    It’s a bit like the housing market. It’s a buyer’s market atm. If you are really desperate to sell your classic car or your house, you are gonna have to lower your expectations. But if you are not, or can ride it out, I think things will pick up again in a couple of years.

    The comment section on that listing is guaranteed Grade A popcorn material. A good combo of the seller being blatantly deceptive/misinformed and a very eager, passive aggressive wind up doll. For the amount of money and effort that's gone into that build, you'd at least hope the dude would know the basic certification requirements. Wouldn't have much confidence in all of the work to have been done to a good standard with that sort of attitude on display. Bloody shame as looks a real gem of a car on paper. Was nearly tempted to go sell a kidney there, a nice E30 Touring is absolute GOALS.

    Competing tonight for the most trivial of complaints… bought a pack of digestive biscuits. Seeming unassailed pack, but the individual biscuits, which appear whole when you look at them, disintegrate as soon as you touch them. The entire pack is like this. end result still the same, just messier getting there.

    Well mine is still floating around for sale. I joined Wastebook to access Marketplace and awesome comments, and have had a few questions and some offers of $22k and $23k. Am not in a hurry but be better if the damned GP would sell

    Great question - a few have been sitting in there for some time, I see the flipped M325I Tech 1 is back on again for silly money. Of those which sell its impossible to tell which have sold for asking or near the ask price.

    Yay, shiny bits! Got all this rejuvenated metal back from the machine shop. Pretty nice seeing it clean enough to eat out of. Full list of work done so far: Will probably cotton wrap it all and put on temporary hold until I get the head situation resolved. Still have the subframe bushes to sort out and gearbox detents to replace so plenty to keep me busy in the meantime. The shop guys reiterated that the main bearings don't really need replacing but I managed to find a new Glyco set for just around $85 so might still chuck new ones on whilst I'm at it. Still weighing up whether to drop ~$520 on new valve springs though. Would be nice but then again... $520. Money pit problems.

    Anybody keen for a nice 2002?? https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/3596340928?tm=email&et=45&mt=729E11BE-B8E5-4BCB-A7AF-EACDC8ACB2FD&bof=YoeEB7jb Yes, it's a $40k starting price - but if you started with a $20k shitter it would end up costing a lot more than $40k to get it to this level. This one is an auto, which will put a few people off no doubt.
