M325i, stroked to 2.7, offered on Facebook. $45k.

Two(?) years ago that would have bought a M3.

Its also tag swapped.. 

@leichtbau Funny you say that, when I looked at buying this car and took the initial photos the owner told me he was going to put a rotary in it. 

Originally the vehicle came from Northland 11+ yrs ago and in the engine bay it has a lot of aftermarket wiring and aftermarket gauges around the speedo cluster. 
 

Have this photo saved for anyone that missed out

I've used Colourlock before and it works a treat. 

This is what I've purchased in the past: https://www.colourlockleathercare.co.nz/shop-now/product/10-leather-fresh-repair-kit 

I’ve seen this car in person, it’s the real deal but needs ALOT of work to get it back to its former glory and fetch those M325i prices.

Hasn't seen the road in 11+yrs, so it’s really a ground up build - surprisingly the body doesn’t have too much rust.

With the prices of M20’s, Its more suited for a repower project. 
 

Hey mate, PM me. Mines pretty much identical, higher kms but I’ve had mine valued for insurance purposes a couple of months back. Cheers, Andrew

Sure do.

Followed you going up Siberia Hill a little while ago and remembered the plate, keep up the updates 😊

Nice M3, makes me wish I never sold mine a couple of years ago. 

Odd question, do you live in Beachlands ?

It said it was sold pending payment last night. I admire the hustle to finance a 30 year old car and then make $1K a month on it.

Anyone know what it sold /listed for  ?

E30 market vs AKL property market 😳

Unfortunately 'm in both 🤣

Did the listing get pulled ? 

@Ghost Chip called the owner at 5.30pm yesterday and he said it was already sold. Not sure who got it. If anyones selling the seats let me know

Either a bargain or a $3000 donor car

It’s sold now 

Anyone keen to sell me a set ? 😛

The gods were on my side for once, and finally picked up one of the 96's hellrot red 540IS on the weekend (not the unicorn, but I aint complaining). Great to find out it came with the M PACK! Car just needs a re spray, which will be done over the next month or two. Ahhhhhhhhhhh, the feeling of owning a E34 540IS, something to treasure for a life time. 

So you got it, what a deal it was !!!

I was trying to buy this as well.  Glad someone in the community got it in the end -  make sure you keep us updated

Welcome @E28E30

Your right, I didn’t even pick up on that red one missing the sunroof. There must be a few different combos around as my NZ New has a sunroof but doesn’t have headrests or high stop lamp.

All coming out of the woodwork now

Why doesn’t this have a sunroof ? I thought all genuine M325i’s have them.

Deposit paid in under 24hours, does look very good though

My friends old car, he sold it 2 months ago.. Then that buyer sold it again - my friend had a feeling this would happen but is what it is. 

Imported via Hong Kong - car had a little rust issues here and there but in good condition overall. It was advertised for 28k now jacked to 48k because hes taken a deposit. 

Makes me happy keeping my E30 😎

My cars twin! 

This car advertised came from Hastings to Auckland about May/June this year, it wasnt ever offically advertised on the market but i was in talks with the family before it was sold - I know how much he got it for ?

Its crazy to think how much these are going for now, i sold my M325i Tech1s for about 5-6k around 2010. 

Not sure what calipers are fitted, will have to check 

From memory it was about $1500 installed, special order from Germany 

Thanks @Sammo

@catchuk no spacers are fitted to these photos, weird how yours don’t fit mine are just straight bolt on. Yes they are 1.5 & 2.5 inch lips. 

No real updates of the car as its in long term container storage while we get our house built 

Hi Folks, any idea how much these are going for now -  “Real Numbers” ? 

Ask them for a bulk deal, they were going to do me discount for a group buy scenario a few months ago. 

I wonder what that gauge is for in the centre console 

Hey, whats your budget ? I know of 1 possibly 2 owners that might be interested to sell.
