All tourings look good but yes, this is a fine example.

I have an Alpina lip too but the bottom part that sits under the bumper, looks slightly different to yours and doesn't seem to quite 'bolt up' to my standard bumper. Would be interesting to compare the numbers on them.

While I like the black rims on the white car, you are right, they are too big. Did you have to cut the motorsport rear around the towbar? I can't decided if I should leave the tow bar on or not on mine. Brent - how many tourings do you need If you part it out let me know, theres a couple of parts I'm after.

Bump - no one interested at all?

Bump - will prob do a dump run this weekend to get rid of the panels. Will also have a clean out of the e30 stuff I have lying around.

Ahh thats where I've seen it! I sold a set of wheels to a guy from down Oamaru/Timaru way who had an M5 and was looking for an e24.

The M5 didn't happen to come from Christchurch by chance?

Good start. Makes me want to get the manual conversion for the touring done. Check Swordfish's FS thread, he has some 18x8/9 BBS RG's for sale which will work if you want 9's on the rear. He is in Christchurch as well.

I have received a few PM's about these over the years so I am putting them up to see what I can get for them. I don't have to sell them but they are taking up room in the garage. 5x120 17x8.5 et15-20ish Centebore 72.5mm These are 3 piece reps with 16inch centers and step up lips to make the 17inchs. Lips aren't in the most awesome condition. One is curbed about halfway round and the other 3 have knicks out of them. I have tried to take photos the best I can. Tyres are 225/45 Continental Sportcontact 2 with huge tread. Terrible photo on my coupe $800 without tyres

Having a clean out so here is some stuff not needed for the touring E36 Rear $200 E36 Side Skirts $100 E46 16inch space saver. Free if you can pick it up or $10 plus shipping Also have a 17inch space saver from a Holden Commodore which I was going to collect 3 more and get them widened. Again, free if you can pick it up or $10 plus shipping.

Would you ship it?

White is going to suit the car perfectly. Fantastic choice. Are you going to have to run stretch to fit these on? Or are you going to run the biggest size you can fit?

These guys do a Roll on Roll off for approx $1400. You might struggle to get it legal on NZ roads though.

Time consuming yes. I posted a thing a wee while back about when I did it on my friends e36, I'll try to find it. I'm going to have to do the touring at some point which is going to be alot more fun. EDIT: Found it. Use google if you want any more info.

Despite the stupid wing mirrors, the new Ferrari has some similar lines but I much prefer it http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/05/laferra...tube-laferrari/

Has the seller got the offsets on those right?? I thought they should be 18x8 et20 and 18x9 et24.

Checklist to stancing you car in NZ; - Tread inside the guards - Tyres met size and rim width guidlines - Camber not more than half a degree greater than OE spec and tolerence Tick these off and you car is legal.

This should help you if you want to do it yourself.

Where they genuine? It's a sick feeling coming out and seeing your stuff gone. Hope the pricks get caught.

Have you looked at this one at Turners? I've got a motorsport kit that I could part with if you wanted to put on it.

This will save you some money on the manual conversion

Covered 1000km last weekend on a camping trip so spent the day cleaning, installing the arm rest (including retro cassette holder) and new bonnet badge. Tried to fit the coilovers in but far too tight so need to get a air gun before I play further.

Nice buy. Whereabouts in Burwood are you? I have just moved into Dallington so will keep an eye out for both of them

I did suggest yours but its either a white E46 or a 1 Series. And we can't afford a 1 Series so it's E46 or the bus.

So I managed to sell my girlfriends VW Polo today so now the hunt begins for her BMW. Basically looking at any e46 318/320, auto or manual (preferably auto). Only thing is that it must be white (might be tough). No other real must-haves, and will consider almost anything. At the moment we have a budget of 7k but may stretch for her dream car.
