Looks great! Is that Sir D**s old car?

Alpina seems to have a different box again- unsure on diameters though

Nice s4, is it a good example?

No regrets, the nice ones i enjoyed and allowed me to move to the next car (about 12 or 13 E30s, most immaculate nz new cars with a couple of less good ones... Perhaps the Alpina c2 2.7 with suspected 325i motor; for the pittance I sold her for I could have kept and these days had prof restored and sourced a 2.7.

Thanks and you're right- how great would A green be?!

It's been a while since I've owned a BMW, been in company cars for a while with a urs6 and mgbgt to play with. Anyway picked this up a while back and have been returning her to spec- hence my advert seeking standard hellrot wing mirrors and an Alpina rear spoiler instead of the m3 items. She is a 3.2 Switchtronic, which is basically a tuned 5 speed zf auto with buttons on back of the steering wheel, Effectively always driving in sport mode, then using the 's' position as manual mode(normal s function is not available)

One ratty E28 on the motorway this morning at Greenlane with another ratty E28 on a trailer!

As above, in NZ for a sedan, cheers nathan

Excellent condition, painted hellrot/bright red $100 Located Auckland Viaduct

Just measured mine...

Hi guys I did an engine oil change on the m52 (Alpina 3.2L) and about 9.5L came out. Based on the 328i, there should be 6.5L in there. The sump has the 328 part number, there doesnt appEar to be any engine oil cooler. Filling with 6.5L, the level is about 10-15mm below the low mark (low-high range=~15mm). The dipstick tube is fully seated and correct 328i, but the dipstick itself googles most easily as e39 528i but is part of a moosh of superseded parts and numbers which sometimes show 328i. Used realoem etc etc. is anyone able to shine light on the situation for me? All international forum postings have people reciting the prayer-book's 6.5L. cheers

Edited: My hellrot e36 sedan has genuine clear indicators and rear lights, and m3 wing mirrors. I'd like to replace all with standard amber lights and standard mirrors in hellrot. anyone keen to swap? Auckland based ta

Removed gross AC rear roof spoiler

If I hadn't added a car only this week, I'd buy the E30 tomorrow. leichtbau you do not need another 2.7

Thanks for that, I have been out of the BMW thing for a long time, will BMW/dealers respond to a serious in-person request for the build sheet? I'm serious to make sure this car is trim-correct. Or what are the paid services? Happy to pay. Cheers

Hi guys I'm curious to know, how do I find out if an E36 (1998) came with clear front indicators and the clear/red tail lights or the amber ones? Cheers Nath

In excellent condition please. PM me Auckland area Nathan

Which one Brent, the 5 or the 7?

Nice car. Is this the one that used to belong to JCBMW service manager, had AC wheels and was sold new to the Simunovichs? Used to be absolutely mint

Spotted my Henna E30 at Milford beach this evening. Sounds like sh*t, but looking good

Sold.

Not just yet, I'll see if I can get some taken and sent to me tomorrow. Beige cloth and beige carpets, manual windows and no radio. One small dash crack in usual corner. Currently has big sheepskin seat covers on.

1984 320i coupe (1983 build) Manual Henna red Power steering new tyres new cambelt and water pump Seats almost unblemished, very slight wear on drivers seat but have had covers throughout previous and current ownership new shock absorbers No rust in sunroof 163,000km (odo/tacho stopped there when I got her about 3 years ago, so add around 2000km to that which includes a couple of Kerikeri to Auckland trips, and the odd Sunday drive up north. Owned by a friend since the mid 1980's then sold to me. Drives like a dream, but let down by her paint which shows a history of bad resprays of odd panels. Will want a full paint job. No major rust, completely absent in rear boot corner-wells and other usual places, but there is the odd dot from stone chips and also surface rust inside the bonnet(treated) which has also just been backed into and given a small dent by perhaps a ute. This cracked the paint as well. Typewritten and signed letter from Colin Giltrap in the original owners manual/ service history stating that it is a demonstrator car not a rental as registered, which is a nice bit of history. $4200 Car is located Kerikeri in my mother's garage, I am in Auckland.

This car will be FOR SALE soon when she gets her next warrant. Car is in Kerikeri with mum who finds that her other cars aren't getting enough use as she uses the BMW to drive to town in. A broken straight spring in drivers seat can be fixed with a talurit splice crimp or steel sleeve, all seats are hole-free IIRC To be mint, whole car will need a repaint. Parked in a carport most of life, some faded areas and some repaints over the years. Only speedo working, odo and tacho stopped just after I got her at 163oookm. has about 2,000km more on her now. no rust, except surface under bonnet which has been 'treated'. good: tyres are all almost 100% manual gearbox shifts smooth and tight new front shocks, rears as new timing done starts perfectly every time runs very smoothly power steering manual sunroof various replacement parts purchased when I got her (she hadn't been used much at all for a long time except to drive to the marina on weekends) including full exhaust and various trim parts new cambelt water pump etc within last 2,000km This car belonged to old friends of ours who had owned it since almost new (was purchased by a man for his wife who decided she did not like it and sold it on quickly). Original typewritten letter from Colin Giltrap stating that rego says 'rental car' but was in fact a demonstrator. I imagine this would have been one of the first in NZ. Original books and some receipts. What is she worth to you?
