I second that, how much for whole car?

Nah I will go the same colour. I love it. But dammit man I am pissed,

Also called the courier company to report the incident in hopes of their insurance being able to cover the damages but alas the driver is saying the sun was in his eyes and he couldn't see me coming. Pathetic really

Yeah guys its bloody guttering. so bloody disappointing. Been driving for a couple months with the wheels on no sweat then a courier comes along and tries to come into the side of me but oh well. Off they go to get fixed next week. My usual painter is out of the scene so will have to use wheel fix it on Wairau road. Not cheap but man its gotta be done. So gutted though.

Curbed my custom painted wheels cos a courier driver thought it was okay to pull out onto me. Had to swerve hard to the right to avoid him and ended up curbing both my right side wheels. Back and front so bloody gutted. Cost me a fortune to paint and refurb. I had words with the courier driver after. This will cost a fortune to fix and paint Not a common wheel colour.

I wouldnt mind at all bruv

Wagwan bredren. Welcome

I will definitely have time for her Dave Patience is my virtue oh wise one haha

I wish I could spend more time on your car bro

Dave I wish I had as much time as you do to work on my own car (Delilah)

bump bump bump

What the actual eff. Why just why???!!!!!

And it will keep chugging all the way till the car outlasts you hahaha

Thats how we roll bruv. Come we kick blud haha

dope composition! I like her voice. She sounds versatile. Could picture her on plenty more commercial radio tracks, As far as tributes go this was extremely apt. Great writing, on topic, production is crisp and clear and a great journey comes to mind. Good stuff

Bossy as eff brah ^

That is all based on the probability of that happening, and the probability of me being behind a Bently is also something that needs to be taken into consideration. Bottom line is if everyone is so concerned about the insurance and WOF issues don't buy it or don't bid on it. To each their own. Being someone that currently has WOF facilities at my workshop and knowing the rules and regulations I can honestly say if I didn't know about the engine swap I would be none the wiser. Cheap car, good condition = bottom line, variables = personal choice and opinion

Fair enough but whos to notice it has a bigger engine if they arent extremely familiar with the differences between the 2 litre and 2.8 litre m52 engines? Its bloody hard to see with just the untrained eye either way. Wof guys really won't know the difference. The car is sweet and a bloody bargain. If the potential buyer isnt happy then get it certed. Enough said. I am bidding on it my self and hope to win the auction. If I do I can guarantee it will get a wof from vtnz or wherever without any wof testing officer pinging it for having the engine swap not certed

Lol I can see that bud. I should just chuck them on trademe but thought I'd see if anyone on here wants them because it's a shame if someone who isn't from here got em so cheap

Dave looking good bud. Excellent work bruv. I think that the car will perform so much better with the solenoids functioning as they should

From a mechanical perspective the 4 cylinder e90s are prone to oil leaks. The 6 cylinders are prone to longevity except waterpump failure and rocker cover gasket leaks on the odd occasion which should be a maintenance item. I suggest you go for a 6 cylinder in the e46 and e90 variants. 2.5 or more

Bump now come on some worn 195/45/16 toyo proxes

Awesome dude. I know the previous owner of this car. Pretty tidy car.
