    lots! music, movies motorbikes....all the M's! fast cars, loose women and the odd drink. Had enough of dull cars so recently decided to change from boring 90's honda for a 1988 320i. Crazy maybe, but as they say you should do something every day that scares you! That what motorbikes are for!!!
  1. ....by that I mean several of the E30's on Trade Me have mentioned it, and guess what, just found out mine has stopped. Is there an easy fix? Is there a hard fix? Thanks in advance for your help!
  2. May sound odd but my new toy has a frosted high beam lens and it will not get a WOF with it. Do I a) pull it apart and try to clean it or look for a second hand one? Anyone else come across this?
  3. Hi folks....love this place, have found it really useful. Question time. Need new suspension bushes for a e30 320. Seems from what I have read the nolathene bushes are the way to go. While I do not wish to compromise to much on quality I was just curious as to the price of these over other options? Also where/who is the best place to buy bushes from. Found a couple listed here in Welly in the old Yellow pages, but am always keen to draw on the knowledge of those that have gone before me! Cheers David
  4. Thanks Jon, Saw that drama with the 2 door. Even had a bid or two....nothing to lose I thought. The other 2 door looks not too bad but I have not heard back from vendor. Drove a couple here, one on Sunday and one Wednesday. Wednesday car was the best one I have driven yet but with quite a bit of panel damage! She's a hard road finding the perfect E30!
  5. Thanks for that. My criteria are fairly broad. I don't care about doors/gearbox choices etc as much as I do about getting something straight and relatively original.....got close to a NZ new 325 down here in Welly recently but lack of car made it hard to get a view before it sold. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=213632189 This one has held my eye for a while, but I think the price is a tad high. There is another NZ new car on TM...for 2,250. Very tidy looking. David
  6. Hi folks, after my last character-less car ended life just recently with a repair bill bigger than it's price tag I have decided I want to join your ranks and get myself something stylie!! I have decided that the E30 seems to fit my criteria....I am sure that would/could spark a fair bit of debate.....but I like them, and I have had enough of vanilla for now. Has anyone seen this add? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-218976042.htm I'm in Wellington, so buying blind as far as a chance to kick the tyres and look under the hood goes! Cheers in advance for any advice you can offer to a E30 virgin! David G
