  1. In NZ I have a feeling that ACC will pay out to someone who trips over robbing your house. Correct me if I am wrong, I may be confusing it with the USA story.
  2. A nice idea, but for the forseeable future, 6 E30's and 2 E36's have been my lot I think. Pretty keen on a caldina wagon I think
  3. What goodwill is there with a car bought from BMW NZ? I imagine the presumably good service is all accounted for in the money that the customer hands over. As such, I can't see 100K worth of service/warranty life consideration.
  4. Interesting thread to pop up it's head again. Price aside(which I have a feeling has hit it's apex of demand): does anyone agree that in our small country with relatively few cars and proliferation of personalised plates, a safe general statement is that altered plates of any sort are fast becoming unfashionable? Whether they say silly things or not. Or is my taste just developing with age?
  5. Hand me (edit:)a weapon, and I will take a trip to the nearest un- mowed 1970's cul de sac where the question askers on this auction clearly live. Or are they just children? 1998 318iS Ltd edition sedan I feel passionate about unsolicited uneducated opinions whatever the arena.
  6. Assuming it is the 540i, unless an oddly spec'd sedan or a touring, it is unlikely to have self levelling. Generic cluster. Just like my tin- top 318iS has glow plug light place and rag top roof light etc.

    1996 318iS manual 1.9L

    Yo Didnt sell, and in the end after spending yet more money and time on her I've essentially decided to keep her. I shopped around for other cars in a similar price range and was disheartened by the sh*t that people manage to flog off for the same price with a bit of silicone spray, when I cant get any interest for an honest sale. I worry that if I were to get another car in similar price range, it could be just one of those polished up dogs. Nathan
  8. Good call; the man who becomes a towie was never in line for something more esteemed like a surgeon or the like.
  9. Welcome Just look up the vin on a basic decoder. Possible but entirely unlikely someone has gone to the effort of swapping in a 323 engine.
  10. Can't have too many blue tops. Must keep purchasing blue tops.
  11. Hah! I used to be on Bracken ave, a couple years ago now, mind. Nice and close to Esmonde

    Bump, Feel free to offer me less or trade, you may catch me in a "sick of paying for petrol and parking" mood.
  14. Ah yes I live in Taka, Rewiti Ave just off the beach. I hear you live in the area?
  15. Saw the E30 with it's sly driver this avo in Pons

    E36 318i Touring

    Damn nice! Wish my car was sold!
  17. Quite an eye- opener as to how difficult it can be to get to where you want to live in Auckland. None the less, how about Ellerslie Greenlane sort of areas? I'll admit to being clueless on price, but they aren't exactly the northern slopes of Rem so may be possible
  18. Euro= Everything we have in NZ. Kids getting their words from American sites/ shows/ gangsta rap these days.....

    80s BMW porn

    Dunno about boats, but BMW M30 looking diesel 6's coupled with a BMW leg are common enough here
  20. Dare I broach the idea that you may not be serious about this. I suspect that if money is free and easy, you wouldnt be driving a 2002 318i? There is no 'cool' in tyres. No one will look. Brand image is related directly to faith in tyre performance. And as such, image is not in your interests.
  21.
