I have a bare staggered set. No throwing stars. What are you looking to pay for a set?
-
QQL2 is on a Rolls now which had the plate GHO57. So must have been a BMW Demo car?

Mates at a wedding. Nice bridal car.

I was probably one of those delivering the rental car to your door in the early 2000's. I had a mini motorbike I would throw in the boot. Deliver the car then ride my motorbike to pick up another. Was a sweet gig. At night I would bring cars down to central London from Milton Keys at a very very rapid pace. We had a couple of RS6's as VIP delivered within 30min specials.

The new Burn Your Dollars Shark 6. A 2700kg EV Ute with a GVM of exactly 3500kgs to avoid it being a Light Commercial Truck. It will pay the same RUC as a Nissan Leaf. They arrived in country this week.

I don't think my riding gear will ever not smell of it after that run. They have announced next years run and it should be huge.

Good question. It doesn't make sense. I must have been thinking something and typed that instead. But I can't remember what I was meant to type now..

Yet I would still rather hang out with those dickheads over the current social media nepotists somehow.

I was seriously looking into an S85 + DCT for my E34 before I moved back to NZ. My issue became having space to collate the parts and strip vehicles from co-part. And then I wasn't sure if there would be anyone back here that could help. Especially down in the lower North Island. I would still love to do it. But not with the $ at where it is. Nor would I buy the parts in NZ where a DCT costs the same as an entire car from co-part. So I will just putt around with the M30 for a bit.

I am going to go with B12's or similar for my commuter once she reaches 200k. So prob another 4 months'ish. Where did you pick yours up from? Did you still just go with fronts only? I plan to do a full set and so far spareto looks to be the cheapest with shipping.

Non car things over the weekend. Small bikes instead. Massive amount of fun. Syds Run 2024 in Christchurch. A charity run for leukemia in the name of the guy who started this event. Syd. 560 odd scooters and small CC bikes. I've been two years in a row now. Syds 100th Birthday (RIP) would have been next year. They reckon there is going to well over 600 bikes this time. Buy a sh*t bike, chuck on your battle jacket and join the fun. Live your Pest Life. I have a 1978 Yamaha Chappy LB80 which is a laugh.

Spareto.com has nearly all the same parts as ECS and FCP however spareto's shipping is usually more realistic. I think the build thread for that car is on here somewhere. Should be good fun. -
They chase you for plates these days. If the car is de-registered or re-registered they want the plates back. If you don't hand them back in you get a $200 fine.
-
I actually have no idea what that would cost. But I do know that I couldn't afford the cars I have if I had to have a mechanic do the work.

This is really apparent on Reddit r/bmw r/mercedes Many of the posts are about interior LED lights and other absolute junk like door projectors that we use to buy from supercheap in the early 2000's. Gone are the days of soft ambient interior lighting. Now you get RGB lighting like a bloody teenagers computer case.
