Fantastic and interesting video IMO.

Ended up buying a 2011 528i sedan instead.

Why do I feel like the owner is you? 😂

Well, she hasn't recited it. There is a difference between an EV (Ardern's claim) and a mild hybrid (Toyota's planned Hilux). The Hilux wont be eligible for a subsidy, and will retain its original ORC, providing it comes to market. She has at best, stretched the truth regarding Toyotas press release in an attempt to smooth the pushback from the public over this tax grab/subsidy. If not she has misrepresented info from Toyota in which case someone in that position shouldn't be spreading 'misinformation' and further confusing the public (transparency and all that). The fact that Toyota CEO publicly refuted her claim should be enough to put to rest, but it seems her faithfuls are always there to go into bat for her. But lets be honest, she has quite the record of lying so on the back of no new taxes (apart from the 39% top tax rate) promise in the 2020 election campaign, whats another lie or broken promise to add to the telly.

Yeah but look at them, they look like crap 😂. I’m the type of person who would drop $20k on a low mileage example (because I did), but wouldn’t look twice at either of those. Big difference between a cared for, garaged, supermarket trip once a week example and one that’s sat outside deserted for 20 years. Apples and oranges. Also, In regards to a paint correction needing doing, it must have been done recently because it’s spotless. Anyways! I’ll take proper photos and put up a showroom thread sometime this coming week. Cheers

A few companies have renders ‘fixing’ the g80 design. while i think the below front looks better, its also a bit more boring being the usual design.

Jason Camisa is a car idiot savant

It strikes me that the reviewer in this video is a lot more knowledgeable about the cars under review, less egotistical and a better driver than 95% of the so-called reviewers on youtube. The information was presented clearly, articulately and in an entertaining manner that made watching this video a pleasure to watch. And for that I will forgive the gratuitous drifting/smoking tyres that usually has me searching for another channel. Well done son As an aside, I wonder if the aftermarket is busy crafting body kits for the new M3 to try and tone down that ugly face ? Cheers...

Duh....

Hey Everyone So we picked up this lovely 2006 E325i in the weekend (To replace a car that will be in the garage for who knows how long) .. We kinda brought it as a temp car with the thought of selling it again once we get the other back.. however... have come to LOVE how it drives.. so might need to hold onto it :D However I have some issues/questions regarding it. Hopefully someone might be able to help or put me in the right direction. :) 1) No Audio at all.. be it from the Radio.. or leaving the Key in.. or leaving the lights on.. or anything at all. From my searches I can see it's possibly because there looks to have been an old satnav? unit or something in the boot that has some spare connectors/cables hanging out.. and one of them possibly needs a "fiber optic loop bypass" connected to it? 2) Only have 1 key.. what is the best (cheapest) option in getting another one ? 3) Is there anything we can do in the Display re Navigation/TV etc etc etc? (I might be dreaming, but would be cool to have some sort of Android conversion :D) 4) Is there anything else nz specific/ex jap things that we need to look out for or can improve? Most the things I have read seem to be US specific which is not much help. 5) What are most people doing for spare tyres/space savers etc.. ?? (First time owning a car without one) Thanks heaps ! Oh and of course.. some pics :)

or ask @promo

Ah right, thanks!

saw you talking about the clubsport on another topic so thought you might be interested in this

I know of an exceptional 330ci the owner would be willing to trade (plus Kidney) for an E30 / E28 🤣 Seriously though, a nice F20 would be a great daily.

Arrhh, so it's the Alpina drivers that are giving the rest of us BMW owners the bad rap on poor parking skills.

FUNFIV? 😂

Two very different cars. The 330ci will get u maybe 8-10km/l whereas the 116 will be more like 12-13km/l. Both great cars nevertheless. what u really need is a 130i 😉

First small job was to sort out the godawful (in my opinion) tail lights, I've also replaced the black BMW badge prior to the photo's below.

Not superior in style. Older the better.
