Use a flat head screwdriver and tap it with a hammer, should crack it free

He bought it on the lensos

Before you let me take it for a spin of course

Reversing longer than necessary?!

Seems to be genuine? http://www.carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=su8523 Hmm would be keen to check this out

Wow, awesome score! Thinking of getting one myself in the near future

A spray on leather cleaner from repco etc should take care of it

How much did you end up getting it for? If you don't mind sharing

Did they do a load test at Repco?

Would be a lot of fun..

I know the perfect fix...boost.

Could take the wheels off

Wrong thread dude

I've previously used Darren McKillop from Auto-Car-Tel and was extremely happy with the valuation. Extremely thorough and has a great knowledge of cars in general. Based in Auckland. Their phone number is 09 576 1558

Is there a foam seal under that plastic cowling direct below the windscreen? It's common for the foam seal to deteriorate and water to leak into the cabin for a lot of other makes, not too sure about the e39 but worth a look? Similar to the foam seal in this thread http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?1334705-DIY-Replacing-the-windshield-cowl

Ferrari 599

Yeah, used Redline MTL 75w80 too in my old E30. Shifts became noticeably smoother. If you can get it at trade price from bnt it's not bad at all

I had a similar problem recently with a turbo integra I had a few months ago. NAC initially valued it at $6000 but the guy on the phone was a gc and suggested getting it valuated by an independent valuer. I ended up going with Darren fron Auto-car-tel, he had a good look over the car and looked at the extensive amount of receipts that I had and valued it at $16k which I was extremely happy with. NAC happily agreed on the price after this. Valuation only costed around the $80 mark from memory

Davies motors (holden dealership in Manukau) sells them. They're a distributor of Nice products. Have a browse through the catalogue, they usually have everything in stock. http://davie.co.nz/?id=202

Low? Doesn't look very low at all?
