Had a similar thing happen to me many moons ago. Had an extremely hostile fat lady and a wannabe tough guy turn up to take my car. All over a speeding fine that had already been paid a year or so before. Not once did I receive any letters or phone calls. All my data was correct. Nothing worse than having to deal with collection scum. Then having to prove yourself innocent to them. Fat slag did her best to not let me talk to the courts too. They wanted the car or cash. I had already paid the police long before it was somehow sent to the courts.

WTF!! Hahaha well he is dreaming then. You can get a non f**ked one for that price. I did.

Sounds like it has had a ton of rust. And looks like it sits outside on the Lawn. Might be a few dreamers out there thinking they are going to make moonbeams off it.

Motronic 1.1 are common. 1.3 are expensive.

These are the same across the entire E30 range FYI. Your better off talking to Ray from HellBM for an AFM. As they are usually more than $150 and hard to find.

www.kiwishipping.co.nz - I brought 3 M62/S62 6 speed manual boxes over for a $130USD total. For small stuff use NZ post who now has a US office.

Fakes at that price?

Got my Mrs an Xperia U for her bday in July. She loves it. Typical great Sony camera too.

Race in the V8s then. Bet you don't even finish.

At first I was meh Stanceworks. Then I was hmmm 2002 But then I was sh*t this belongs on Rangiworks Nice result. But the amount of times the guy missed rust and had to go back and fix it frustrated the hell out of me. And it was all in common places. That car would not be allowed on NZ roads however. Some pretty rangi mods. This looks better

LTE Connectivity. The I5's best feature. LTE is NOT currently in NZ and is a few years away.

Anyone know the 1 series with the plate LOSBMW. Just saw it get written off by a young chick who pulled out in front of it on Rosedale Road in Albany.

Yeah jump start drive through is nearly 1 min long plus what ever it did after that lol. Came out about 1 and 3/4's of a lap down. Make sure you have the clutch in when you put it in gear on the start line.

Doing a bit of iracing if anyone is keen. Look me up. Dan Rollason.

There is a new free to play racing game coming very soon. Demo is available on steam. Its called RaceRoom Racing experience and has a wicked hill climb BMW coming. http://game.raceroom.com/ TBH the physics are much better in Raceroom and its only a Beta Demo.

Aj's one just sold for around $13K. Was massive amount of fun. Would have been even better in an BMW vert. Not a fan of Boxters. They look down syndrome.

If this is true. The car is illegal. So careful how you proceed. The last thing you want to muck around with is someone elses fraudulent activity.

The Sony head units look good. They are black with red lighting. So match the rest of the car. For the garage door mod are you just going to pull apart a existing door remote or are you going to buy or build a programmable one? I think I have a whole heap of these switches at home. Will have a look tonight. I'm just in Milford these days.

I have it. Just had no time to play it recently. Will give it a go again tonight maybe. Have a motor to put back together though so might be later on.

The previous owner didn't build up this car. He was just unlucky enough to buy it thinking it was a real M3. Crash was just good timing for him. Though I bet the insurance company would also be gutted to find out it was not a real M3. Cause I bet that's what was claimed on. Also check in the other thread that the car did have engine issues of some sort.

It is interesting reading about the Mk5 Golf recommendations. What is the servicing costs like? A friend of mine works for Qualitat who are one of the main suppliers for VW and Audi parts. He continuously jokes about the ridiculous service bills for what he calls Europe's Corolla. He has mentioned that they have common problems which are very expensive. I have very little interest in anything VW so don't pay much attention. But this seems to be a common topic when work comes up in convo. Would be something I would research though.

BMW. Almost guaranteed this is what he is doing. antil33t got it. In a petrol you do not legally require an odometer. Though if you are changing the odo then you can get them set by a calibration specialist. Helps when you are trying to sell the car if there are no dips and dives on the odo check from AA or the like.

Could get a real M325 for less than that. 2door>4door

When I was 15 this is how we use to rice up our cars too. But with actual duraseal for books. Police made us rip it off back then too. These days its no doubt a green sticker.

Haha gold. And I know someone who is Marrying someone just like you have described.
