Would sound so cool..Automatic’s sound the best with big bores, so sporty. Drone-rrrah-drooone-rahhhh-droone.. Don’t do it. They are a nice quite car for a reason, leave the noise for the Japanese crowd. V8's are ok to be loud because they sound good.

Haha, I know but the Ferrari is still fastest in my mind, they are so so cool. The Porsche Careera GT is cool, the sound they make alone dwarfs even a Ferrari, maybe it’s that colour that has me thinking red instead.

Welcome matey, when you say south and mainland do you mean Hamilton?? Car sounds fantastic, what colour combo is it.. Hiding things from the missus is a mission, I have found putting the car in her name and buying things for it as a present to her works well, all women love shiny presents. TBH I would look at some AP Brakes instead if the Brembo’s, I have Brembo’s and they are nothing flash, sure they are slightly better than stock items but are far from the best.

$1,700.. Hm. I could sell him my tyres minus rims? Only done 2,000km, FSH.

Thanks Grant, some cool car. I like the race track so that Challenge Stradale would do me just fine thanks, fastest of the lot round a track.

At least they have given a Gear Leaver on this model, the last one has a column stalk and awkward buttons on the steering wheel. Would love a drive in this, as much sh*t as the E65 got they were a great car to drive and actually felt lot smaller than they were, this new one is meant to be light years ahead again.

It’s up to you really, if the car has sentimental value of any sort or you feel attached to it id say fix it. If It help my mum’s BMW was reversed into and she elected Evan’s European as the repairer and the insurance company covered it, she didn’t muck around with multiple quotes or seeing their recommended repairers she just went straight to the best and sent the insurance company the quote/bill.. Was Three times the cost of a normal repairer.

I laugh at the fact that the AMG has an open diff, it’s so retarded that even when spending NZ$350,000.00 you get no LSD, would cost them a whole $300 to fit one and would make it go a lot beter.

Would think regs wouldn’t allow it as the E30 didn’t come with a large case factory?

No way, E34 M5's are worth nothing, the V8 M5 is regarded as the best M5 by quite a few.

MS-BM posts something cool and still gets given sh*t! Im with ya on this one, just needs a six speed manual and an LSD, would be fast as hell, not E30 fast but fast

They look odd but are king pin, Toyota were building Land Cruisers when VW were only making Air Cooled cars and the only decent German off roader was the G wagon. Mmmmmm G wagon.

Chipped they are, but dont tell anyone. Have seen a chipped 330d run a low 14 second 1/4 mile Turbo Torque pwns all.

Times two. Its got a silly name though. Toe-rag. Shame the 200 series LC is so expensive.

Epic, comes from England. While we are hating things, I hate DOSHBAG, its a wanky American word that seems to be back in fashion.

Because Bimmersport is the new Facebook for E30/36 drivers and there is only so much you can talk sh*t about when it comes to E30/36 so Trade-Me auctions fill the gaps in-between the what colour should I paint my wheel nuts threads and can someone Photoshop a part I can’t afford on my E30 thread.. I won’t even list a BMW on TM through fear of dreamers discussing how it’s over priced before realising it’s a members car and quickly saying how mean it is. Its the same for other fanboy Forums, I think we are getting bored and have lost our imaginations.

I suppose if you are not driving the car often a high quality battery is essential, I put a new one in my E30 about six months ago, four of which it has been parked up, want to start it on the weekend and it’s as dead as a door nail, im thinking the tiny constant drain for my back up siren is responsible. Would a high quality battery like you sell stay charged even when not being used for long periods of time Glenn?

And the Indigo, that’s one of two concepts and they are awesome. Im also partial to the EB110, they are replacable but still rare, anything with four Turbo's is win in my book. The rest are just machines that can be easily replaced with money. Hey we will never own any of them so if he wants to wreck them its no skin of my nose.

Id rock a red one with red and black leather, that nice dark red. Imola is it? Service costs would be expensive but if using the car properly, ie sideways tyre smoking track days, cruises it would be well worth it.

Makes you laugh. I sold this car for 22k four years ago, since then it has been sold to this guy for 13k, from there he ran it into the ground as quick as possible and is trying to sell it for 5k more than he paid for it. It’s an Altezza, it may be a special edition but it’s still one of over two thousand second hand Altezza's for sale. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-254327647.htm

X2, its hard to gt them back off without bending them to hell, the Germanplates.com ones anyway. Looks nice Glenn, you lucky bugger.

Did they do a survey? Subaru's are awsome, id rock one.

You would be better off getting a nice second hand set if you can, as an idea of cost I paid just under $300 to have my driver’s seat repaired in the spots it was worn and I provided the fabric… a whole mint interior could be had for that.

X2 Happy birthday Brian, hope you have a nice day. Make sure you get a Steak and a few beers tonight.

Its done 240,000km, might be a bit high
