  1. Ron aren't you about 80 years old? If so, surely you're old enough to realise everything's about money. BMW might sell you the emotive ultimate driving machine lifestyle but in reality they are in it for one thing. You can question the global strategy but to do so smells of arrogance and shortsightedness. The company isn't catering to your needs so it must be going down the gurgler? haha yeah right
  2. woah damn this is orders of magnitude more desirable than an e30 M3 for me
  3. I can't remember his name but didnt that douche who got banned several times years ago own that thing?
  4. What other big ideas have you got mate? There must be some real good stuff going on upstairs with gems like that

    meddling with interior trim and door cards... all the best with that horrendous task!
  6. I'd take the e60 everytime. And the v10 sounds better

    Which do you see

    Not creative. Saw both. Sorry guys.
  8. on the contrary - My flatmate just went to a driver training day at pukekohe with his work. In the emergency braking exercise half the punters gently applied the brake pedal, failed to engage ABS and consequently sailed through the cones at warp speed. Amazing.
  9. From energy trendz monthly: https://www.energylink.co.nz/sites/default/files/Energy%20Trendz%2081%20Dec-15.pdf Crude is down another 20% since. From the chart, if crude was free a litre of 91 would still cost $1.50
  10. 3.0i petrol will really struggle towing. Get the 4.4 - all the torque you will ever need. 3.0d is the most sensible/versatile option but the price reflects that. how tidy is this!?
  11. How anyone watched F1 this year is beyond me. MotoGP on the other hand !!
  12. Gender:Male Name: Matt Location:Auckland (South) Sounds pretty typical !
  13. Spark's annual consumption was less than 200 GWH in 2014. Tiwai consumes ~5400 GWH per year - serviced mostly by Manapouri (~600MW) Glenbrook steel mill, Kawerau pulp and paper and Fonterra round out the top 4.

    Our beer fridge is stacked full. Swing by sometime mate
  15. get out of there. sh*t areas rarely improve
  16. Thread goes downhill in 3...2...1...
  17. Not constant due to leap seconds/years? Ignoring that a day is the time for the earth to rotate once relative to the sun. A year is the time taken for the earth to complete one orbit around the sun. Pretty good bases for measurement in my opinion. My subaru outback 2.5 does 15l/100km around town. DRZ400 does 6l/100km. I might as well buy a V8 with those numbers.
  18. Contractual mistakes act is the relevant law- a) you entered into the contract aware of the sellers mistake fulfillment of the contract would result in a substantially unfair exchange of values So you're gonna struggle to win that one in court. Perhaps try to find a middle ground with the guy, he might be ignorant of his position and therefore happy with a compromise.
  19. polish and Rain-x game on point!
  20. I'm in need of a torque wrench. It will be used mainly for wrenching on motorcycles but it would be good if it was sized appropriately for cars as well. Any suggestions? I'm not looking for the best quality and it wont get used a whole lot... I just want something that wont fall to bits in 5 years time. cheers
  21. I hope I never meet you... Especially on the road

    yes Glenn is right, I would happily pay good money for one of those I haven't seen one come up in a while and the last I saw went for about $30k... almost giving it away if you ask me
