  1. 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
  2. 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

    You're ALL invited!

    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.
  4. sucks that its not reg, id buy it otherwise... cash brent? i prefer the other legal currency- i'll offer 1800 shells
  5. 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
  6. 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
  7. Oh that is a seriously sh*t day. and i thought mowing the lawns today was bad enough

    New here

    nor is gay bashing
  9. Perhaps go into a dealer and ask if anyone might be trading one in, or might consider selling- they always go in for repairs
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. 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
  13. Its your alternator dude. Get it seen to, or your engine may stop on you on the harbour bridge like mine did!

    Kimmie's 1984 528i

    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

    Kimmie's 1984 528i

    LOVE the interior, and a really nice car as well! is this the one that was always parked by the Vector arena?
  16. Oh yeah i shoulkd add the reason for this- I have NO income of my own, its my mother who will buy me the car just to see me out of the merc, hence the fuel issues
  17. AWESOME car! i love! Is this car a high spec one, or is it a 3.8 and were 3.6L cars the ones with chrome trim and turbine wheels....?
  18. Yeah ive gotta say the guys at the mount are pretty f**king useless by reputation, and gave us sh*t all help a few months back when we were looking for a brand new bmw, of which they had the perfect model in stock. Take it to jerry's, i have no end of good things to say about them- and yes it is because i worked there- so i know that they are genuinely nice!

    Em's New E30

    Nice car! oh gosh i do love a nice 316.... search for my identical one on here if you are considering bottlecaps at all....
  20. Well hello all, I drive an auto mercedes 230e 1990 and am looking to sell it and buy another car. well really just buy another car! I know most that there is to know about ALL the models features, handling and price, but id like some fuel consumption advice.... IMO the merc has sportscar handling compared to a f**king standard e30, so i dont realy want an e30, and i dont want to shop for too long either ... what are your fuel stories with: e36 318i auto e36 318is auto e36 325i manual nathan

    BMW 316

    great car! ive had 2 316i's and loved them both! did they reeeealy have 1.8? im quite sure that they were a 1.6L
  22. really only the Z3 1.9- 2.2 models, and maybe the lower powered 3 series models, although they arent without their charm

    road trip

    Beware of the mangumukas- if you see the fawn hitchhiking on the side of the road, pick him up and take him to where he wants to go, otherwise you will crash and die.
