Go to the best Euro painter in Wellington and get him to do an insurance quote. It will cost a lot more than $500.00 for a proper paint job, so pay the excess and get the best possible job done. Because it was malicous damage done by another party, you shouldn't lose your no-claims bonus.

So what would you let it go for?

Is this your auction

As a car dealer, I am able to source all that info and a lot more also.

It may have come last, but want one of those garden sheds.

I hear Elton John is recording a tribute song for Osama. It's called "Sandal in the Wind".

I have been waiting for an interior from an E36 M3 coupe in black leather with Vader seats for a long time. My name is at the top of the list with a lot of BMW wreckers but still no interior. HellBM did have a set of ivory ones recently so if you want them then contact Ray, otherwise just hang in there sunshine, you might get lucky.

It's a 4 door, that's why it's that price. Coupes and convertables are worth a lot more

This is a clip made by Cadillac in China. Some nice stunt and formation driving. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=SbuDRA4zNbw Enjoy!

Nice looking car, good k's etc but he's dreeaming about the price.

David, we have a monthly Bimmersport meet on the third Thursday of each month at The Coffee Club in Botany Junction at 6.30/7.00pm. We have a meal and a couple of drinks. You're welcome to attend and hope to see you there next month.

Welcome to Bimmersport David. You can glean a whole lot of useful information about your Beemer here. What part of Auckland sre you from?

The cars vin number won't show the options that the car was built with. That information can be sourced by taking the vin number to either a BMW dealer or an authorised BMW service centre.

Contact Johno (zenetti) from Mag&Tyre. He always has a good range at very affordable prices.

^^^^ I agree wholeheartedly driftit.

There are plenty of threads here about manual conversions so look them up. You say you need pedal boxes, slave cylinders etc, but have you got a gear box yet? If not, then bide your time, conversion kits come up for sale in the For Sale section here from time to time.

A great turnout tonight, well over 140 cars, but only two BMW's, but at least they were Bimmersporters. Meguiars are sending $15,000.00 from tonlghts effort to Christchurch, and by the end of the month when this promotion ends, they expect this to total at least $20,000.00. Well done Meguiars.

No it's not. It's just the body moulding/trim that sits in the bumper. The part you screw your number plate to.

All I can show you is a pic of my car at the Show'n'Shine but it is a 96 323 ///M coupe the part is in excellent order and I am only replacing it because I am fitting a Euro Plate version of the part.

Hi Jack, Ring me on 021 393334. I am taking the plate holder off my car and putting a Euro one on in the next week or two, so my old one will be available. Edit: I have just spoken with Team McMillen and my part is coming from oversaes and will be about 7-10 working days before it arrives.

There were no injuries so why wait around.Just exchange names and addresses and go on your way.

Happy Birthday Simon, Have a few coldies today and pretend one's my shout.

Contact Ray at HellBM on 021 243 5526 He usually has that sort of thing in stock.

First off Cleary24, where do you live? Put that on your profile because it helps us to recommend mechanics etc. in your vicinity. You have asked a lot of questions in your post, but the most important advice I can give is, once you have picked out the car you want to buy, then get it checked by a BMW specialist. Do not go to AA or othercar inspection places as a car such as BMW need specialist equiptment to diagnose problems and these are usually only carried by European specialists. Models with half leather are usually motorsport models, and the choice of leather or cloth interiors was made by the first purchaser. Most NZ new beemers are full leather whereas the Japanese don't like leather and the majority of Jap imports come with Velour seats.

Have you not realised that Repco means Rip Every Poor C**T Off.
