurch back to Wellington. It still needs a proper detail haha!

Price update! Now $22,990.

Unfortunately I don't have a say in the price as I am not the one selling it... but I get what you are all saying.

Helping out a friend who is selling this stunning 1986 BMW 635csi. The car has done around 79,500kms, has electric seats, sunroof and plenty more. The car is left hand drive. Come on into O'Reilly's Garage, 152 Hutt Road, Petone, Lower Hutt where the car is stored. For more info on the car feel free to give Simon O'Reilly a call on 021 319 992. Price is $24,990

Unfortunately no family discounts... sorry Dad ?

Thanks Pete! Yeah sad to let go of it ?... but the replacement is an absolute BEAST ?. When I get it I'll upload some photos of it! ?

Thanks Gabriel! When I get the replacement I'll get some photos up!

I'm in the process of buying a new car... well a second hand, one of my favorite cars. Luckily I have a lot of good contacts and have found one for a bloody good deal. So now it's time to sell my current pride and joy ?... i don't want to sell it, but owning two cars will be slightly unnecessary. On the plus side the new car will be worth it ?? More details available on my listing. Feel free to ask away and make me an offer if anyone is interested! Ideally I would like $16,000 for it but any offer around that area would be considered. If the price is right I might accept it... so go ahead! ? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1400269772&ed=true 20170804_183337.mp4

Thanks mate! might only be small mods here and there but they are mods that make me smile when I see the car. Le Mans Blue Metallic is probably one of the best colours for these IMO

Thanks Pete! It was awesome meeting everyone on Saturday, great bunch of people to hang out with and looking forward to future meetings ?

Thanks! I added the roof spoiler. It definitely finishes off the back end just nicely ?

Hello fellow BMW lovers! Yes... that's right, better late than never... I'm from South Africa and have been in New Zealand for roughly 9 and a half years... now a full Kiwi. I've been crazy about cars all my life (since a little boy) and now at the age of 22 that passion still runs deep inside of me. After I finished uni two years ago I found myself working at a company with a name well known across NZ in the motor industry... Armstrong Prestige. I've been a full time Sales Groomer there for two years now and my roll is to get everything (from new stock to sold cars) in mint (showroom) condition, as well as the odd delivery up North every once in a while. I absolutely love working there and have driven some pretty spectacular cars in that two year period... from the little Audi A1 right through to the latest full blown Porsche 911 GT3 RS, Cayman GT4, Audi R8, RS7, RS6, RS3, McLaren 570s, Ferrari 458 Italia, F430, RR Ghost, RR Phantom, Bentley's, Merc SLS AMG, C63s AMG, E90 E92 M3, F80 M3, F10 M5..... just to name a few (the list could go on forever, but I'll stop there for now). I've built some good relationships with a lot of our top customers. What's my goal... to move up into Sales and sell some damn cars. My 1st car was a 95' E36 328i (a Christmas gift from my parents). Bought the car stock standard, the mods started when I started working. The engine remained stock standard (apart from the K&N Air Filter). As for the body, I turned it into a full on M-Sport replica... bumpers, side skirts, E46 M3 18" wheels, angle eyes, clear indicators all round, as well as a full leather interior swap from a E36 318i M-Sport that was traded at my work, but before they could wholesale it away my boss gave it to me for $500... the whole car, low km's in decent condition... so a steal of a buy really. I owned the E36 328i for roughly just more than two years... until I started itching for something newer... and along came my 2nd car, an 06' BMW 130i E87 M-Sport (which I bought for myself). The 328i is now my dad's again. I've been in the 130i for almost a year and damn it is a fun car to drive. With a 3.0L Straight 6 under the hood what is there not to like about it. I've done a few small mods here and there to it but over all loving it just as it is... actually I'll continue to do things here and there to it. Details for those who want to know about the car listed bellow. 2006 BMW 130i Le Mans Blue Metallic 1st gen idrive Heated seats 18" 135i M-Sport wheels (17" M-Sport previously) Black line tail lights BMW Aerodynamics package boot spoiler BMW black grills BMW Performance alcantara gear knob boot & hand break boot 1M bi-xenon headlight upgrade (only E87 in NZ with 1M headlights as far as I know, I might be wrong) LUX H8 V5 LED Angle Eyes Genuine black ///M rear emblem (bought on EBAY from a German based BMW dealership for $70... $150+ if bought from Jeff Grey BMW (now Winger BMW) Tinted windows K&N Air Filter That's the list for now... and sorry for the massive new member intro.
