And so it begins, the breaking and fixing of itself....

Is this really cheap? It's an E34 with slightly hight KMs (Doesn't mean anything to me, just 99% of others) so I thought this would be about right?

This thread is all about photos. My personal preference would have been white mirrors, factory or not. P.S You need some rims, black steels look rude!

Fronts are easy, rears are vaginas.

Ok Graham, my comment was in regards to years ago when they were one in the same, these days they still share alot of their aspects, they still look quite alike, not identical but quite alike. Completey different companies now yes. The Bentley was differentiated from its Rolls Royce sibling by its simpler and lighter front grille. The other point of difference to attract comment was said to result from the lower production cost of the Bentley grille. In October 1966, the saloon's pretax 'list price' of GBP 5375 undercut that of the Rolls-Royce by GBP 50. The Bentley, being technically an identical twin of the Rolls-Royce, seems to have been bought mostly by owners wishing a little more understatement. The formerly more sporting image of Bentley motor cars differing from Rolls-Royces was gone by the time the Silver Shadow/Bentley T was introduced and thus couldn't motivate buyers any more. "For a while Bentley´s sporting character has been as absent and as lamented as [deceased racing driver] Mr Seaman. The last batches of Bentleys have, to be rather frank, been a little hard to distinguish from their Rolls-Royce stablemates" was the opinion of Archie Vicar in the Motorist´s Illustrated Digest (Dec 1965).The same correspondent gave the car a favourable review, especially in comparison to its Rolls-Royce stablemate. The outward appearance of a Bentley is slightly more dynamic because the bonnet design is a few centimetres lower and the radiator shell shape with its rounded edges is smoother. In addition, the badging on wheel covers, boot lid and gauges featured Bentley motifs rather than Rolls-Royce ones

Yes and then I thought there just is no point in arguing with YOU. Free world however, you can believe what ever you like

Sorry sorry, forgot who i was speaking to.... Ha how foolish of me.

They did with the one in NZ.

Different offset, will hit your struts.

Believe me, they are still very alike.

^^Haha^^ F10 is the most safest car on the planet at the moment. This is two F10s now that have had very serious accidants and had the occupants walk away from.

700nm and a supercharger whine are all very good things, just depends on what vehicle they come with.

That looks sweeeeeet!

That's media for you Vincent, just ridiculas really!

Basically one in the same really, few differences now days but still very much alike.

Looks very tidy, nice job.

Well we'll probably do all of two Rolls.

Everyone has their own tastes but these just look fugly.

8K seems fair, I wouldn't think you would have a problem at that price.$435,000 seems a bit steep though.

Even though KMs aren't a problem also people still go on about it, something else that really gets to me, NZ is the ONLY country that worries about KMs. So that may work against you unfortunatley, not too many 320d Motorsports around, mostly petrol like you say so that will work with you.Couldn't say what it would be worth really, if it were auto I would almost offer you something as my partner is due our first in a couple of months and her E30 needs to be put down I think. What sort of price were you thinking?

It wasn't soposed to come out negative, can we still be friends I get your point and that's fine, people just go on about reliability issues which is bollocks, I see imports every day which have nil issues and are in just as good if not better condition. Some imports have history and some don't, I can see where this puts people off, my 530 (Singapore) and M3 (Jap) had no history but have had the M3 engine in bits and was golden inside and had the rocker covers off the 530 and was pretty much the same, this may have been luck or not, most of the imports at work were the same, some were quite bad but that is mostly with the N generation engines, the NZ N generation engines are also like that too.

Get over the whole import thing, i've owned quite a few cars with only one being NZ new, the imports (jap) are actually better spec'd than most NZ new ones. They have all the same problems NZ new one have. The guys are the same at work, they were all like, eww import BMWs, now one owns a Jap E53 X5 4.4 and the other now has a Jap E46 320i Motorsport and couldn't be happier with them. No problems with either.

Very easy to replace on a coupe, 20min tops.

320 moves forwards.

Look where he is......
