  1. Thanks for that. Awesome looking beast and bar the wheels, it still looks quite modern today!
  2. There's an M1 in NZ? Awesome and rare car, didn't get any pics on your travels?

    Digital TV setups

    Freeview HD is the way to go if you have a full HD TV and are concerned about picture quality. If you have a reasonably high end TV I find the MySky broadcast even on 1,2,3 channels is sh*t compared to a FreeView DTV broadcast. So if we are watching 1,2,3 I switch the TV from Sky to DTV. For computer stuff, I have cables throught he walls & roof to the laptop for instant viewing, or a 1TB network storage HDD and because my TV has wireless I access the media from the Samsung remote. I also have a 64GB flash drive in the back of the TV as an option. Bit hard to see how clear things are as the pics were taken with my phone. I've settled for a Samsung LED TV which is nice and thin. Samsung seem to have one of the best picture qualities especially in the higher end of things.
  4. If it's outright power then the 545i is the one to get but the 530d can still hold their own. Driven several 530d and they are brilliant. Remap them and they are even better!
  5. Awesome how they manage to shift the energy about with computers these days. Had that of been my Commodore it would look like a shotgunned pumpkin.
  6. If an R8 is in your realms and you are after a weekend toy, then get the job done and post up the pics. & yes with the staff having the old green eyed monster.
  7. That car rental is directly across the street from where I stay. They only had 2-3 cars. I've got a 2 night stags do next Friday/Saturday night up there.
  8. I'd be going into a LTSA agent and saying the plates are damaged, hand them over (damaged) for new ones.
  9. Nope not sorted. It's an older H6 engine, none of those above are unfortunatley suitable. Cheers
  10. Bit disappointed in this special if I'm honest. The previous one was better. It seems more funny if they are breaking down all the time. I did piss myself when they ripped the front of Hammond's car off for Jezza to say "I don't understand winching but I don' think that's part of it"

    happy new year

    I'm already on my 4th hair of the dog!
  12. Yup because when they were installing the computer it overheated and blew the hoses because the heater was closed off!
  13. We have a jetboat with a EZ30 H6 Legacy engine. Was wanting to know if anyone would know where to download a repair manual for it? Specifically we need to know the specifics of the cooling systems e.t.c. Have searched bloody everywhere today! Cheers.

    Word Glenn. I swear if this year had one more day in it it would tip me over the edge - never before have I ever been so over it and hanging out for a break. It's been f**ken sh*t, bring on 2012.

    I think every time I start with what I want, then look at the running costs. All in all, a bad time of year to be shelling out 80k on a car.

    I think my VR V8 ute is about that 350nm mark. Depends on the size of the car, the torque on my ute feels quite muscly especially at take off, instant power without rev's 600nm on these is an awesome feeling. Especially when you have 1 ton behind you passing multiple cars as if they aren't there.

    It will be 600nm and 197kw tomorrow.

    Well look what the cat dragged in........ Couldn't help myself. IMMEDIATELY after jumping into it it felt like home. The instant power, driving position, suspension and feel of it is streets ahead of what is my gone twice the price ML Mercedes. Deets : 183kms 3.0d Facelift 6 speed auto w/160kw 500nm engine (getting remapped tomorrow) Same colour as the last one Sportpac Lazy total of wait for it : $23,900
  19. Instead of giving it away for free couldn't you get $150 for it from a wreckers or scrap metal?
  20. It would have to be a bloody nice pre-facelift, low kms, NZ New E46 sedan to swap for this 7 series haha!
  21. LAG much with all that expansion space?

    Compared to a similarly spec'd 320d touring they are 30k ! Like the closing of the eyes lol! Has he remapped it? They will chuck out & wait for it... 264kw & 710nm - bahahahahaha! That in the car that's the size of a skateboard would be a huge amount of fun. Best $1000 you could ever spend. Another 335d

    I really like the sound of a V8, that's why I have a Commodore ute with a very illegal exhaust which makes the windows shake. But for every day use you just couldn't go past a 335d - one of those remapped would take on just about anything. Visit My Website - that would be awesome sitting in the driveway!
  24. Word. Spend that on something new and it's worth half that in probably less than a year.

    Hey Cam. If I won Lotto, there would be a 335d fully optioned as my daily. 610nm remapped to about 700nm just couldn't be ignored. I've driven the 330d (2006 model) and it was brilliant. I have the 320d for towing, it seems and no sh*t, tows better than my V8 ute. My ute hauls ass but as soon as you put a load behind it it throws an anchor out. Our old 320d doesn't seem to make any difference with or without a load.
