  1. Dad took my E30 there twice for the same job. First time the f**ked up the front screen seals. Allowing water in which filled up my glovebox with water. To fix it the poo'd up the gap with black silicon and didn't bother to clean the huge mess they made. If we added up all the hours my Dad has sat there waiting I would say it would be over 10hours for 3 jobs which were meant to take 1.5hours each. The job done by Novus was great though. Though the glue for the rear view mirror didn't set the first time.

    When the vending machine at work was filled up and all the drinks are warm and you didn't know When you put you warm vending machine drink in the work fridge to cool down and someone drinks it before you get back. One more cyclist poke. Why would you put yourself and your family at risk on NZ's roads knowing full well how poorly skilled and highly distracted a large majority of drivers are? Get a mountain bike and hit some trails. Better to hit a tree and fall off than to be hit and dragged under a truck.
  3. Robs selling his beast. Has hardly seen the road. But is an amazing amount of car for the money. http://www.trademe.co.nz/873798053
  4. Too slow. Would rather this. http://www.trademe.co.nz/873798053

    I have a negative attitude towards road cyclists I admit. But I can honestly say MOST cyclists I see are not following our road rules in one way or another. Just like MOST motorcyclists I see are not following our road rules. It is not a minority ruining it for the majority in my opinion.
  6. Hey guys, As in the title. After some factory rear top shock mounts in good condition. Cheers, Dan 0211 88 77 33
  7. Can do you my 530d Motorsport for 16500. High Kms but NZ New and full service history. And diesel so it doesn't matter. Leaves the petrol for dead off the line.
  8. Bit gutless. You should go for a 530d. They are great. Few in your price range.
  9. Living 6 mins from work during peak traffic. In Auckland.
  10. Has to be bearings huh as it is the same body at a glance. Pretty sure it was big end knock.
  11. Spent two hours sitting in traffic from Albany to a mates in Beachlands in the E30 last night. All my maintenance efforts paid off and it didn't breakdown. She ran like a dream when really it should have broken down being a E30. Didn't die from eating local takeaways out there. Good night.

    They are made by VAG. The new expressway South doesn't bypass Hamilhole. Nobody wants to go through that place.

    Anything made by VAG group. Unless you supply VAG parts aka Money Printing business.
  14. Spotted a nice 4 door E46 on white colored rims in Tirau. And a nice silver/grey Tech 2 E30 with a plate like 325im between Ekatahuna and Masterton.

    Audi drivers. Everyone hates you but nobody is jealous. Think about that.

    I never have time for my race car because of other sh*t I have to do. f**k other sh*t.
  17. Nice E34 that parks outside my work on Corban Ave in Albany some days. Will snap a pic when I can. On a negative though. PFL E39 540i around Torbay area. Young guy driving. It is the worst sounding V8 BMW I have ever heard. Loud as hell. If anyone knows this guy please inform him of how bad his car sounds. E.g. I would rather be driving a 4cyl Toyota Altezza with a Chinese made fart cannon on the back.
  18. Name a motoring/entertainment show you would rather watch.
  19. They should just to stick it to the BBC for caving to the PC brigade.
  20. Never heard of Guy Martin and Chris Evans is a PC douche. Goodbye Top Gear.
  21. Only reason people didn't like the Peugeot segment was because nobody likes Peugeots. There is a difference between past its prime, needing a refresh and dieing with everyone that made it what it was walking away. You lot obviously haven't seen old Top Gear with Tiff. Dry as weetbix. A public apology and compensation for the man who was slapped would have been enough. But the PC pandering society got behind it.
  22. E30 F30 and E90(Motorsport or M3 only) are my votes. E36 and E46 are Europes Corolla. Just too many of them around. Good runarounds though.
  23. The hard shift down to 1st seems to be a common fault in the E60's. On occasion ours does it after sitting in creeping traffic. Is apparently a sign of the car spending most of its life in traffic. Common for a lot of Jap cars. We have an E60 530D and my father has a W211 E55 AMG. And unless you have the suspension set to Sport 2 I find the Merc wallows a little too. But the E60 feels a lot cheaper than the E55. Must be material quality. The AMG seats are also much much better than the E60 sport seats.
