Blacked out the grille today... Only screwed up the one when I accidentally dropped washing on it.. Still looks alright!

New wheels and new plate thanks Andy. Couple days late with the post haha

What the article fails to point out is why people use those plates. I use german plates because i dont want to pay the crazy $400 to have the same thing but purchased through Personlised Plates Ltd. This publicity on the matter could be a good thing to expose the monopoly of personalised plates but they failed to show that here. My flatmate is a reporter for Seven Sharp and shes always wanting good ideas for storys. I will point it out and see if shes interested.

I'm Jelous. Had to drop my son over to Halcome yesterday. Parked on the side of the road are 2 740i's, 2 750il's a E36 328i coupe and a 850i all in the same driveway. I stopped and knocked on the door but nobody was home. I'm wondering what BMW they where out in..lol I'll be heading back in a few days so will stop in again. Wanted to take a pic or 2 but didn't feel right taking pics of someones house and driveway. I'll ask if theres someone home next time. Was a nice collection though.

Cool so when is the E38 meet? just no drag races, a 2.8 is wicked in a 3 series hmm not to much in a 7 lol

Woohoo... Cleaning out the garage, and found my 11/32 socket ... WTF will I ever use it for??? Probably won't even fit on the Model A. So far it's only ever been used for filling the space in the set...

Sneak peak. Busy weekend. All parts fitted. Old oil out new oil in. Old wheels out new wheels on.

Definitely a move in the direction of money collection.

How many times have you done this? You write a post, check it, post it, and then notice that huge, glaring error which either makes you feel like a illiterate idiot, or completely transforms the meaning of your post into somethig completely different to your intention. Obviously, you can edit it, which is great, but invariably leaves the 'Edited by...' message. I'm obviously being pedantic, but that annoys the hell out of me! Would it be possible to have a few minutes to edit a post, before this happens? Post, edit, make corrections, submit and so on for (say) 3 minutes before the 'Edited... ' message is added?

Black > carbon grills!

Your cars looking awesome. Really like the blacked out grills too. Good job. And do you want to borrow my sheep, lawnmower I mean..

That might be a tough ask. Good luck though, they do appear occasionally. I got an almost running e28 for $1K for reference.

^ your plates are legitimate europlate ones issued in NZ - the font on your plates is the slighly older one we used to use before they replaced it with the bolder font plates you see around these days.

So Auto-incorrect? See - manual is Sooooooo much better

i think I have decided to bring my E38 for that meet instead of the cabby now Was a guy here Jarad (Eagle) that used to be a regular here, he tracked a 740i at the first of the annual Bimmersport Taupo trackdays (non this year sadface.jpg), it did very well, plenty of body roll but still looked very tidy all considering.

Euro Italian or Milland. Both are very good.

If it was anything other than revenue collection they would make them illegal to import.

I got mine from Gavin at Euro italian.

Nice work ! ... looks bloody amazing. Love the vibe going on at the moment with people restoring cars back to mint. This is why this community is rad.
