    The Wheels Thread

    The 18” style 42 and the bbs rx both sets still for sale. As per original post. the guu above is asking about style 135 which i dont have but know that ashley had a set on the old purple clubsport. I also got a set of rs-gt staggered 18s with re003s (off our e91 wagon) and also a set of rg-r square 18s.

    Ahh i see. It almost looks like it needs a black diffuser fitted over the body color indent. Moonroofs are great!

    its really the perfect fit!!
  11. 1 of 2, or 1 of 4, still rare as heck and makes little to no difference in the grand scheme of things imo. GLWS
  12. All good thanks Cory. That is the most important at the end of the day! I did consider buying your wagon to replace it but we ended up going for something else entirely.
  13. As some of you may have seen in my other thread our trusty wagon was involved in an accident without insurance and so I will be looking to sell the car as it is to get some money back. If anyone is genuinely interested please get in touch. Healthy engine only done 53,000 kms or so. Front suspension recently overhauled with lemforder/meyle parts and still totally fine. Can include the stock suspension parts that was taken out also. Both front airbags have gone off. Chassis rails suspected damaged will need to confirm as its a bit hard to see. Car is sitting at home and can probably be driven short distance but some radiator hoses are damaged. Welcome to come take a look if you are interested. Prefer to sell complete towed/driven away at your own expense. I will update some newer photos in the next few days.
  14. wasnt expensive to buy form dealership
  15. Would love to be able to buy this and keep it forever Pics for posterity https://www.trademe.co.nz/1748533609

    honestly one of the best BMW wheels ever for me. Looks amazing man!
  17. hey mate, come jump on the facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/groups/248993522276877/
  18. ^precisely right. And that is the business model which unfortunately works in NZ because there are no or little penalties and people get a slap
  19. if you have 50k to spend then it would be totally find to get an E90 M3 for 40k ish and set aside 10k for maintenance and repairs. I would consider going for something F chassis but cant really compare it to a V8 M3 sound.. https://www.trademe.co.nz/1745416727
  20. I dont think they are scum, I think they just do their job (poorly). What annoys me is they make claims about car being fully checked and serviced just to get sales but it actually means they did basically nothing if a basic scan is not included.
  21. Dave is 100% right. This has nothing to do with mechanical insurance (which is what the dealers try to sell you in order to cover their ass not yours). "Fully serviced and ready to go" claimed by most dealerships usually means top up with any oil they have and cover it in greasy products all over the interior to make it sticky. and dont forget tyre shine!! They obviously didnt do any kind of code reading checks or diagnostics. lol.. what a joke
