  1. ^ that's assuming the maintenance had been done, at all?
  2. drove the touring to work. suspension is so much stiffer than the CC's Sport mode. for the best of both worlds, a M57 diesel E34 Touring would be best.
  3. Hey Guys, I had been suddenly offered a company car at work, and as such will have to downsize my fleet. After much deliberation and gnashing of teeth, it turns out I will have to sell 2 of my 3 vehicles. First is the 1996E34 525i Touring - $3000 ono. 266000~ KMS Has current wof and rego, airconditioning has been disconnected as the compressor has seized. Radio doesn't work, could be due to faulty headunit. Headlining is loose but isn't intrusive. usual nicks and gashes as expected of a 17 year old car. comes with 5x (including spare) 15" original basket weaves with 95% new rubber as spares, with 16" E60 rims with Michelin Pilot Sports on them, with 50-60% tread. still starts first pop even on cold days. Installed obc, comes with original clock, binnacle and spare klimat controller. Pictures to come, meanwhile here is a link to the gallery. http://imgur.com/a/pKZ2z#0 Next up, My 2011 VW Passat CC 2.0 TDi R-Line. $22000 Firm 149000kms. 5 seats, I am the 2nd owner, the first was a prolific farmer with multiple farms around the Bay of Plenty, so lots of hot running. Full leather interior, only lacks the Nav option.comes with a 4 year (from Dec last year)(transferable) Autosure EXTREME Mechanical Breakdown warranty which pretty much covers everything in the car. Pictures to come Finally, dad's 1999 Toyota Windom 2.5G V6 -$3000, 160000kms. cambelt due at 190k kms. car runs as well as you'd expect from a Toyota. comes with an alarm system. smooth easy power, good for a first car, cheap insurance. cheers!
  4. how special is special? what does he usually putter around in? I could try asking around.
  5. Rego in Singapore has gone up to $120k now. Mate's gonna give up his 6 year old Civic when it hits 10 years old and get a motorscooter
  6. Autosure's extreme cover MBI covers air suspension .... though at $10k per claim, i'm not sure if it would suffice http://autosure.co.nz/content/docs/car%20insurance/Extreme%20Summary%20Sept%202013.pdf
  7. Accidentally bought a Passat CC. I can feel my E34 weeping.

  8. the previous owner of the ML must have been fastidious! is this mainly town or mixed driving? I am quite intrigued that the SUV does better than a E350.
  9. ML350 = 8l/100kms? O_O wow. I am .... impressed. must have a light foot!
  10. Strange, I've had people tell me that the interior space in an e90 is about the same as an E34!
  11. it's awesome. how many berths does it have?
  12. and it's gone now. Withdrawn from Trademe.
  13. Have always thought of the white car being the most Alpina-like. It's a signature colour, isn't it?
  14. we'll look on the brightside henceforth.

  15. In many countries, there are restrictions to off-shore foreigners to purchasing property. like limiting them to commercial properties etc.
  16. Oh you. Technic kits were my dream as a child. twenty years on, I think nothing has changed. may you have many years of restoring your first vehicle with your kids, mate.
  17. is the airconditioning compressor the same for the e32 as for the e34?
  18. Auckland is in a location that isn't suitable for a city. the isthmus is stifling growth.
  19. You can see that none of these areas had any "town planning" with a "city" in mind. Auckland cannot stay a suburb city for any longer.

    LPG & SUVs

    what's the difference beteen the 3.5 m20 and the aussie 4.0 6? there must be some technological differences for it to have such a huge difference in fuel consumption.
  21. Brent (BMWorld.co.nz) may have them, his trademe has the regular sedan versions listed. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/bmw/engines/auction-786923543.htm
