Jdm135i 4 Report post Posted August 2, 2020 Welcome. that’s a very tidy looking E46. I'm also pretty new to the BMW world. So pleased I made the move away from a company car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sammo 2538 Report post Posted August 5, 2020 Very nice - I have a feeling that is the same car I had on my watchlist for ages - was it in Hamilton or something? Great look with the uprated 18's and in black Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RickGT16 5 Report post Posted August 7, 2020 Cheers! Yeah car was from Hamilton had been for sale for about a year, I gave them a good offer and they accepted. Ive never owned a car that handles so well, Im pretty impressed. I must say my first encounter with Hawke's Bay BMW was a pleasure, The car only came with one remote so I ordered the spare key from them (just the one that goes inside the adapter). Guy on the phone was helpful and ordered they key which comes from Malaysia and turned up in like 4 days. Couldn't start the car with it though... Guy said to take it in Turns out the little stainless spring inside which can easily goes either way only works in one way. While it was there they did the recall on the heater resistor and didn't charge me anything for testing the key and making it work. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
