I forgot... they don't have to pay for any Treaty claims, either. What is the opportunity cost in terms of hospitals or roads of that money that iwi now looks after? Meanwhile the farmer bashing has started up which is just odd, I know the data moves around a bit but is clear NZ has some of the most environmentally friendly dairy farms (the sheep and beef farms are tops too) in the world. If you cut production or move to introduce other limits, the market won't accept having less product but will turn to more environmentally damaging sources. Any talk of NZ dairy not being "sustainable" is misuse of the word. What this country needs is less government, not more. A monolithic bureaucracy like the UK is not a path to success. We cannot tax ourselves to success, Norway only works because of their oil. The Taxpayers Union figured out government manages to waste 30c out of every $1 they are budgeted for, before they begin to do whatever it is they are supposed to do; National rightly identified huge scope for bloated ministries to tighten their belts. Socialism can only work if it limits itself and lets capitalism get on with it- that is my theory anyway, socialism has failed every single time it has been tried so I can't be sure. Anyway bed time for me... busy day tomorrow, I am training the cows to all line up backwards and sh*t into the river at once.

This is because 1) their government taxes the bejeezus out of them and 2) they didn't just say no more drilling for oil, oil royalties have made them an insane amount of cash

It is a bargain... but I have 4 cars, and a 5th would entail divorce! Not quite sure why this hasn't sold yet, but good luck.

You might like to provide photos of the area needing repair. These cars are plentiful enough that if we are not able to easily see the repair is minor, the vast majority will just move on to a non-rusty car without a second thought.

Dude needs a go-kart. The 370Z is way too big for that skinny little "track", it's longer than the track is wide.

Aston Martin is making good money recreating this look. Come on, BMW!

Last year I looked at re-gassing the ones in my E39 touring with a company here in Tauranga, it worked out cheaper to import new OEM Stabilus units. So there you go, hows that for conflicting stories Do your homework is all I'd suggest.

Hey thanks for that, very helpful. GLWS, it is very shiny

Random question... how much does it weigh? Having trouble finding the weights of standard shifters so I can compare to ZHP and other weighted knobs.

Gobsmacked. This is news to me (not that I know anything), so you are saying that in any crash where the airbags deploy, all the airbags, associated wiring computers and sensors need replacing, or "just" the airbags?

Nice one Bryce. Is it Glacier Blue?

I bought in some with FCPEuro maybe 2 years ago, turned up in the usual ~6 days. No issues.

The numbers would favour electric cars much more if only the Krauts would stop culling their nuclear power plants. Nice article anyway.

Everyone knows the best E39s have 6 cylinders

I am guessing you could go completely mad with this thing and it will only run you the cost of several months maintenance on the E60, will be watching with interest!

I am a little concerned about the breach of privacy aspect... but yes I did consider picking it up to retrieve the engine for someone

So this just got a bit surreal, received a few messages yesterday from the site manager who looks after the construction zone this POS landed in saying "Hi Colin, got your contact details from the police, when will you be along to pick up your car? Also there will be extra costs involved. Thanks!"

How much is too much for a low km E36? Try this... PS if you see it, like it and proceed to buy it, I accept commission in a number of different currencies, just ask.

Went into Coombes Johnson one day just as the parts manager got off the phone from pricing up a tail light for a Prado, heard him muttering something like "...f**king ridiculous" under his breath ? I notice Toyota has "voluntarily" undergone a, erm... pricing review on their dealership spare parts inside China, the Chow government ran a review on prices from foreign owned companies in various areas inside their economy and invited Toyota to reconsider.

Is that an E30 thing, meaning acres of rust? ?

Oh noes, you had to buy two more BMWs, how sad ? they sound like great deals!

That aftermarket strap holding the bumper will be holding the value back....

Flippin awesome! And also... You tried to drift, didn't you? I'm out! *mic drop*

Yep so it is in the top echelon of Anti-Millennial-Thief Devices!

My TradeMe ad might be a bit sh*t but these guys are really showing how it isn't done!
