  1. I never offered my opinion on which was "best". However, with Ferrari it would have to be currently the 599GTB 0.05sec slower to 100kph than the Enzo and with civility to match. However, this does not make it the greatest Ferrari of all time. That is entirely down to opinion. Like trying to name the best driver. Up until last year, Michael Schumacher, whether you like him or not.
  2. Yes E: and like Grant, I was imaginative. cainchapman and the Blues!
  3. The 412S and 212 Barchetta are lovely too.
  4. 575 they're so last century. You should have seen the 599 at Taupo. I hope to have the film developed tomorrow. Andy (Booth) had to slum it in the Maser Gransport.
  5. Good job. Glad to hear it. I'll see you all at the Police auction then.
  6. Who knows whether they will or not. But the definitely can ticket you for this infringement.
  7. That thing is awesome! At lot cheaper than slotting in an S42 I bet. For the dicks that got pink slipped. Take note, that's the kind of thing you should try, not slamming it to the ground.
  8. Yes, has anyone bought the NZ Europlates from germanplates.com. Jazzbass has answered the question. If they are stickers, I'd like them square. Thanks for the help all. Might have to get some.
  9. Why not? http://www.landtransport.govt.nz/vehicles/...dification.html This link may help you find a certifier near you
  10. The ENGINEER who did the job for you should be able to certify it for you. They know the law and are responsible for their work.
  11. phishing on for me. Add ons, no idea
  12. So, has anyone bought the NZ German plates? Are they any good. I'd happily buy them. Plates are ripping us off with the pricing they are offering.
  13. I'm using ie7 and mine is running about normal for dial-up. I guess, I'm used to everything running slowly whilst I replicate notes though. Hanging out to get back to my broadband.
  14. Go to the next BMW Car Club event and ask there. http://www.bmwclub.org.nz/index.php?categoryid=2 There are a few nice ones around.
  15. I'm with Will and Kerry on this too. Good job. Modify your car as much as you like. I'm all for it. Just do it properly. Fog lights are a pain in the arse on the whole. I don't dispute, that properly set fogs look good on the BMW, however, changing the suspension will change where they point. The worst I've found is the HSV utes, put a bit of weight in the back and they are blinding.
  16. I'm assuming that you only want the tyres for road use and not high speed work. Buy the best tyres you can. If Jimocles is offering a good deal, go with whatever he can offer.
  17. Go and see John Hamilton for a kart. I'm unsure if any of ours are up for sale yet. Carrs Rd is a fun track.
  18. Andrew, join the AA mate. They'll bring it home for you. or call car haulaways and get a quote. I could pass through Taupo tomorrow, but am on my way to the Mount until maybe Wednesday.
  19. Get a KT100. The best fun you can have with your pants on. Within reasonable $$ range. $1500 won't buy you a competitive kart though. But you can learn your trade there.
  20. It's a male dog I'm picking as it's pissing on the house (or something else, just out of shot) Nice looking collection of cars. I'll be up there this week-end it seems.
  21. Sam was alluding to the fact that the household income of a bunch of students could equal $100k. That is still the total household income and nothing to do with the Median, Mean or Modal Average of the individuals within the household. Nontheless, I'm sure that a household of students will spend more on their cars each year than I will. Country Road sell baby clothes and there is no doubt that my daughter costs me more to cloth than my 540 costs to maintain and service each year now. Unless the question is clear and concise, the answer will be meaningless. I'd feel that asking what my income was and then what the household income was would give a better idea of how much I might have at my disposal to spend on my toys, as Deb doesn't surf Bimmersport, nor spend money on toys for the BMW.
  22. Hard to diagnose the EDC. My car has it. send me an e-mail [email protected] and I'll send oyu the information I have on it. Cheers
  23. Unless I am a polygamist, how do I get a Median Household income? My Mean household income is the answer I gave. Sorry if this throws out your results.
  24. You will purchase a 740i cheaper than a 540i due to the perception of size and fuel consumption. Find the best of either you can find and buy that. I like all the kit the iL's have and would love one. I definitely don't have room for a 7 in the driveway though at the moment.
