Ditto 😂 Been watching 330ci and 325ci e46 for a while now. Few conversions pop up every now and then. People asking fairly tall figures...

Seats look super comfy. Not much going for it otherwise.

518... Didn't know such a thing existed. Why would you order a big sedan with a teeny engine?

When ever my car starts feeling slow I get a mechanic service. They give me a loaner and after 10 minutes driving whatever pos that might be my car feels awesome again.

Very pretty car! Crate engines... still two values per cylinder and pushrods?

Would bin the m5 badge 😂

I do wonder about all the electronic driver aid sh*t in cars produced these days...

Low k's sure but what has it been doing... Sitting in a shed?

Dug out my thread here Place in Auckland was Robinson's Instruments.

Hey 993. I don't have his details sorry. I had this issue a year or two ago. Tried pixel fix and the online guides and made a mess. Took mine to an outfit in Auckland but that won't help you much. Turns out the panel from pixel fix was doa in any case. Think the other option is to recode a second hand one that's working but that's a bandaid fix. Good luck.

back down to $25k...

Yes my son bought one. Think he paid 8.5.

e30 325 re-listed for $30k at Rose city. Sure this was for sale at $25k the other week.

What motor would you swap in...

Not sure I fully understand this comment. I have been to shops that have installed a new part (from whatever supplier they use). Part has crapped out shortly after. Yes they have replaced the part but they still charge you labour to do it so no difference.

Price seems realistic though - or maybe I have just been conditioned 😂

But it is another 4 cylinder and not a coupe 😞

Yeah... Seems these early direct injection engines have crazy expensive injectors. Spareto has "vemo" brand for E234 a pop. Otherwise BWM brand for E475!

Saw this How sh*t is the n43? The internet would suggest quite... Bit of a plain jane interior also.

Dureseal... Didn't we used to cover our school books with that stuff?

Car is for sale maybe ?

Not as crazy as some of the others in this thread 🤣

Did this sell?

Bellars Auckland North shore is the same - sign on the wall. I have a local mechanic that does my work and they will use parts I supply but when I first asked they weren't exactly keen 🙂 I've always imagined a profit margin in the parts dept right - they buy at a discount but charge customer full ticket so they would be missing that component perhaps.

I feel like the search options don't always capture detail like they used to... Seems people enter their rego and just go with whatever the lazy border data was. I'm looking for a e46 coupe at present and often find them listed in 330i or 325i - not 330ci or 325ci. Even searching by number of doors doesn't seem to work...
