Foohey

Hi There, This is Fooheys GF. My work friend has a 1992 or 1993 540i v8 which has just recently munted its motor. She's wanting to know an average of how much she might get just for the body? Its in perfect condition, no dints or anything. Before the motor crapped itself it had down 140Ks I appreciate any help. Thanks

lol i went through a roundabout, and it made a massive bang, and felt like all my wheels fell off lol... to start with i thought it was the gearbox.. i havnt been doing skids lol, tyres are too expencive for that crap lol..

can a 325i diff fit in a 320i? blew the diff today, its in the shop and im just wanting to know can a bigger diff fit in ok? i think its a 4:1 (dont quote me on this..)

Explains alot yeh?

looks like my sisters bf's VN commy.. he used a spray can.. it just yells "BOGAN" at me really loud.... lol

How would i go about getting a bimmersport windscreen banner? as i dont have a credit card

so far ive got... -Light was green when you pulled up, changed to orange. -1st car drove through (while light was orange) -2nd car wasnt stopping -light was red when she hit you. -there was about a 4 second gap between the 1st and 2nd car. so.. if she was following in the same lane as the 1st guy, with a following distance of 4 seconds, if the 1st car stopped, would she of hit them? or stopped? if the 1st car was going through the orange, and she was this distance behind, she had PLENTY of time to stop! 4 seconds? veyron takes 10 seconds to stop from 400kph! (takes about 2km of track.. but still...) have you ever seen a green light go orange from about 150M away? then thought to your self, ill make it, and just keep going?!? Basicly thats what this lady did, and if 535er is in the wrong for that, id hate it if you were a judge!

ok for a start, chch isnt hickville, we do have arrows at our lights, where so advanced down here we even have lights just for busses! big green B's, but like all citys, not every set of lights has arrows... also, quite alot of you may not have seen some of chch's drivers, if the light turns yellow, and u think u can make it... u may... but the 15 cars behind you will also make it... chch has mental drivers, i go through this set of lights quite alot, and its easy too see around and easy to judge distance.. if the light goes orange, and cars are turning, your ment to give way (consitering their in the middle of the road) but most people dont give a $hit. i was turning there once and a little asian lady with a L plate was turning in aswell, (coming from the opposite direction) so she had to give way.. i started going and then she turned the indercator off and came straight for me!! i slamed on the brake and planted the horn... yelled a few things out the window... then noticed she was on the phone too... this happens alot, when i was going do defencive driving, i was going around from bealey to fitzy, and in the turning lane from firzy to bealey there was about 7 cars bumper to bumper all smacked into each other... by what ive heard, and ive seen the intersection and know what chch drivers are like, i think 535er has done nothing wrong, but prooving it to the police/courts is a different story...

exactly what i was thinking! but i was thinking somthing on the lines of, I JUST GOT MY LICENCE AND I DRIVE A BMW!!!

kinda makes ya wanna move to aucks aye

ok, so... i need to get rid of a few bits lying around the yard.. if you come over and get them, they are yours free. All off an E36 Sedan - front and rear bumpers in silver - bonnet in black primer (has small dent, could be fixed) - and my side skirts.. PM me if you want any or leave a comment

i like the way this man thinks

lol i did this on e36, no deadbolt tho, but when u lock an e36 and its flat the rear right door dosnt lock so u can get back in anyways, good luck

was going to say you would have to be tripping off somthing to like it, but it was a bit "harsh" sounding in my head... now that you said it... Eh! lol...

with the de-misters on the back window, if its broken, can you get them fixed / replaced? mine works, but only the top 2 lines kinda sucks

dumb

get a quote from stokes motor co also, hes good. corner of aldwins rd and ferry rd. http://www.stokesmotor.co.nz

god damn its snowing in chch right now i just went to get some smokes and i drifted around the corner didnt mean too... was more of a slide lol...

ok, everything is getting painted accept arround the engine, that will be done in a few months time when the new engine goes in.. he showed me some black with red pearl and damn it looks cool! but theres just too many to choose from

Ok, so, my E36 is going into the shop on monday to get painted, and i went in this afternoon, and the guy handed me a booklet of more than 500 kinds of black..... so, my question to all bimmer lovers out there is... Should i get Black... Or.. Black with Pearl... Never really seen pearl done before and unsure what pearl would look like on a bmw, or what colour to do it with input welcome

ebay is good. i got my set (top and bottom) for $95 inc postage, and was at my house in 5-6 days

not alot in this thread...

put it this way, if i had that car, i would put it on for about the same, and wait for the highest offer.. and if it sells at that, good on him, its not that unbelievable.. if he was asking for $35k or somthing, thats when id have a little giggle ... when i saw the car i fell in love, if i had the money id take it lol
