  1. Looking for one seat only. Auckland based.
  2. I did suspect that. But I sometimes tend to be as clueless as a Choir boy in a Whore house.
  3. People buying replica wheels that are out of production for a long time makes no difference to the Company going Bankrupt. There's other factors such as mismanagement & poor marketing which is probably what was the cause of the downfall. The Corona virus just accelerated it. Look at Rolex watches for example. How many people wear fake Rolex watches? But Rolex still does well because of the marketing and the hype. P.S. Genuine BBS RS wheels are more over priced than houses in Auckland. BBS should have brought these wheels (15"/16") back into production seeing the demand for them.
  4. I just bought one but if it doesn’t work will msg you.
  5. That Chrome SMG Badge seems to go up in value more than an E30 M3 on trademe.
  6. I loved the DCT in my E92 335i when I had it. Really fun to drive. Dinan/H&R springs but make sure you upgrade the shocks too. Bilstein B8 are worth it.
  7. Those 135i are such fun cars. Manual/DCT?
  8. AC Schnitzer Wheels especially 3 piece on that E36 would be epic!

    BBS RS 003

    Hi, I am looking for a genuine set of BBS RS 003 16inch. Regards,
  10. E28 M535i Auto - €19,900!! WTF?
  11. The good thing about VTNZ is no appointment necessary and it was for the Suzuki Swift. Pretty sure it was $59.00 last year.
  12. $67.00 for a WOF check at VTNZ. And an hour long waiting time.
  13. My experiences so far with Turner have been really good.
  14. Good luck with 130i being economical. And if you are paying $7k for one, expect to spend $1-2k on preventive maintenance.
  15. Looking for a Blaupunkt RDS BP6262 or similar BMW radio cassette player. Thanks
  16. Looking for a 370mm Mtech 1 steering wheel. Any condition. Regards,
  17. Free. Sms me on 0211804565
  18. Free to pick up. From Central Auckland. Came off an E30 325i. AC Schnitzer style tip.
  19. Thanks mate. btw, my love for old BMWs was renewed in Indonesia after not having owned a single car for almost 5 years. Saw a black E23 on BBS dish, it was stunning! There have been some epic Barn finds in that country. Two E30 Alpinas and one actual E9 CSL race car with actual racing history that almost got forgotten about.
  20. Yes!!! Oh man. I can’t forget the look on the driver of the white E30 we went past. He couldn’t believe his eyes, hahaha. That was a mint day for it too. We should organise a drive to Piha. Perfect roads for these cars. Just gotta watch out for Lycra gang on their Uber expensive carbon bikes. Honestly, Lycra on men should be frowned upon like speedos.
  21. Thanks mate. You should come to the BMW meets. Haha, exactly! That’s what I was thinking - what would I replace her with? I have an E30, would love an E24 too. I am gonna take it to a good paint shop and get the bumpers and bonnet sorted. Too many stone chips.
  22. Sorry everyone, I have been a bit slack with responding to messages. I have decided to keep the car. I had an offer of $20k (yes you read that right) on the table but couldn’t let it go. I love driving this car too much. I will be listing an E92 335i shortly.
  23. When a M car shows up in a Porno - perfect excuse to give to the missus.
