  1. for $400 just on centre caps, I would put that money towards a set of different wheels instead..
  2. www.trademe.co.nz/1606048201 the stitched leather interior is amazing
  3. Those Avin units look really good and the functionality is far superior to the Dynavins from what I have read and seen. Also, just on a side note, I feel as though the Mpar's might be better suited to the 750i to give it a more classic look and the 740i might look even better with the BBS RC's. Wheel swap them when you have some free time and see how it looks?
  4. wow the blue/grey colour combo is beautiful and very classy
  5. The successor to the Z4M coupe?
  6. that is a great price and 6L too not 5L.
  7. Of course they wont do any testing. They will just replace it and charge a fortune. Best thing to do is keep your own records of whats been done. When oil and filter is changed, when cabin filters and air filters changed, checked/replaced brake fluid, top up washer bottle and check coolant levels, etc etc. If you have mechanical warranty then it is a requirement to get it serviced and stamped in which case you would need to take it to a certified shop instead of DIY. (different discussion) $1100-1800 for what? lol.....

    Wheels

    the style 135 is probably the most common on msport e60's. (you can find them on trademe quite easily. there is a set on there now for $600, not great condition) The wheels currently on the car pictured doesnt look like any BMW style that I know of. Must be some kind of aftermarket wheel

    Wheels

    I would say that these are NOT genuine BMW wheels.
  10. there is some validity in what he said but seems like he has "dumbed it down" to make it easier to understand/convince/trick or hes just dumb himself. How can they say your car needs a "more expensive" service without knowing what has already been done? Its not like it was serviced by them for the whole duration of the car's life so how do they know if you have replaced the cabin filters or brake pads etc? There are many ways to cut the cake, not 1 is any better than the other. IF you want hassle free motoring and dont mind paying the costs then sure, stealership services will provide that. BUT i dont trust the "last twice as long" BS. If you drive the car hard and do more mileage than the average joe, they also cant just boldly claim that their service will last longer. I personally do oil changes every 8000kms on all my vehicles. It is a small price to pay, oil can be bought for cheap (good quality and meets BMW standards) and genuine filters are also easily bought. All up costs me $100 to do it and I would rather do it this way than pay $200 per service and drive it for "twice as long" as they claim.
  11. this sums it up pretty much. I have also looked into the 335e not because I wanted one but purely because there is no petrol version on the market. I think I've only ever seen one example and didnt last long.
  12. those figures are not bad at all for a big 3L twin turbo wagon!! amazing value those F10's nowadays
  13. crazy car for a 22 year old.. wheels look to be CSL wheels
  14. What I meant is I cant afford to spend 41.5k nothing to do with what you car is worth. I think you should be getting 40k or close to it if not then hold on to it
  15. If it was closer to like 30k I wouldnt be able to resist buying it.. but thats really not a fair price for a car like this
  16. would love to buy this car..
  17. same lights as sedan so yes they did
  18. yep appears sold. An S50B32 for 17.5k (with free random red metal bits) is not a bad deal at all considering the prices of e36 m3''s

    Euro plates

    time for another thread lock. the german plate debate is just pointless now. It has been talked about way more than it needs to be.

    Euro plates

    If I get away with shoplifting doesnt mean its okay. You can try to cut the law or rule however you want but bottom line is it is not the standard government issue plates and any website selling them clearly says something along the lines of "novelty plates" or "use at own risk" etc.
  21. its a great price! comparing it to this.. https://www.trademe.co.nz/1572140830
