  1. Good idea buying one! we have had a topagee 4 berth for about 30 years and just got it re- canvassed last year at around $2k and shes like new again! The canvas is the only part that goes on them, provided the axle/chassis etc isnt rusted and old. We looked at buying a new one a year or so ago but the equivalent costs $28k new and i just dont see the point!

    Had a gutsfull!

    Friends of mine just traded their V10 and lancruiser vx for a v6 toureg and tiguan.... old toureg used TOO MUCH fuel etc etc, and landcruiser was too big...... That may mean giltraps have a V10 for sale just traded i guess!

    what to buy

    Grant (service manager at JCBMW)'s Schnitzer e32 740il on style 5's was on trademe a while ago for around that, not sure if it still is. That car was MINT, bought new by the Simunovichs
  4. Twin dellortos..... dellortos? yeah im pretty sure.... they arent SU's or webers
  5. have popped my fiat up on trademe to see if anyone wants her, i dont use her AT ALL and she lives in a container...... Trademe
  6. I dont mind that people low- bal all of the time.... doesnt mean i have to accept! Good call- i usually reply with "how else can you pay.. shells?" No form of payment for a private sale of a car is taxed, so no reason for cash tax- dodge.....
  7. bb cars were a flat 12... 400i is a good buy at the prices they go for, remember that at certain km they NEED a full engine rebuild and apparently that is in the region of $30k. Almost all were auto also
  8. USually listen to classic 80's/90's alt/rock..... but what i wont admit to is britneys newest stuff and all of lady gaga's. not too shame about similar artists from the 80's as they are classics now
  9. Ive only seen them on some hoary imported lexuses and subies........ yukky

    HOLDEN CHEETAH 1973

    He dies in a Cobra Daytona coupe reproduction didnt he?
  13. welcome! 323i msport nice, is that the nz new one which came before the m325i?
  14. petrol 96 5 cylinder 2.2L turbo automatic 4wd 1994 OBC usually settles at 10- 11l/100km with some long distance, some local country driving, bit of city. i do like to floor it just to hear the external wastegate though...... should be a bit less
  15. Using your boat for the first time of the season. Getting cheap do- up boats. And hot guys.

    Can you say IDIOT?

    ^What Simon said. False excuses are just that.... Court and the police arent something to try and 'play'... actions and consequences! Good luck anyhow
  17. hamish5 might be keen to sell the one in his 99 M3? Gutted i JUST threw out the original blau head unit and changer from my 94 audi I would have given it to you
  18. Red is fab.... (closet doors are C4'd open!) I would kill for my car to be red aye. Fine price if it was my dad buying it as a nostalgic sunday- car to add to the stable, but me with only one car, id put my money on something else.
  19. I'd have to agree and say that Schnitzers are a bit boring/ bland. Although obviously they are older than 5 years ago when they seemed to be popular again, the fashion tide seems to have gone out on them for what we are seeing on cars at the mo..... Weaves are classic AND in vogue so hey. Unless they are those Schnitzers with the 2 thin spokes which i figure they arent.....
  20. Yeah man just go insurance it'll be all good. Not quite right, so far as the law goes- you must take all steps for a reasonable repair INCLUDING at a reasonable cost, not "money no object"
  21. I also see a green 633csi on there for 4k- im 99% sure it's the same car i looked at here up north for 2800ono which was nice nz new, but very tired and had a distinctive 70's vinyl smell to its green interior!
  22. Awesome! im semi curious of what can be done to me audi by Gavin some day...... on a sidenote- was reading about 745i's today and read that they had "BMW" instead of "M- Power" on the engine, but yours seems to prove otherwise?
  23. Your car isn't a hatin' ground man, no one really cares. As Ollie said each to his own Im curious that your car has become transitional between hunting gear and vehicle..... where did the thought of a camo wave come from? Seems very out of the blue thought- wise!

    E30 Paint Opinion

    Nice find! obviously not same as kit in pic but close enough.... there will be examples of the spoiler on the alpina register..... I would have killed for it when i had what is now Ray's C2 which was missing its front spoiler and still had the old mounting holes with a pfl lip shoddily screwed on hah... Shouldnt be too dear at all for a pro to paint eh- will look aaawesome
