well they should be banned all together lol. providing thier use of the road complies with road rules, and dont hold up regular traffic, i dont mind that. they do not damage roads except for when thier bones and bike frames get grinded into it when they fk up lol

Just getting my head around how to post pictures here. Some progress shots of the Group 5 build this week. Rear wheel tub fabrication. More at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Elan-Motorsport/662026323873874?tab=public&view Thanks for looking - Richard

this should provide some entertainment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3zgzK6zBms

He realised it was purple...

Get the listing number, then go to ebay.co.uk, and type it in the search. The listing will still be German, but the buttons are in england you can understand

Not you're everyday commuter! There was two of them going through Mt Eden Village on Monday.

Ooo... Modern. Should be able to solder on a tiny resistor between the bulb terminals and the base to get rid of any OBC errors.

Still a buttload better looking than a prius! An added bonus is you wouldn't feel like killing yourself everytime you drive the i3.

the electric/trolley buses here in Wellington have pretty surprising amounts of torque too. Definitely throw you towards the back of the bus if you've got an inconsiderate driver who doesn't wait for you to sit down!! I can imagine the i3 being so much smaller would be impressive

i'd say its only because no one in the ugly round building in Wellington has clicked to this fact.

Cheap cause its purple

It's very common really. There are also a LOT of ABS module common faults out there, on all sorts of makes - you'd think they'd have this stuff sorted by now with all the technology around! If you get a new unit, DIS will code it to the car, but you MUST have a proper cable, with actual voltage sensing that works. I purchased mine direct from Germany too, but I was comfortable with doing the coding and replacement, and also the risk if anything went wrong - If you aren't into that, get something local for sure! Fitting takes about 10 minutes, but coding is the harder part. You've got some good options above, in Auckland. I only found one place in NZ that did repairs (But I didn't look really hard!), and they quoted a price close enough to the new replacement for for me personally not to bother (about 3/4???). I did destroy my old one afterwards, just to see the dumb design for myself

I assume you mean in your E39 ? I went thru the repair ( twice ) and secondhand unit, all failed again after 6 months - you might be lucky with s/h unit, but I ended up getting a brand new one from http://www.maf-shop.com/index.php/cat/c24_BMW-ABS-Control-Unit.html/XTCsid/23fdc5fde94cf302ea0005b3c05ee975 You will need to code it to the car or take it to somebody who can do it for you - might be easier in the long run to just go see Ray - I didn't have that option being 1000ks away ! Good luck.

Very common to fail. Have a replacement.

those fuel economy stats are better than mine! broken vanos and no tune must really make a difference!

Where's the popcorn Make it interesting by including double clutch downshift with blip whilst waving

I vote R32 conversion.
