    FS: Removable towbar

    Well don't have the other bit anymore so... maybe there is someone out there who already has a frame and wants the tongue. Frame itself can be used for to attach number of things, like towbar, bike rack, etc.

    You'll need to have a frame already installed on your car where you can plug this in. Will post up weight ratings when I get home - don't have them here with me.
  5. Selling removable towbar from my e46. TradeMe
  6. + 1 - thought this was the current rule. And I've never seen anyone do it otherwise.

    E30 Baur

    Here is another one 320 with M Tech body kit, looks very nice, but 294000 kms Visit My Website Carjam says The vehicle has been issued an exemption licence. The vehicle cannot be driven on the road with this licence. http://www.carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=MR244
  8. And add on yearly maintenance costs for 11 year old e46
  9. You only have them for high beams tho?
  10. Yep found and read that yesterday afternoon... good thing I didn't place an order beforehand. Too bad, I really like the look.
  11. Take it back anyway. Maybe they'll replace it.
  12. What pisses me off the most is that if I was to go out now and do smash and grab on someone's car, chances of me being caught and ending up in court would be close to 0, yet they don't have a problem sending out court fines to people because someone else f*d up.
  13. Im asuming you tried it on different pc? If so might be stuffed
  14. What service pack is your XP? Have a look at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=836618 Or it just could be that a drive is dead.
  15. Here is what happens when you have a bunch of incompetent bureaucrats working for the government. After I sold my E34, the new owner had managed to commit a parking offense before the ownership details were changed. So as I was still a registered owner at the time, I got sent a $60 fine from Manukau City Council. Rang them up, explained what the situation was, and they said ok, all we need is the new owner's address in order to transfer the fine out of my name. I sent them the new owner's details, and have received a letter saying that they will take no further action against me. This letter was received on 3rd August. Few days later arrives payment reminder from Manukau City Council. I rang them up to ask what the story was, and was told that it was just an automatic thing done by the system, and that there is nothing to worry about. So far so good, until yesterday, when I received Notice of Court Fine from the Ministry of Justice - asking for original $60 plus another $30 for the court costs. I rang the Ministry, and was basically told that they don't know anything about it and that I need to take up the issue with Manukau City Council. So I call MCC to ask what is happening, the person I spoke to had no idea, and was told they'll ring me back today. So I get a call from them today, and they tell me that I need to call Ministry of Justice and request form 57 to fill in. So I call the Ministry, only to be told that I have to physically go to the district court to fill in the form. So I went to the court today, filled the form and provided a copy of the original letter that said no further action is going to be taken against me. Now all that info is going to be sent to Manukau District Court, and hopefully they will sort it out in the next couple of weeks. I mean this is just f**in unbelievable. I've got better things to do than wait around in a district court just because a bunch of bureaucrats can't even do their job properly. I'm so pissed off that I'd want to sue them for wasting my time. I just hope that there is at least one sane person in the whole system and that I wont have to waste any more of my time on this bs.
  16. They would, but I still like yellow more Does anyone here have a yellow film over their headlights? Would be good to see some pics even if not on e46.
  17. Well yeah thats what I'm not sure about. I couldn't find any decent pics (especially for the lamin-x) so its hard to tell, but looking at the sample on their website, may not be dark enough. Visit My Website Their whole kit (which includes headlight, indicator and fog light films) is US$49.95 plus US$11.95 for shipping.
  18. I'm looking at something like this: Visit My Website Safeguard your headlight without harming the great look of your BMW 3 Series. LaminX headlight cover protective film is the clear way to stop lens-cracking enemies from creating a hefty replacement bill of more than $300 per light. The secret to LaminX headlight cover protective film is pressed, polished thermoplastic that's custom-cut to the exact dimensions of your lights. Also using a very forgiving adhesive backing for a tight fit, plus makes installation a breeze. Although I wouldn't want to make the indicators yellow, just the headlights. Like the look, like this one

    Hard part is explaining to the mrs why I need to spend 10k on buying another car
  21. TradeMe This is sex. If this one was up in Auckland I'd be really tempted.
  22. Good luck, I want to quit as well, tried a few times but never managed more than few days.
  23. Although its definitely not my thing, I appreciate time and effort. But why use an M5? Its just a waste, its not like you'd take show car out on the race track, plain standard 520 would have been good enough for this.

    Gran Turismo 5

    True, but on the other hand Forza 4 might be coming out next year so... The only issue I have with Forza 3 as I mentioned is the repetition of most tracks, so it just kinda feels like playing FM2 again.

    Gran Turismo 5

    Now the question is Forza 3 or GT 5? I've got bored with Forza 3, main reason being is that most of the tracks are the same as in FM2. So might be tempted to swap my Xbox for PS3.
