It’s been a very long time since I last posted here but I too would like to remember Atta. He was an absolute top man, top father, had a true passion for BMWs and we shared our perfectionism for cars and grooming. I’m not a great wordsmith but yeah, it’s totally sh*t. Thinking of Atta and his family. 

Thanks mate. Such a stunner if I say so myself. Much has been done over the last couple years to make it hopefully one of the best around. Certainly a keeper for someone!

Does anyone have an Auckland recommendation for someone who does leather restoration? Not looking for reupholstering but a proper rest. Cheers

Good work! I love 930s

i have some on the way too somewhere between here and germany.

You must have been tipped off they are still available from the same source as me!

E28 might be different, but just push in on E30. maybe take your back seat out (a lot less daunting than it sounds) and have a look, maybe someone has put something on the back of them.

Andy I literally went to AkCity BMW and they said they could get them! What a score aye...

Cheers guys - Brent you're an E28 source. I think we need to meet haha!

Guys and gals, I have bought replacement motorsport seat badges for the back seat on my E28. (They are still supplied OEM from BMW !) They look like the should just push into the seat but I can't get the old ones to budge. Am I missing something? Has anyone replaced them before? Thanks

Yep - bargain of 2015 right there. I did spot some rust under the rear right wheel arch but what a car. Hopefully it went to a good home - I'm sure it did.

Legend cheers... Have you done this before?

Hey team!! I have a 1987 M535i..... The other day the odometer stopped. It's been working fine for 28 years but now both the odo and trip meter have ground to a hault. Anybody know what's wrong? How do I fix it?

It's a long shot but does anyone have any turner motorsport (or similar) 15-20mm hub centric wheels spacers? 5x120?

Ah lovely!! I've just secured some awesome BBS RSs.... Thanks Bruce! Will be posting pics in showroom soon!

Hey cheers Brent for the advice. Such a lovely car you have there. I just bought an M535i like yours. I think I'll have to run a 15mm spacer for them to work well. Thanks for fhe offer but i have the brake upgrade already!

Hey team... To all my wheels experts out there, will a set of BBS RS 16" wheels fit my e28 with a 33 offset (ET33). Or will they sit in too much?

If so, what are your thoughts on spacers?

Thanks guys! I love LMs but they're a little too modern for the car they're going on! Thanks for the PMs. Keep them coming

Hey BMW family. Keen to purchase a set of 16" or 17" BBS wheels (5x120) for an e28. Keen for RSs or style 5s but if you have anything to sell, get in touch. Cheers

Yeah it's definitely a UK import. I've seen the car. It's really nice. Im actually keen to purchase but I don't know where to start at $22k :-( sigh. Don't wana offend anyone with an offer that's thousands lower than asking. Ahhhh well.

I remember when this was for sale from a dealer about 6 months ago. I thought when it sold for $17k that was $$$$$$$$ but $22k. Wow. Lovely car though. Anyone know this car well?

Yep that's right. Just get into it mate, I did and it worked a charm. Just be gentle and don't lose any screws.

You can remove the cluster, take off the back and very easily straight swap the clock for a tacho. So easy!

Does anyone have a set of alpina or bbs wheels they want to sell?

I have an e30 M325i : 4x100, either 16 or 17"

I had a mint little 316i just like when I was 22! Brilliant car mate, love it. Does it have the big clock in the cluster?

Now THAT'S what I call an engine bay!!

Does anyone here have experience plasti dipping wheels? Seems like a cheap way of making them look cool but how durable would it be on a wheel??

Well i figured it out! The issue was when I pushed the idrive button to bring up options on the small map i ONLY got map options. There wasn't one to bring the OBC back up.

Well I gave the button an almighty twist and it passed through its 'end of menu' resistance and I got another option to bring back the OBC. Weird.

FYI to anyone else that battles the nonsensical idrive
