  1. I saw some photos of the M60 in E30 coupe project. Top work, but I would expect no less from the person doing the work.
  2. To be honest, I would struggle to post anything overly positive about the car. It looks like a normal run of the mill car with 20+ years of wear and tear on it. I guess the most positive thing I can say is that I've seen worse. It certainly wouldn't make me look twice if it passed me on the street (when and if it eventually can move under its own steam)
  3. Yuo could always pay with invisible money.
  4. I think it is funny. Maybe Shady could search Trade Me, you never know there maybe a sense of homour for sale somewhere.
  5. Cool car! Hope it goes to a good home.
  6. Jolly good question and thread.
  7. Blimey there are some whiners in here who love to cry everytime someone posts something that upsets them. It is rather amusing. If Kis runs for PM i'd love to be their deputy and put an end to the namby-pambies.
  8. Nice cars, I like them (as much as I can from a look on screen)
  9. OP - looks like a great trip and I really admire you for making such an interesting trip and stepping outside of most people's comfort zones, but as Kis said, photos in a more reader friendly size is appreciated by us with old PCs and average internet connections.
  10. It's obviously for the Chinese market who love cars that look like that
  11. Awesome - slug races, people might die of old age before you got to the 1/4 mile
  12. I have an E36 M3 (3.2l 6 speed), and an E39 540i station wagon (auto). Both standard. Unfortunately I won't be posting any pictures, as believe it or not, some members of our society feel that an expression of gratitude to our profession involves vandalism to our property, and I don't want to tempt fate. Regards, Eagle
  13. My username is more related to the state of my cranium than anything else.
  14. Right, I see that my brief and first input here has created a couple of comments, some warranted, and a couple that are obviously by immature members here. Firstly, I would like to clear up why I am a "watching" member. I am very new to BMW ownership, and have recently bought two of them (late last year). I have a reasonably knowledge of cars, but am far from an expert. Therefore, I have been a watching member in order to learn as much as I can, and also to work out who I should bother listening to on here, and who I should ignore (as they are just plain wrong, and their advice is dangerous and irresponsible). Secondly, I did not join this forum in my capacity as a member of the NZ Police. I joined as someone who is very much enjoying BMW ownership, and with the hopes of learning a lot, and being able to enjoy my cars, and even press them hard (in the correct environment) - especially as I am stuck in a Commodore on a day-to-day basis, and these get a bit tedious. To be honest I am not really interested in getting into debates about what is legal and what is not, and the resons why. I don't make the laws, I enforce them. I also have no interest in coming on here in the hopes of finding someone I can hunt out and issue with enfringement notices. I did however jump into this thread this morning, as I was concerned that there were some unjust comments being levelled at my colleagues (in this and the other similar thread). I must admit that I am highly disappointed by the attitudes of some of the members in here, and the relaxed attitude that they take to maintaining their vehicles in a safe manner. I am disappointed from a personal point of view, as well as a professional one. Conversely I am very impressed with many of the cars on here, and the work that has gone into them, and the very high level of prefessionalism that have gone into the modifications. Anyway - that is all I have to say on this matter. Once I feel I have sufficient knowledge about BMW's and have things I feel worthy of sharing with the forum I will, however at the moment it is very much a "watch and learn" process. Thanks for reading, and hopefully the respect of my desicion not to get involved (much) in a professional capacity. Regards, Eagle
  15. As a member of the NZ Police, and also a "watching" member on here, some of you are really a bit stupid with what you post, and think you can get away with. We don't need to be tipped off, you will be amazed with what we know.
