Looking for driver's and front passenger's seats in the Pacific Blue Highland cloth (hounds tooth pattern). bmwwgn@gmail.com

Note that Ray's car has had both engine and transmission transplants - it started life as an auto. Does this make it worth more than the original car with its original engine and transmission? I think not.

kodachrome - how's progress with your importation?

Thanks for that link.Interesting that there were only ever a maximum of 142 RHD CSi's licensed in the UK (1999). That leaves 18 others, of which one was the single Alpina B12 5.7, and seven were the non-UK spec cars that went to HKG (2), Singapore (2) and Australia(3) - two of these cars are now in NZ. That leaves 10 other RHD CSi's unaccounted for at that time. Incidentally, one of the UK cars went to Kenya in around 2000, and is now for sale by its second owner, with 13k miles on the clock. Asking price is around $NZ98k. http://kenyacarbazaar.com/car_details.php?...mp;model=850CSi

kodachrome, let us know when your car is here and all sorted. We are about to launch the NZ E31 8-series register, so it would be good to add your CSi to the list. Currently there are six 850CSi's in NZ, including one race car (ex-UK, Lagoon green) and the aforementioned ex-UK (Daytona violet) CSi that has not yet been complied.

Thanks for posting all the pics, and Brent for the video's. It was a great day and an impressive turnout. I enjoyed getting to know my car in this well organised and controlled environment - I'll be back next year! Here are a few of the pics that I took. http://s1132.photobucket.com/albums/m572/N...r/Taupo%202011/ Cheers

Need an original spec power antenna for my 88 525ee. Must be in good nick and operate smoothly.

Just an update of my fleet. I no longer have the E39 wagon, having replaced it with two E28's: 1987 E28 M5 (SA-spec) 1988 525ee

Similar problem on my 94 530iA, but not quite so bad: Driver's door will not respond to remote central locking. Also will not lock when key locking via passenger's door or boot. However key locking driver's door will lock everything. Seems like a lack of electrons to the driver's door locking actuator - any similar experiences out there, or a simple fix? Note: car had a Mongoose alarm installed which has been deactivated/removed. Cheers.

That would be me = battling the Friday traffic on my way home.What car do you have?

Thanks for the welcome westy.Sorry about the picture size - have now resized.

I'm on the North Shore, AKL, so with the daily commute in a manual, I'm not sure what would wear out quicker - the clutch or my left leg!

Thanks - I'll get a manual when I eventually find my dream car - E28 M5. But for a daily driver I prefer the auto. Cheers.
