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.

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

Good call; the man who becomes a towie was never in line for something more esteemed like a surgeon or the like.

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.

Can't have too many blue tops. Must keep purchasing blue tops.

Hah! I used to be on Bracken ave, a couple years ago now, mind. Nice and close to Esmonde

Trademe Relisted $3900 S=R $5000- Buynow

Bump, Feel free to offer me less or trade, you may catch me in a "sick of paying for petrol and parking" mood.

Ah yes I live in Taka, Rewiti Ave just off the beach. I hear you live in the area?

Saw the E30 with it's sly driver this avo in Pons

Damn nice! Wish my car was sold!

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

Euro= Everything we have in NZ. Kids getting their words from American sites/ shows/ gangsta rap these days.....

Dunno about boats, but BMW M30 looking diesel 6's coupled with a BMW leg are common enough here

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.

Bit of you?

As per picture (only one I have right now sorry) sans clear lights, they have been swapped out for original orange ones which I prefer. manual short shift with new bmw knob genuine dealer optioned mtech front with genuine splitter added later full genuine dealer fitted AC schntizer exhaust system new tyres all around (november) pirelli fronts and something generic rear in 235 clotch sport seats no rips 2 airbags genuinely economical factory mtech suspension air con blows cold (and hot when you want it!) new thermostat new coolant recently serviced colour is maderiaviolet (dark purple!) genuine forged 3L M3 rims pair of genuine msport side skirts yet to be fitted $5500 Takapuna Will try and do more photos, but am pretty flat out at the moment

A few years ago for mums 120i a new key was just posted in the mail to her, and wasnt that expensive from jcBMW iirc. Her rav4 keys have been way more expensive when needed.

Cheers Ray, a great help thanks

As per title, my E36 coupe has Fl indicators etc, keen to swap for pre fl orange ones. if anyone is keen. North shore

I was quoted something like $1200 for a high pressure (pump assisted brakes) for an audi urS4 I had once. Got the hose replaced and the fittings re- fitted at hydraulink for something like 120.

Very nice. The style of wheel and it's void space vs paint area perfectly suit the matching colour e36 body shape.

+10: An interesting point to prove this is that when the boys arent in the market for something or cannot afford it, they have every negative opinion in the world about value. However When you are genuinely in the market and can afford to pick and choose, you are more than happy to shop in th eupper regions to secure a good example and assure good value.

M44 318iS, No cracks or damage to plastic components, new clean coolant.
