Im going to be in the UK for a short time in the next couple of weeks and am going to check the possiblities of getting my contacts to send me clear, smoked or crystal, E30, E32 and E34 front and side indicators. The rears could possibly be done by special request but Im not sure about that yet. If you are seriously wanting clear or crystal rears, PM me and we can talk. Anyway, at present Im trying to firm up a price for a set of fronts and sides but in NZ dollars Im thinking that prices will be somwhere between 100-125 NZD. Postage and packing will be whatever it costs me to send it to you from within NZ. Im not interested on making money on the postage, what I pay, you pay. For a set of fronts and sides for the E34's they will be more like 150-175 NZD plus the NZ postage and packing. But again Id like to think that I can get them cheaper I will just have to wait until I am over there. So Im looking at the moment for people who are seriously interested in buying some. Either leave a message here or PM me and we can discuss requirements and prices. Ill try and get some photo's up to show you whats available but it might not be for a couple of days. Cheers Martyn

I thought I would bring it up in this section as the trademe auction had already been talked about in here.Im primarily trying to find out how many people would be interested before I go ahead and stick my neck out to get the stuff here. Feel free to move this to the group buy section if you want. Or better still lock this and Ill start another one with some indicative prices.

Which is what Im doing....so your point is ?

Seeing as this muppet is trying to sell E30 sides for 199 (and now is offering E34 sides for 250) is there anyone on here who would want a set for a reasonable price ? Im willing to get them from the UK from my sources for an awful lot less than this guy is charging. So PM me if your interested in clear or smoked, e30, e34, e32 or e38 fronts or side repeaters and well sort out some decent prices. Its possible that I can also get the crystal looking lenses aswell but Im still looking into those, but let me know if your keen. Sparkle are you still after E28 ones or are you happy with your tint spray ?

Oh that is so true.

If you're so interested in it why don't you just buy one and try it instead of being a pussy and waiting for someone else to do it? It's so f**king cheap it's worth a shot. Why dont you sell him yours Carl ?

:pimp:

Hassle ?!?!Where's the hassle in taking ten minutes to set up and Ebay and a Paypal account and saving yourself some serious money ? I cant count how much Ive saved myself over the years.

I got fronts and sides for mine for less than SD European would sell me ONE front indicator.Ebay :pimp: [edit] In less than 10 mins Ive found fronts and sides for E30's shipped to NZ for around 120 give or take on the exchange rate. 199....your having a laugh.

Do you consider yourself to be general public Damian Jazzbass, I was born closer to Tottenham too (a little further away than you though) but my Dad sorted me out :-) First game I saw was 0-5 at the lane with Chippy Brady bending in a beauty.

A new plate combined with 6 months of wof and tax also indicates its just arrived from somewhere.

I hate Tottenham

how exactly would it not be just another 325i? its rego? For the purporses of my arguement Im assuming this car is genuine. If I had an M325 which I knew to be the real deal I would have no problems about proving it....so the ball is in your court Busted.So Gus, when exactly does it stop being an M car ? When you take the badge off ? When you remove the kit ? When you dye the headliner orange ? At what point do you draw the line and say this car is no longer an M325 ? When it left the factory it was genuine and therefore will always be genuine regardless of what gets added or removed in its lifetime. Let me re-iterate, I have no problems with Andrew (or anyone else for that matter) wanting to confirm that it is genuine, I just dont agree with how he went about confirming it thats all.

Andrew, all of the things youve just mentioned can be removed and it will still be an M325.Why someone would choose to remove them is another story. I totally understand that you want to ensure the integrity of the site when it comes to cars selling but there is no need to be such a pr!ck about it.

Number one is definately LachSilber on my 750. Close second is the Aspen Silver I have on the e38 Im not into blacks or blues or bright silvers, but I have to say if Tane got the front smoked look going on his dolphin grey would look fantastic. Having said all that the Imola Red on the US 740 Sports is sensational !

