  1. Or trademe community board. What a joke. I recommend the younger crowd organize their own meet. From experience I have found then only young people turn up, funny that. Always a good time too.
  2. Anyone who wears or owns a HSV polar fleece needs assassinating. If the capital of New Zealand was West Auckland and not Wellington, it would of been a great choice.
  3. New Zealand politics is actually very much respected world wide. I also don't think what cars our MP's get driven around in makes f*** all difference to how other countries view us.
  4. It's like a X5 with different badges

    E30 Burnouts

    Limmet's car ( at least one of them ) seems to end up in every e30 burnout compilation on youtube.
  6. If you dont have enough money for a lawyer, like i recommended before, and you think you are genuinely innocent, write a letter explaining the situation clearly and give it to the duty solicitor as soon as you can get hold of one on the day at court. The duty solicitor will read this to the judge for you, stating that you wrote the letter, which at least proves to the judge you are literate, and then the judge will question you. I did this one time when I was done for careless driving ( managed to slide through a 4 way intersection on my back after coming off a bike ) and it worked really well, they really appreciated someone trying to help themselves out. Please dont turn up to court with a flat cap and a FOX hoody, because you will go to jail. ha. And dont lie, to your lawyer or the judge, because that is just plain stupid. If you are guilty, bend over.
  7. If you are not talking bullshit, and you think you are actually innocent.. get a lawyer. If you are trying to get out of being a wanker, get a lawyer anyway. Personal experience tells me this.
  8. When I smashed it I put a mint sump on it. I think that's the one he smashed.
  9. I just wrote you a pm about this. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.
  10. 7 series ones work too, 728i. Cant remember what shape 7 series though, wouldn't be hard to find out.
  11. That is such an epic deal, why hasn't this sold I dont know.
  12. Yep, should be all good. Just block off the breather hole or it will leak diff fluid everywhere.

    Fool

    Contrary to popular belief, it seems most people on here think you are simply f***ed, there is a way to keep your license, if you are not a complete flatpeak wearing idiot. ( not saying you are ) If you are serious about fighting it, get a lawyer. I got done for sustained loss of traction when i was 18, the cop literally came around the corner as I was arking it up and caught me in the middle of it, and I got a lawyer and got the charge let down to careless driving from sustained loss of traction. Then I got diversion with the careless driving. Sustained loss of traction I guess would be treated in a simular way street racing, so give it a shot if you are that desperate. I basically just tried to come across as not the usual idiot, i'm a uni student, i have goals in life other than just leaving black lines on the street, wanted to go place, blah blah, and in the end I think the lawyer just spoke to the police prosecutor and got me on diversion. I didn't even have to step foot in the court. She called me one day and just gave me the time I had to go to the diversion office. It cost me about $600, but I got totally let off. I think it was $600 well spent too, because I needed my license. This happened in Tauranga too, I cant remember the name of the lawyer, but the office was really close to the court. Just around the corner. If you are interested, I could possibly find the address. Just my 2c.
  14. I quite enjoyed this one too http://www.audiforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=80267
  15. My father was a 747 captain for Air NZ and now works for the CAA. A few years ago I asked him if it would be worth it for me to try get into the business, he told me university was a better option because it is just so competitive and the industry is changing so fast. It certainly isn't impossible, but if you want to fly the real planes you will have to do a fair bit of flying on an ave wage for Eagle or Mount Cook Air first. I suppose it depends if you are in it for the money, or just for the flying
  16. I'm just going to get to the point, THAT CAR ROCKS.
  17. Didn't bother because it stayed fine at the correct temp. That fan when I had it kept it perfectly cool in hot as temps last summer. That airleak must of been causing all the issues.
  18. What happened to the electric fan that was on it? When I drove that car just after I put the m50 in it would get hot with no fan, so definitely put one back in if the one I put in has gone walk about.
  19. Also, when they are stuck on, if i turn the key off when they are sitting perfectly at the bottom of the wiper windshield ( if i turn the key off at any other point they just stop where ever ) then when i turn the key on they wont start up again until i flick the stalk. This just causes them to be stuck on again.
