Saw this little gem in our Welly depot, needs a bit of work tho

Yeah but once you go from 318i to 540i, 328i etc you probably won't want to drive a 318i again. Nothing deluded about V8 torque, anyone whos passed a slow car on the open road in one will tell you that.

i totally get the 'i love it i must buy it whatever the price' mentality, id be hesitant to give him 3 or 4 that would be my limit for something that needs so much work! even the engine has a big question mark over it, might start and run now but how long for if it has been sitting so long, doesnt even come up in carjam so must have been sitting for at least 15 years!

Its $4500 no reserve so just chuck that much on it, get it home, and do the cooling system and all fluids etc. Wont cost much, its manual- and room left in the budget for diff etc. 1 Buy E36 2 Empty wallet 3 Winning And to the poor deluded fools talking about the extra torque of their V8, this is a guy who was happy with his ditch sweeping 318, remember

Thread cleaned up and members warned. This might be a good time for people to have a read of the forum rules again.

yeah E30's are nice cars, go with one i say! I'm not exactly mechanically minded but I have an E30 and it's my first car. I do bits and pieces on the engine, it's good to learn all that stuff i think :-) Anyway, just by looking at it on trade me I'd say look for something else or just wait it out. You want something that's been looked after at least a little bit - some sort of service history. I think for that price or maybe a little bit more you could get something far nicer! I was looking around at E30s for around 6 months before i got mine. As for AA checks, I didn't get one done and from what i read on here they're a waste of time and money on such an old car. You'll inevitably end up with pages of things 'wrong' with it. I used this 'buyers guide' to help me with my purchase. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?826530-E30-buyers-guide

Gave the m3 a work out....

Few shots taken by [email protected] @ gloss master BBQ last Saturday

got the exhaust done on the 544iT/6 the other day used a e34 m5 mid section muffler , couple of bullets up front and one of those S/S beer cans at the back so about 2.5" twin pipe all the way through now. sounds quite nice , not quite as loud as the last red 544i sedan i had seams to have released a bit more power

Exactly, i was just about to post the same thing. Sure the 530i handles a little and has nicer steering feel but its nothing compared to having more hp and way more torque with a V8. My E34 is nearly as fast as a 530i with its M30 engine that come out in early 80's making the M54 a pretty pathetic engine power wise, most of them are slushboxes too making the handle benefits a moot point to me.

Kayak racks.

Pah... Everyone goes on about the 530's balance, better steering system, etc but f*ck that. I'd take the extra 140Nm of torque the V8 delivers any day of the week!!

Took the dog for a walk in Western Park and walked back along Ponsonby Road at about 7.30pm. Spotted an alarming number of bootcut jeans, especially near the Longroom. Fortunately I saw this at the end of my road... Obviously belongs to James Bond 'cos it's got what appear to be ski racks on in summer.

Ok so because you guys are really good FINALLY starting a thread thats not in the forsale section, ill give you the story. Disclaimer: I must stress, i do not recommend or condone or anyway responsible if you choose to use replicas on New Zealand roads. This post is inteded to inform only, not to recommend one way or another, you can make your own decision Similarities: Both Pressed Aluminium Both Reflective Genuine plates.co.nz Plates: Ferns are lazered on, and stretch right to the very edge of the plate, leaving one single silver filled rectangle where you combination is. Have additional reflecting silver ferns when held in the correct light, just like your standard govt issue plates. Hew New Zealand specific font that it used on both wide and narrow plates. Replica ones that you can buy through me here on bimmersport Ferns are a sticker that i put on personally when the plates arrive here in New Zealand. Stickers leave a slight gap between them and the outer edge of the frame. This is due to copy right reasons i will say below Do not have the additional ferns Have the font used right through the European union apart from the United Kingdom which has its own Font again. (AFAIK) My understanding of the reason New Zealand changed to the new font midway through the Dxx### series is because the new speed cameras could not read the old style number plates because it wasnt a font programmed by the machine. They reprogrammed it, but it still had issues differentiation some letters, such as O and Q and 0. So the font was changed to a "better" font. I have been told that as time has marched on, some speed cameras rolled out now cannot even read the old font at all anymore, but roughly half of NZ's fleet are already on the new style font. ALL of the Euro letters are slighlty narrower than the NZ ones, because NZ plates have 6 letters, whereas the european ones have up to 9 characters (less two for the flags at each end gives 7). Other differences include the numbers 7 and 0 (zero), and quite a few of the letters are different too, such as C, I, J, Q and Y. But many of them are the same or so close to the same it would be hard to tell such as A, B, D, E, F.... Now, there are three reasons why the replica ones are illegal to run on the road in New Zealand. (not illegal to possess) Speed cameras are not calibrated to read the european font. Thats not to say they won't, as I say, some letters are very similar, and remember the cameras are catching your car speeding so they do have a margin of error built in. For example, I own the combination ETHRTY in genuine european style on my BMW E30. I hope it wont happen to me, but there is nothing stopping Joe Criminal from importing a set of fake europlates with the same combination, and putting them on a stolen E30 and robbing a petrol station. Someone hands the registration to the police, and the police think its me that robbed the station. The victim or witness knows nothing about cars and dont notice they are replica plates, thats the last thing on thier mind. Hell, the plates could be on a Corolla or whatever, red sedans are red sedans to some people. I get jailed or whatever. The third one is what most people think is the main reason, and thats that Plates.co.nz designed the europlate style etc and its a copyright infringement. Everyone has their own opinion of this. I should probably check with him before i post this, but basically, Chris at Germanplates.com was the only crowd at the time to produce them as a replica of the plates.co.nz ones. P.co.nz didnt like that and complained and threatened legal action etc. So he changed them and thats why the ones people have brought from me have the thin white rectangle right round the edge of the plate. Chris (or any other 3rd party) has (edit: never) sold them with the New Zealand Font before. I have discussed this twice with Chris, but 2x die sets to have made up for the printing machines is in excess of $5k. NZ isnt a big enough market for them, and even if it was marginal, the chance of P.co.nz coming after him or me or both is just too high. As for getting away with them, well i have been doing them here for about 4 to 5 years now (that thread was started after about the 5th group buy), each buy is roughly 10 sets, so there are easily 200 sets out there JUST through Bimmersport. Add in everyone here that has imported themselves, and then all the people on eurosport.org.nz, all the VAG and Merc forums, etc etc etc, must be a few thousand cars on our roads now with them. I am sure most of them arent on garage walls as art etc.. So im not surprised the police are starting to take notcie of them, probably being subsidesed by plates.co.nz as thats how the world works (yes there is corruption in New Zealand, you are blind if you think there isn't) In that time, I have only heard of people getting tickets for them in the past year or less. and yes, all in Auckland. Wow i wonder how long that took me to write