The 4.4 V8 is truely a great sound but there is definately one thing better IMO.....and thats the sound of a 750il V12 at 4000rpm and above. Up until that point its just cool, calm and collected and you are already travelling at quiet a pace. But put the rear windows down and listen as you plant your foot. The scream is incredible not to mention the velocity you get to

Im married, with two young kids, an excellent income (by NZ standards) and a combined student loan that would scare the sh!t out of most of you. National are offering me thousands to vote for them but there is no way I will be ticking the blue box coming voting time. A family member of mine worked with Brash for years at the Reserve Bank (and I mean worked - not just saw him in the lift) and they wouldnt trust him to save their life. I was also at Vic when National signed a pre-election promise saying they would abolish student fees if they got in. The were duelly elected and then turned around and stuck two fingers up at the students laughing all the way to the bank. So why should I trust them with their latest bribe ? Labour has done a more than reasonable job with the NZ economy but they need to start either doing more with my taxes or start giving tax cuts. I pay a huge amount of tax, yet still have to spend 100 a term for my 4 year old to go to kindy and 25 dollars each time I take either one of them to the doctor....and thats not right. Early education and doctor visits should be free for everyone. I have no qualms about paying tax aslong as I can see that its going to the right places (health, education and roads are huge factors for me) and at the moment Im not seeing it. For me Labour has one last chance to show they can get the balance right. IMHO if National were to get in the only winners would be big business and those earning significant amounts of money.

Thats got as much to do with the fact that it weighs about the same as packet of crisps.The latest Atom has the 2 litre v-tec from the Honda Type R Civic, a car that i have yet to see in NZ, its supercharged to 300bhp I think.

m20 bolt that sucker on my m62

PM me some details my friend I want to come and have a look :-) E34 wagon = :pimp:

Me jealous......NO ! That is one beautiful car and if it was registerable I wouldve sold my e38 to have bought it, no question. I know lots of people in the UK who can help with anything you need on that car Kento, I used to have an e32 750iL with Alpina wheels before I came out here last year. Give me a shout if you want the info of their website. Erich (Shogun) is a major contributor to it and there are dozens and dozens of e32 owners who can help. I think there is even a B12 owner on the forum too. I have a few friends who would be willing to buy parts and ship them out if you need that sort of help too. One thing about the engine though, you HAVE to do everything possible to get it going. To even think about transplanting a standard v12 into that would be enough to make me cry. Alpina did a lot of special things to the standard V12 and it really is a beauty. Thanks for joining up and keep us informed of how the project goes. Its always been a dream of mine to own one of those...who knows I may even make you an offer if you get it going

Well your names Carl but you have ///Carl Well I started years ago with msims, then when I registered for places where it was taken I had mmsimss then when it came to using mmmsimsss I thought fcuk it Ill try martyyn. Ive spent my entire life telling people how to spell my name so I thought Id emphasise it and Ive only had one place in the last 6 or so years where it was already taken and that was Skype !

Amen

Neither of these cars are genuine Alpinas. The 740 certainly isnt and I told the guy selling it so, when he was advertising it as genuine.....its an iL for fcuks sake. The 735i was what Synter used to create the B11 and the 750i became the B12. Paul is right. The 735 would be taken to Synters, youd be given an options list and you could spec whatever you liked. However this car just doesnt appear to have enough on it. Believe me, the value of genuine Alpinas is such that when you have one you will certainly be advertising it properly, with pics of the build plate for a start. All the other bits (alloys, steering wheel, seats, stripes, skirts, needles etc) are cosmetic and easily added either at the factory or after market. Im pretty sure that genuine Alpinas have a different start to their chassis number too, but Im not certain. The true worth of the 740 is an awful lot less than they want. Remember a genuine B12 (one of only several hundred in the world) sold for 5k a few months ago. Its was LHD like most Alpinas and wasnt registered which didnt help its price, but it was the real deal.

Yep, get the VW from that little list. Are those the only four you can choose from ? Or is it anything upto about 46k ?
