Driftit

Good to hear. Yeah AJ's E30 was great. He used the build to teach his workers.

AJ @ Pitstop in Albany will be happy to do all that if you can get it out there. Close friend of mine. Has done a lot of work for Bimmersporters over the years. He can also organize to have the Driveshaft built either by ADL or Driveline. Saves you running around. Genuine car guy too. He loves/hates E30's. He still misses his 1UZ powered E30 he built.

My E34 has a good Crunch Stick. Especially into 3rd at the red line.

Quite literally rolled bowled and assholed.

Is that when you go and play Frisbee at lunch time?

I love their BS excuse that their camera's can't read the non official font. 110% bullshit. The system can pretty much read anything. All they are doing is protecting a monopoly they have a contract with.

This post lead me to spot another one. https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1747390051.htm Dec 1999 323ci Coupe NZ NEW * appreciating E46 model Appreciating huh. Not the 323 sorry.

Haha wow. Though this day in age there is bound to be some muppet out there who will pay that.

Oh god. It is very basic. Be very very sure it works. Mine wouldn't turn off a couple of times.

Hmm yeah, whom's cert standards haha. This could be easy. Or really damn expensive. Does the price reflect the quality? Or does he just need a quick sale.

Hard to tell with near zero information. From what I can see from the pics all the parts are cheap stuff. I would want to know what has been done to the engine to support the turbo. That stock radiator doesn't give me confidence. Also if it is certified or not. Doesn't mention it and that is a pretty important part.

Would you like to swap. Currently around 85% humidity. And will be around 35deg C today. With a lovely feels like temp of 41deg C. Breathing outside is a chore let alone any outdoor activity. Pretty much the entire city is hiding indoors. The air is thick and there is no breeze. I can't even brag about the embassy pool which you all pay for. It is like a warm bath.

I almost forgot these ugly mini trucks are top sellers in NZ. It's either the old Aussie ute or a proper yank truck for me.

No thanks. I prefer marbles or bottle caps to cash...

Haha. Wow. You would need to find a very strange Bimmer enthusiast to buy that one. That is one of the most elderly person specd E30's I have seen for quite a while.

I tired for months to get them to admit responsibility. I got nothing from them. $200 wasn't worth my time. But I hope that I have caused them to lose well over $200 with bad publicity. I'm all for people warning each other of sh*t service. NZ is rife with it. Even if you still use the service you are now aware that there could be an issue.

TBH I hear nothing but complaints about it state side. And they lost $200 worth of my stuff due to not updating their address. That's enough for me to warn others about the service.

Driven the Jag? It should not even be on your list.

Those are reps. Can still get them new on ebay.

Good to hear. As for agreed value, did you have to have the car appraised?

I stopped using youshop when they had moved premises but didn't update their web page or inform anyone.. A few items were never seen again. Kiwishipping have always been great. However their prices have increased quite a bit recently. I'm using a freight forwarder out of Baltimore at the moment. But I have to hand the goods to them in Bodymore itself. They are cheap. I will ask if they will accept mailed orders next time I am up there.

Not the housing market. The NZD bubble. It already has. How far it will fall will be interesting.

As sad is this sounds. I am hoping to take advantage of the masses of over leveraged people that are only just keeping themselves afloat in the good times.

Yep I have been waiting around for the bubble to burst. I would love to see it go back to 2009 numbers before I return.

I am very happy about this. Sorry guys.
