For users/humans with no legs below the knee lol? What an utterly retarded option.

Yeah but on the options list it's got genuine Schnitzer dust caps and genuine Alpina number plate screws.

Here's your 185k new. Seems cheap at 54k for a 10 year old Toyboata sedan? http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/toyota/auction-748014270.htm

They're more than that lol. For a number of years they've been 240k plus and that's even before you begin with the options lists. The 760li are 350k without options!

What's funny is that if someone bought that 120i as an alpina they realistically would have to give them their money back if the purchaser ahem, when the purchaser finds out its a run of the mill E87 lol

http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-732609907.htm - genuine as hell, if it's a fake how did they pull it off so well http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-745827247.htm - genuine motorsport from the TM user nzbmwspecialist lol http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-746489099.htm - real M/S

BMW is probably the only winner with this story I guess.

I'm sure Glenn will be able to chime in on that..

My advice would be to stay away from a E87 unless it's a diesel or 6 cylinder model. The N46 motors in these are terribad.

Agreed. There's a guy that uses the same small supermarket here in Roslyn, he's got a 2011 760i which he paid over 350k for & tbh there isn't a 340k difference mine parked beside his wise.. only real advantage I seen him having was the reversing cameras and radar cruise control, oh and a few more ponies I guess lol.

DING DONG... My advice if you're keen on one and paying top dollar; get it checked out and stay away from imports, especially Singapore imports and I mean avoid them like a fanny full of cold snow, advise given to me by a guy I went to school with who's a BMW franchise mechanic. Also don't bother with a 735i they're cheaper but a lot less power and use an UN-noticeable amount of fuel less.. I paid half that price for mine, NZ New with virtually every option. I'm more than pleased with it, in-fact I wished I'd had one years ago, it is the MOST comfortable car I've ever been in and the heated massaging seats are farkin brilliant, it will happily burble about all day very quietly and comfortably and when you're feeling a bit bogan it really does get off it's ass when you give it the jandal, mine has the optional EDC and sport mode. I'm yet to have an issue with mine, but with most cars you can sorta tell whether or not it's been looked after & mine having a full dealership history ticked that box. I guess I'm just lucky so far, but at 6k if it goes bang I'll just throw it away, probably get a few grand back if I parted it. Don't get me wrong, I took a huge gamble on mine, it had no WOF, an airbag issue a front bumper that looked as if it had been dragged 100km down a gravel road.. wheels had to be machined and repainted. To get a WOF all it needed was two front tyres. The fault code was reset before the WOF and it never came back and still hasn't (owner said it came on when kids were jumping up and down on the back seats) - urgh.. So it owes me around 9k now I guess by the time you factor in flights and travel and pissing around. Here's a picture of mine after everything had been done..

Anything worth getting as a cheap daily? Where are they at?

Milland is brilliant. Immediate dispatch and very good to deal with saving money in the process.

To what was bought!

Link us now, or ban..

If you're restricted by cash, personally I'd rather a kiwi new non motorsport car with FSH over having a motorsport imported version.

You might be lucky to get a E90 Motorsport 323-325i for 14k Where possible I'd stick to NZ New, the iDrive is virtually pointless on an import especially if it has navigation. Have you considered a low mileage E46 330i facelift for around the same $$$ ? IMO they're a better put together car and they've aged well & yes I have owned both E46 and E90. Even though both my current E46 and E65 cars are both pre f/l the facelift ones just seem to age a lot better.. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-742730342.htm for example, NZ New with good kms.. this colour is epic on this one.. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-743915158.htm or if your dog wants to come too.. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-733655083.htm

We get that a lot down our way with all the students just hopping on a plane after studies and leaving their unreg/unwof'd cars here.

Always thought about selling our holiday house and buying one of these. Love the idea of parking up in the middle of nowhere.

Went for a good price considering it being an import with 200kms

Rare as bro. But christ those wheels make me want to gouge out my eyeballs.

Good old media. 100% accurate 50% of the time.

Good news. He needs to go home now and start working on his retirement. He's obviously not the stig like people thought, as TG was airing whilst Schumi was crook.

Haha, yeah, I knew it was something like that it went for. Couldn't even take his own pictures, instead he's ripped them from TradeMe and cut the bottoms off the pics.

Awesome, the "official" thread, bugger those unofficial threads on Bimmersport lol My son plays soccer but I've always been a rugby person myself. Looking forward to tomorrow night!
