Hi Everyone! I am the current owner of this rather nice 740i SE. I've had it for about a year and it has been a lot of fun - I've taken it to Taupo, Northland, Coromandel, etc. Always been super reliable and a great long-distance cruiser. Unfortunately I have come to the conclusion that I need a station wagon and I cannot justify running two cars (plus one motorbike). This means the 740 has to go This is a great car for someone who appreciates originality. It is a fully-loaded, NZ-new, V8 E32. It's completely unmodified (except for the *ahem* Mercedes-Benz floormats) and has had lots of money spent on it by the previous owner to keep it in good condition. This includes full restoration of the Oxford Green metallic paintwork. The car is up on Trade Me for $5,500 - very open to offers from people who love classic 80s/90s BMWs. https://www.trademe.co.nz/MyTradeMe/Sell/Current.aspx

So... its been a while since I have been here and I guess I should provide some updates! So another year or so passed with the car just sitting in the garage most of the time, and being bought out for the occasional show or cruise. After 4's and Rotors 2018 I decided the car needed a bit of a change up.... and hence the process of beginning a wrap came to mind. Now, 90's touring cars are amazing looking machines in my mind, and most are sponsored by cigarettes or alcohol. The only thing that I could think that would work well with the red would of course be the classic white and red Marlboro livery!!! I do have to say that putting the wrap on took a hell of a lot more time than I ever thought! Wrapping around the door handles was tricky and we didn't get the job perfect, however it looks great in photos and definitely turns some heads! I managed to pickup some ratty old rims, that I quickly gave a coating of white paint to and chucked my semi slicks onto. I do have to say they turned out far better than I could have imagined! Then came the day of Chrome Expression Sessions, and the car ran perfectly! Not a drop of oil used, and it handled fantastically all weekend! Was interesting to see that the car wasnt as slow as I expected against everything else that was there down the straight too!

Sweet ride dude!

Maybe I need to skip the wagon hunt and get Brent's 335 if it's still there.

Sad times when even RR have to succumb to a market full of people who hate driving that buy SUV's/Sports cross over vehicles.

Don't be a wanker and ask for photos. Third world countries have better internet than me.

"just an extra 50c to change the transmission type. Increase your chance of sale by 59.3%!"

Why do Ranger’s, douche-max’s and Amacock’s have to be so high off the ground? Total pain in the arse trying to see traffic when one pulls up next to you at an intersection. Also they should give free parking lessons to the majority who buy these over-hyped P’sOS.
