    Just in case you weren't aware of them, we have a couple of these in our car. Not BMW official but do the job.

    We used to use some clear plastic things to protect the back of the front seats too but they looked like sh*t so now we just wipe them clean as part of the cleaning process and are getting by ok like that.

    @jjs Retro style is a big part.

    What surprises my is how normal 190E's and W124's have not taken off at all - I guess they historically have had an 'older' image and are almost all automatic but for a retro cruiser, amazing value for money with build quality, style and great interiors.

    I'm a one eyed E30 fan but would take a nice 190E over an auto 4 door 318i.

    W124's should be worth way more. Especially 300Es with the M103, have I got a deal for you! :)

    I sold my CSIi a little while back now and I’m doing a clear out so looking to get rid of the spare set of wheels. They are 205/60 R14s. The tyres will be no good as they are very old. I’m not sure what else they fit I’m afraid, early 5 and 6 series should work.

    Mainly looking to get them moved so not sure on pricing, $100 for all 4?

    Bet this thing screams! Wicked car - was chatting to owner on FB while I was looking a few months back but wasn't for sale then, or I would have been all over it.

    217hp without stroking must be pushing the ceiling of the B25? wonder how a 302 cam would be on the street...

    Anyone know any more about this vehicle?

    Yes, by NZ New RHD drive I am looking for vehicles converted here at the time. I would be open to a vehicle that has been imported later and converted but that would be subject to the quality of the conversion. Due to the rule changes it is significantly less common for vehicles to be converted these days so realistically the most likely way to find a RHD model is to find one of the ones converted at the time. I have other LHD vehicles and due to how much I hope to drive this I would definitely prefer it be RHD.

    The answer to other options is to go on to other vehicles I have on my "to buy" list, some which vary greatly from this and some of which do not. If I simply can't find what I want I may just give up and buy a LHD one but probably not. When you take something that is a small inconvenience but multiply by it by a lot of times it becomes a big one. If the E30 path doesn't work then I might buy an E46 M3 if I can find the right one. Or buy another CSL and manual convert it this time. I'm kind of looking for an E39 M5 too. I imagine that any other option I go for would be simply for a few years whereas if I can find the right E30 M3 then I intend on keeping it forever.

    I don't suppose you know the details of the RHD one, ie if it is NZ new, has a sunroof and AC? I wouldn't want to waste this person's time if it isn't right.

    Not to sound flippant but I don't need this vehicle, if I can't find exactly what I am looking for then I will move on to a different option.
