No probs mate , that was my first time at the show and i was pretty surprised that it was nearly as good as the Concourse.

Wow a Daimler 250 , i love the sound of these. That is one mint looking example mate , apparently the Turner V8's are lighter than the XK units in their Jaguar counterparts.

Hey guys/gals pictures from the day are available at the link below:

Ive always liked the products of Coventry and was happy to see them well represented at the Galaxy of Cars. My favourite being the race spec XJ6 S2.

And of course, the E-Type

Mmm thats what i was going to say. Supercharge it

Though , i think they should have run a turbo set up , these engines have a very low 8.5:1 comp ratio. Though low on horsepower (168hp),and 292NM of torque, almost the same torque as a 3.5l M30 AT 305NM.

New Brake rotors and pads for my 1990 e32 , anyone know how much they cost?. Tq

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone here has upgraded their E28 front seats with some from other models and if so what was involved?

The frame on my drivers seat is cracking so I have the option of trying to get it welded, replacing the framing, or putting some others in.

My car has a sort or tan / cream coloured wool fabric so I'd have to find something similar.

Has anybody fitted E34, E30, or E36 seats and if so what was involved and what did it cost?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers.

Hey mate , why don't you try Wellington Pick a Part, there should be a e28 there at some stage. We always get e28s in our Pick a Parts up here. Just untill last month there was a e28 with full leather interior in ok nick. Pick a Part only charges $150 for complete leather interior and includes the door panels and roof lining.

Happy Christmas to all.

Andodized color valve cap covers.....

Lol ! im surprised no one mentioned the go fast stripes, obviously a contributor to the car's increased "cc power". Though im glad it does have those ultra bright lights front and back to blind us from looking at it.

You win!

Not chrome, wheels that are chrome are plated. BBS RS' dishes are polished. Very nice. Cant wait to get my RS' sorted, gonna cost heaps. Will look awsome on a black M3.

Looks really good mate, nice and original. Ive got only a 735il now but i'll get one of those as well once im finished with my studies. Are you planing to leave it original or modify it?

Looking fantastic I love the colour!

Hey mate , the 34 and the 23 looks really good. I still havent gotten over selling those wheels. I hope you get all the looks the car deserves now.

Hey mate , as listed 900 or best offer so open to close offers. There are two others that are similarly kerbed, the wheels were on a car driven by the wife of the guy i bought it off, not noticeable from a distance though. Im in east Auckland, Pakuranga. You can text me at 021 062 1685. Im at uni during the day on weekdays, so after-hours or weekend is best if you need to call. Cheers.

For sale is a set of four genuine AC Schnitzer alloys made by Ronal off my e32. These wheels were originally off a e39 so the hub centre is different to most other 5 and 7 series, but ive got a set of hub centre locating rings to go with the set. Naturally being used its got kerb/scuff marks. I would like $900 or best offer. Tyres are good , the only reason they are off my car is because i want to look for a set of wheels or my VW Jetta. Tyres are 234/45/17 at the front and 255/40/17 at the rears.

Hey mate , tyres aren't particularly flash Nankangs at the back and Lutons at the front, i will try and get closer pics of the wheels soon. Personally i would change the front tyres even though they've got lots of tread, i only changed them cos the old front tyres were pretty shot when got them .

Hi, got my 1982 520I for sale, M20B20 with Bosch K-Jetronic injection with 4speed manual. Good for parts or restoration, main problems are rust on A-Pillars , around the boot and left front sill, also hole in exhaust pipe.

Was going to restore it myself, not actually too much work if you know what you doing (Believe me, my old Mercedes had its whole firewall rusted out. ). I am selling as i need to buy an economical car because my current daily driver is a 735il. I would like $450 for it. Maybe drivable, battery is totally flat.

Hey everyone,

Has any one experienced their instrument cluster malfunctioning while driving.

Well, i have an e32 735il and twice have i experienced the instrument cluster failing while driving and then working normally after switching off then starting the car after a while.

I have done the obvious and tried hitting it but , that only worked when the speed gauge was failing and would eventually work.

Like i said now its been twice that everything stoped. Though the indicator telltale and fog light telltale's seem to work fine .

Help!

Hi new member here.

I need some help, the front left indicator of my E32 735il is not working . Ive had a look and the bulb is fine but im assuming its a problem common to the e32's. Also everytime i indicate left the side and rear indicators work but flicker twice as fast. Help!

Thanks guys ill get on to it once this shite weather calms down.

LOL, I knew it would be alot louder than a standard exhaust when I had it put it, but its just getting on my nerves now.

I barely passed a WOF last time round because they said it was almost too loud, I didn't buy it for the "extra power" - because there isn't any, I just liked the twin tip look.

I'll hit up a few places if I have time later in the week!

Yea hi,

Perhaps you should consider a twin tip muffler with a bigger box with perhaps the same tip diameter . This is because

i was told that the sound comes from a low [muffler : tip] ratio. A bigger box perhaps, hopefully someone could verify this cos i might do the same thing for my E32 its got the same issues as well.

Hope this helps.

Gidday mate and welcome, post up some picks

Hi geez that was quick response. Here are the pics anyway.

Hello,

The name is Dinesh and i've just registered on this forum and would like to introduce myself.

I had just recently purchased a 1990 BMW 735Il after owning a Volvo 240 then a Mercedes-Benz 230CE.

So far im loving the Bmw, ive always wanted a Bmw but been detered by high maintanence costs ,

but hell with it this time. My favorite BMW's excluding the E32 are the E34 which ill only have with the 4.0lt M60 engine,

but of course i cant afford it at this time.

Anyway saying hi to all the members out there who roll in style.

Things to do to my car soon. Lowered front & Dechrome Maybe.
