I think its hot blonde lady with children's car. only other one i can think of is Mrs Simunovichs one, but i think hers was green.... Very nice

well cosmetically, run your hand under the front lip, 90% of them are all broken and bent and twisted on the underside, if that matters. If its an import and claims to be services etc, check the oil and air filter, the oil is usually black on the imported ones due to lak of servicing.... If it has a TV, the radio cant be re- programmed to NZ stations without getting new radio parts which are expenseve... Make sure the front shocks are OK, for a not- so old car these can die prematurely. Just usual crap like air con works, all elecs work etc, and try get one with uncollapsed drivers seat upholstery. There a whole lot of other things im sure, but tose are most common

VERY nice car dude- love those wheels, wish my tech2 had one.... oh sam- im definitely substituting mtech2 with something..... and its real baby
-
I may be, and probably am seriously wrong- but that car is in the same area, and is identical to one whos owner i delivered home when the car was in for major engine work, the owner complained of it being a real problematic car? i doubt i am correct and it most probably isnt this car, just the same colour and model. LOVE that colour though

So it would seem that rules have changed to do with rear seatbelts or some sh*t, and people who have cut holes in their rear parcel tray metal need it certified! Although i suppose if it is well hidden, most wof places wont know.

We have a truck, but no trailer.... trailer anyone?
-
is that a bimmersport stcker on winscreen?

That first 318i will go for an offer of $1500, the interior is shagged (like you have never known before) but the exterir is in fine condition with no dents
-
Do children not fit in the backseat of a 3? Id say the 5- as much as i LOVE 7's, i dont think a seven will ever be a neccessity for mankind
-
Seems to be a fine forum, it includes some very popular models of cars like the w124 under the 'other cars' areas, and i think a w124 is more of a forum- persons car than a w210 is! someone spammed me today about it from benzworld.... i signed up only because i own a fiat. my merc is loyal to benzworld, and i am loyal to BS! oh and im a kerikeri lad as well so yeah bit far.

sucks that its not reg, id buy it otherwise... cash brent? i prefer the other legal currency- i'll offer 1800 shells

Hey allan thats a perfect post! thankyou! so yes still wanting educated answers to my question from people who know what they drive, and dont expect or try to coax 300hp of tractable power from the accelerator pedal of a 318! The reason i say this, is that i have had 2 316i's, and found them both fine to drive, and very economical cheerth guyth nathan

318iScoupe- why 20 years? are you a bad driver? Ok so for MY driving (lots of pointless runs around auckland, frequency and distance determined by how economical my cars are and how much money/ petrol i have. Also probably monthly runs to the bay of islands at the speed limit from auckland. aside from economy issues- how about reliability and maintenance of the 318is, 320i, and 325i? nathan

Oh that is a seriously sh*t day. and i thought mowing the lawns today was bad enough
-
Perhaps go into a dealer and ask if anyone might be trading one in, or might consider selling- they always go in for repairs
-
Hey i second you on that one jazzbass, i basically have completely surgically created and reshaped and tendoned and boned feet, because i was born handicapped. With the seat adjustments i reqiure for a manual, a long drive really hurts my back a lot, so im in your 'camp' so to speak.... (dont laugh sam haha) I am happy with the economy i get from my auto, and yes i too conform to speed limits. Nevertheless i am not shopping for a gearbox, i am shopping for a good engine and nice car nathan
-
Yes and dealer f**kups do happen, a mechanic wrote off an m coupe once on a corner, so i think that counts as well.... the wheel thing was the tyre shops fault and must have just been looked past back at JC- could have been done at shore performance (who are f**king AMAZING, they machined new locator rings for my 17's for free and the rest) or Beaurepaires- but only KK sends cars to Beau'. Sometimes cusomers keys would be lost for a day and they couldnt take their car home! But general opinion is that JC is way better than Team's
-
Its a cheap fix if you can do alternators yourself- probably under 100 for parts, or you can get it done with new bearings etc as well and a clean for under 400
-
Its your alternator dude. Get it seen to, or your engine may stop on you on the harbour bridge like mine did!
-
hmmm you are right, on second thoughts the one by vector MAY be silver- but it is a tinted m kitted 528i with similar rims
