BMW POWER

Paul, You seem to have a knack for digging threads from the grave. First the old 320, now this.. hahaIt was all sorted, i think it was something about that they were actually aftermarket anyway. It is very amusing and embarassing seeing how ignorant & childish i was back in the days of being a newbie, and my use of smileys was very O.T.T.

what if I told you , "from Volkswagen to Audi to Porsche to BMW to Mercedes-Benz"Ive been there , done them all You must like German cars! Well cars all together really.From what you know when you worked at BMW, what sort of work do the Technicians do on a day-to-day basis?

it was a heap of junk sorry It was indeed, brought shame to the BMW name, that one.

Hey!!, Your spot on there Emma, Yes its Paul & Yes , of course we have met Aliluya!!(infact, Ali, there was something you asked about , that I'm never sure if I told you about & that was the alloy pedal covers that are showen in the accessories catologe, that were not listed on the EPC , I contacted BMW head office for you who came back to me to say that in genuine form, these are only avaliable for left hand drive. thinking about this, you could still use the pedal covers , just not the foot rest part of the kit. it was available ex Germany at a price which escapes me at the moment If your wondering where I have gone, I'm now parts manager at the local Mercedes-benz dealership here in Dunedin, but thats another story How ironic is that.. from BMW to Mercedes you should have stayed at Cookies.How did you find your way onto bimmersport?

It was a shocker all right. Did you hear the cop saying "That heap of junk"

A quote from vonripsnorters other post. So he doesn't work at Cooke Howlison, he either worked there, or at a different dealer.I think its Paul, The ex-parts manager from Cooke Howlison.

Another double post, But could this please be deleted now because of its total irrelevance since the E39 has filled its space, Thanks Mods Emma.

Do the plates "EVLM3" come with the car? How much are you after in a ballpark figure?

Yeah that is an awesome swap, looks really good. Now we need someone to nick Martyns engine and put it in an E30.

Thanks for that, I will talk to him next time i'm at Cooke Howlison. I read you other post in Maintenence, I'm not being snoopy or anything but what did you do at BMW, Were you a Technician? Thanks for the compliment on the E39, it really does beat the E36, i love it.

And i spot a MTECH steering wheel.

Wow 280 or so MB on a 56k, I didn't even attempt that.

I thought that this thread had been deleted anyway because its so outdated.

Hello there.I'm sorry but as you might have read that now that is an extremely old post. I was just a newbie who didn't know what i was talking about back then, now i am older and wiser i have come to realise that that was very much the wrong thing to say. I apologise fully to Cooke Howlison BMW for that and, well come to think of it what the hell was i thinking when i said that? I fully regret it. Yes i have read about Brian ( i think in the BMW Magazine) going to Germany, but i didn't realise that he came 3rd in the world.. wow that is an excellent acheivement, and to have him right here in Dunedin is even better. I have also read about Gavin Brindle who was Apprentice of the year from Jerry Claytons, thats also an excellent acheivment. Now comes the question, Do you work at Cooke Howlison? I will edit my post, and full apologies i can not even beleive i wrote such a stupid thing As for my becoming a Tecnician, i wrote a letter to BMW HQ NZ in request for a booklet from them about careers with BMW. I haven't recieved a reply, but that doesn't matter, i was told to talk to Ross Farquhar about it when i am 15. Who is John Marsh? Thanks. Emma.

Now that is sexy. I will be running a mile down to the dealer if thats what is being put out Naked sweat drips.. To much scrubs hey ryan?

We'll thats what i was trying to say, but then i found this:

If the M3's gonna look something alone those lines.. i'm running a mile. Looks too much like a Hyundai Tiburon..

How about a nice set of basketweaves just to get the whole original look going.. Leather interior with sports seats?

Just like most threads around here lately it seems its turning into "A big ball of bitch" How about leave the guy alone to sell his car .. like NOW.. How would you guys feel if you car got bogged down with replica talk nonsense? Oh yeah and mods, please don't delete this because its not a bullshit post, like the other one or imne you's deleted which was also fully legitimate.

Why may i ask?

Its called a family outing, ever heard of it? Anyways ratings= gay, no one listens to them, least of all me.Any way it wasn't that great, give it a 3/10 for trying

I'm not going to argue about it or anything, but if your looking at a car with no service history whatsoever aren't you gunna wonder about it just a little bit?

Yeah i know you can do it yourself. But wouldn't you rather have FSH from a BMW dealer or something for resale value? Oh and u can buy service reset tools for like $80

Well going to see it on Sunday with Dad. Verdict when i get back from it

Hey Happy Birthday, Have a good one Emma
