Purchased a set of genuine Alpina 16" wheels (rims + tyres) from @darren_mk for my E30. They're on the way to me now. Great communication and a pleasure to deal with 🙏.

Once they did start to respond to support emails it became clear the issue was not the shipping estimate. To bump up the order to a discount level I grabbed a tube of sunroof grease (listed as in stock), turns out the sunroof grease was not in stock and the expected delivery from the supplier was causing the delay. Order is now on its was minus the $10 tube of grease. No doubt the package will sit in the clearing depot in Auckland for a week before it starts to move.

I'm being a bit over the top with my F20 116i and changing every 6000km. I'm using OEM BMW filters and Castrol Edge 5w30. Turbocharged engines cook the engine oil pretty quick compared to old NA engines, well especially when tuned too.. haha -
At today’s prices it would have to be a rough as Evo II needing quite a bit of work. Non original M3s are a hard market to price, as it’s all down to personal taste.
-
Have you got any 8hp70 trans?
-
For 120k I want an Evo II with an S14 thanks - I'm sure it's great to drive but originality is everything IMO.
-
Welcome bud! Lovely workmanship! Look forward to seeing your builds

Went to Manfeild on Saturday for a track day. Took the black manual 130i for a hoon. Went well. Unknown brake pads cooked pretty quickly and you can definitely feel the weight of the car. Good fun being chased down by the Mrs in her 200sx. They really should use these for a future race series chassis.
-
Thanks bro!
-
Looks mint (literally). Get well soon bro!

This white car is for sale. Going very cheap. I managed to get it fired up but needs new fuel. After 1200 ono for it. Rego on hold. Also here is the green one I mentioned. Cannot wait to heal so I can get stuck into it.

Can vouch for this car. It is wicked to drive and I currently have it at my shop getting some paint touch ups done. What a phenomenal vehicle. All the goodies! VID-20241222-WA0004.mp4

Inspired by @CSET and the Facebook series “playing with cars” I decided to use some spare bits to get the convertible back together so I can at least take it for a WoF while I wait for the parts to come back from panel and paint. So I now have a “rat rod” style Vert, fingers crossed for the WoF!

I May consider selling my 330d touring
-
Yeah for sure at the bottom of the depreciation curve. Not expecting to get big $ for it, contemplating wether I sell it now as i don’t really need it or I wait till I find a cheap m sport 320i with a blown engine and swap everything across, and keep it for a bit.
-
Looks a clean example @elias! As you say not many on the market, especially NZ new and without the emissions equipment tampered with. They are probably at the bottom of their depreciation curve now, so maybe 8-9k to the right buyer. I think the E91 facelift 335d touring went for about 12.

Hello, potentially considering selling my e91 330d. It’s unfortunately not an m sport model. Titan silber, black electric leather seats, non I drive, sunroof, parking sensors. m57 engine. 6hp Auto. 160k kms wof and rego current, not in perfect condition definitely has some scratches here and there. anyone got any idea what it’s worth? They’re really hard to come by in the wagon shape. completely stock nothing deleted, no tune etc

My N55 equipped X5 has always had a small stumble at mid load low/mid revs. The wife reckoned it was quite bad on a long trip last week. No codes etc so I figured I'd throw some DI Jectron at it. Can't find any in NZ, is there anything else worth using that might make a difference? Mileage is about 150k, always had BP 98 in it when I've owned it. Ease of throwing something in the tank vs removal to clean vs cost of new ones makes this the first step if there's a chance.
