As a comparison, we were offered $1,500 for a average E39 528i with a crap motor. Best bet would be to wreck it yourself and sell parts on TM.

Some say his skin has the texture of a dolphin’s, and that wherever you are in the world if you tune your radio to 88.4 you can actually hear his thoughts...All we know is that he the Bimmersport Stig. What’s the relevance of the tyre pictures? Wondering. Hard out that your tyres wore so much on the outside running 3deg camber and bugger all flex.. wehens the race tyres coming?

Ever wanna swap for a Touring

For your crap Honda -
Have you tracked T1R's?? They are a performance tyre.
-
Someone had to post it...
-
T1R’s are great, they wear quite quickly and are a little noisy though, do you plan on driving very fast and hard, odd track day etc? If not I would actually look at Dunlop SP Sports, fitted a set to my mum’s E46 (same size tyres as yours) last year and she is bloody happy, we had a set on our Astra Turbo, performed well and lasted 40,000km including a few track days.

The Dunlop Sport max are up there with some much more expensive tyres, I actually fear they are/ere better than my $600 Pirellis. I had a good drive of one through the back roads of Onewhero and had it dancing, lots of grip and very adjustable.. Scary coming in too quick and lifting off after heavy braking! TTEETT is Toyota Team Europe, they are Europe’s Toyota motorsport arm, responsible for the Celica and Corolla WRC and Group A cars, Toyota’s GT1 LeManz racer and are now the company that run the Toyota F1 team and build engines for Williams… plus a whole lot more. I had one of there special edition road cars and brought the plate to suite it, the guy that brought the car didn’t want them so I kept them and fitted them to the Beemer.
-
Ridiculous. Get a German plate. The cops have given up caring now. Hope you plan on keeping the car for a while, ST220 will look silly on a BMW.. As does TTEETT. Do you run the SP Sport Maxx? They are a top tyre, just ran my set out on the Meggie, mine were 235 and griped like you say sh*t to a blanket. Its funny how people see drive train as a determining factor in grip, my FWD has more grip than any car I have driven ESP is awlways off though

The distinctive exhaust note of a BMW straight six. A straight six BMW from the 70’s sounds the same as a straight six BMW from late, im not sure how they retain it but it’s so distinctive, I can hear a BMW coming a mile away. Coopers Sparkling Ale, it’s in a 750ml bottle and available at your favourite supermarket.. it’s my new favourite beer, have two and im on my way to a good night. I cleaned out countdown Papakura stock last week. DO TRY IT.

We had a CDXI for six months. They are not bad but they are so boring that they are dangerous, you could actually fall asleep at the wheel after 10 red bulls, ours was so boring I contemplated driving it into things at high speed to see if the 5 star safety rating was valid. I’d see a Maxima and think wow that looks exciting. Also, they drink a lot of petrol, equal to a five series V8, you get nothing back out of it though. I would recommend one to someone who doesn’t like cars or driving. They move along effortlessly have lots of kit and are very safe.

I use a Meguiars Aloe cleaner then a Meguiars leather conditioner, its good stuff, did a 10 year old tan BMW interior last year with it and you should have seen the sh*t that came off, the white scrub cloth was black! Try and do it on a cool morning as you will get uncomfortable in a hot car, it takes a hell of a long time to clean though, quite difficult actually, need a lot of elbow grease.

Sorry, No they are not, stay the f**k away from Vectra’s!!!

I have a troll.

Manukau auto and tyre centre.

Because E30 M3's are rare
-
Not unlike the factory two tone option. Nice car and welcome, happy your happy being here.
-
Maybe some new OEM ones, the bar is pointless without good bushes and links..
-
Its in my showroom thread, im on a MacBook and have no idea how to cut and paste... sorry.
-
Just fit one, you'll be wanting new bushes for it also, I had some made from Nolithane, didnt cost too much and was well worth it. An anti roll bar or sway bar will aid turn in, reduce under steer making the cat a lot more neutral.
-
Yes they do, I would look at the 3.0R. Lots of car for the money. They are chain drive also. $1,000 is nothing for a cam belt.
-
Get an alarm and hook a push start ignition up to the immobiliser.. no key needed. Actually, keys are cheaper and lighter.
-
Its real big in Germany also.

To far.. that’s beyond Rat, that’s Cindy Lauper reincarnated as a Golf.
