Thats some nice car for the money, congrats.

Niceeee! That is pure sex on wheels.

Like the state of NZs economy? correct me if I am wrong but we need the govt to bring out their expansionary fiscal policy where tax (direct & indirect) will increase (tax cuts in other words), and transfer payments increase also. This spurs and stimulates economic activity by increasing aggregate demand for goods and service. People will hopefully save more and therefore be able to invest their money after necessary goods are consumed, put money back into business (which is the same as bailing out the private sector as the US govt had to do)(because the crash is basically over now), which results in economic growth and decrease the ill effect of the worlds upcoming recession. Sort of like a mini bailout. Then wait for the next crash in 8-11 years. (edit) Sorry if I'm speaking out of my arse.

Thanks for that Graham. Looking forward to doing mine anytime in the next 250 years.

Haha, so true!

Thats right, I think its called the Juglar cycle. We are in the crises right now, recession is coming, next recovery then expansion, then repeats itself. Key will (probably) get us through the recession, everyone will hate him because its a recession, and Labour will get the next term.

Cool video. Love the slow motion- the Porsche looked awesome drifting slowmo.

National. Firstly, NZ needs a change, just like the US. Key has had much more experience in the real world (raised a family, very successful sharebroker etc.), so I think he will understand the general population better than Helen (who only works off the textbook). Who gives a s*** if Key didn't declare his buying into Transrail or whatever it is, he has the brains, aptitude and he could see the oppurtunity (I realise that he says he lost money on it, but hes come from nowhere to being worth what? $50million), would you not rather someone running the country with some aggression, understanding, and awareness of micro/macro economics- sounds like just the person we need to run the country after the friggin idiots in the US didn't pass the bailout soon enough. Wait for the sudden rediculous policy that Labour will bring out that they will never be able to live up to (just like last elections), because they are desperate.

Happy Birthday Jochen!

The seals don't do much in heavy rain, the water should run down into the drain pipes, you need to check that the drains are not blocked and actually connected properly.

Bahaha, thinks he's some kind of professional artist. He should keep it on the paper.

Yep, as Graham said, red window stain. I used a white knight glass stain where the lid is the approx. colour. White knight clear acrylic for clear coat.

I've had it done to mine for ages now and never had a problem with the 5-0 or VTNZ testing stations (twice). Definitely a cheap but worthwhile mod.

Yea, no moorings at Snells 'cept for that big catamaran that was moored there ages ago. Water is up to my neck at low tide at dads boat in algies though. Ross, that rear kit is very nice, smooth and simple and definitely complements the 'verts lines.

Oh yup, cheers Jeddy. NZ Herald still gives $38.4mil mind, though they are sensationalists. Yeah, just seen no tax on winnings, though you still pay tax for anything else you decide to do afterwards. Could always hide it in the attic.

You are probably right, its too late to think Doesn't each line come with its own powerball number?

You have to get 6 numbers right out of 40, then independently get 1 of the 10 numbers drawn for powerball. So if odds of that are 1 in 38,383,800 then you play that many times per week, then only theoretically you will win. 738150 years because 38,383,800/52 weeks equals 738150.

That tide goes out for miles. My Dad lives at Algies Bay, its a little steeper for boats etc.

So I was wondering how many Bimmersporters are going to play Lotto this weekend, seems a good time to ask as it is a record $24,000,000 jackpot! I have worked out the odds of winning: 49!/6!(40!-6!) * 10 = 38,383,800 So if odds are 1 in 38,383,800 and you buy one ticket a week, theoretically you will have to wait 738150 years to win! Although I will be buying one as I would happily recieve 24 big ones in my bank account, no matter how much tax would be deducted. Imagine 1.5mil interest P.A.!

Pleased you found what you were looking for. Sounds like a good car! Never heard of a manual e34 530i. I will be expecting those pics in 3 weeks

Not the Beamer R80!!

I know someone this year who paid $45 for 1 hour with a tutor So I offered to tutor her for $25, and it is only 6th form Maths and a bit of Physics/Chem.

Awesome, just awesome.

Very very true. Good spotting bmw3, keep us posted!

Welcome to BS Ross, Nice car, is it you that I have seen at Snells Beach a couple of times?
