What a steal! Seriously, are dealers stupid? Yes its low KM (but probably high engine hours), but likely has jatco jerk, and isnt even true motorsport spec. Also, did e36 ever get electric memory seats? http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1044886328.htm

Looks to be in great condition, but is it really worth getting over a decent E38 at a similar price?

Not many people agree with me, but i feel that the V10 M5 is the worst sounding M5 of the lot. Doesnt sound like a V10, just sounds ugly. Its also not much of a looker. The E39 is a fantastic looking car, and that engine/trans.... mmm.

Wow, thats was quick! Wonder if it stayed in NZ?

I changed my mind. I want to see an M57TUD30... tuned with lots of boost and fuel.

Blue. Yellow. Red. Lots of colors better than boring bloody silver! As much as i want to say "that price is crack money, bitches be crazy".... thats a proper collectors car there. I wouldnt even want to drive it much for fear of putting km on it. Its immaculate. Bit of a shame he used stock images or engine bay and interior though. Dont like stock images.

lol, so even more useless in NZ then

haha, i wasnt, just came up in the recently listed list.

Its like Inception. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/honda/auction-1042107348.htm

i dont get why they dont just do both lanes. Monday, do 100m left lane. Tuesday, do 100m right lane. Wednesday do another 100m left lane. So on and so forth. I understand they dont want to close the road completely and do both at once.

ah, didnt click that it was the cooling system that was still sludging. nevermind then. Ill learn to read properly one day I dont recall, but did you remove and flush the radiator and back flush the heater core?

did you replace the torque converter? dont think you could ever properly flush that, so probably coming from there.

Add a brake light switch to your list of issues then?

Now that i know a single yellow line dividing lanes going in he same direction is a thing, i can think of plenty of places where it should be used (SH2 at Petone, northbound in the 80k zone where Priests Ave intersects. have had a few close calls there with people changing lanes wiithout indicating, into the gap that im taking off into). The road code says you cannot cross a yellow line to pass, but it say nothing about crossing it to change lanes. I went over this section of road earlier and yes there is a slight height difference between lanes, but they have smoothed it out and you would have to be trying hard to have an issue crossing it. Mind you, with the driving skills of 90% of the drivers here, i can see why they did it (not that the line matters, i still have people cross it to cut me off).

im never in the LH lane through there so havent driven over it, but i cant imagine it would be that bad? Either way, its confusing. It also makes me wonder why they bothered to do just one lane in the first place.

in regards to my earlier comment, the new single yellow line dividing the lanes on SH2 northbound is a temporary line in place whilst they do some work. It is a no passing line. Sauce: NZTA Wellington Twitter f**k that, it makes no sense. Its a straight bit of road, both lanes going the same way, on a motorway. How will stopping people changing lanes keep workers safe? GTFO.

Also LOL, i see you have listed your other one too. Cant imagine there has ever been another time in the history of TM that a single user has had two E39 M5s forsale at the same time. Both look amazing, very jealous. Good luck with sale.

i dont want to sound like a dick, and its just for my curiosity, i know these engines use oil, its a given, but what is considered normal consumption for them?

Thats not even a Motorsport interior, so not even a real motorsport spec.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1039910591.htm I have no words.

I see they have started to resurface some of SH2 northbound past the interchange. Only done the LH lane, but at least they did it in hot mix. What i dont understand is why there is now a single solid yellow line between the lanes.

Its only $211 a week over 36 months..... If only finance wasnt a bad idea, and the better half wouldnt kill me.

i'd buy it in a heartbeat, but its also well out of my price range. I suspect thats the same for a lot of people.

i'd love to see it with a TT N54B30

haha, i literally wouldnt be able to get it in my driveway, i have a sharp 90 degree entrance, a LWB would be too long to get around it.
