Same reason as new break pads I guess. I am guilty of typing brought instead of bought.

I had to comment π -
Colour coded rear panel looks different. I think I like it.
-
Free car listings on trademe last weekend - keep an eye out, they may offer it again soon.

I probably have some random toolkit spares I can donate if you're not bothered about collecting them bit by bit.

I reckon a set of coils and a good run could see that right. -

I've often wondered why buyers expect I should drop my sale price to pay for their travel. π

I recently brought a car from Christchurch and I'm an hour north of Wellington. Some flights and ferry crossings are pretty cheap right now. I would fly up and drive back. No way it will cost that much. Check the general discussion for shop recommendations although personally I think the AA is fine. Nothing cryptic about these cars and the AA can spot a leak.

The car market is quiet. It seems like a good deal, although I personally couldn't live with those wheels. Check the service history for waterpump, gaskets, etc and also what brand of tyres and how much life left on them then make an offer.

You might have missed the engine in that one? Bit 'specalised' potentially

There's a ton of them on trademe

Bad timing then? Yes, mine is re-listed - mostly trying to get value for money from trademe. I'm under no pressure to sell, the car is under sheets but I could always do with the garage space. I have another two BMW's on the drive plus the wifes beater (read that carefully). Car juggling is getting old. I've had some interest in the 130 and probably half a dozen genuine ono but I'm quite firm on $11. Car is easily worth that to me, and if it isn't to others, then I'm quite happy to hold onto it until it is haha. Prices seem to be generally holding.

Been doing my own 'detailing'. Removed all the swirls of light scratches in the clear coat. Touched up a couple of chips, etc. Found some sparkle in the paint I didn't know was there! Approx 2 days work and $70 of consumables with a borrowed supercheap $150 buffer. Good enough when compared to the $500 I was quoted.

You can't see grit, but if you've driven on clear roads, then they've been done. The gritting trucks used to wake me up during winter at 4am in London as I lived on the South Circular lol

I use one of the Bluetooth senders. Was $10 and you have a miriad of software choices through different phone apps.
-
Cheap but too far for me unfortunately πͺ
-
Naa unfortantely. It sounds like the rear muffler has been gutted or replaced with something inapproriate (it drones like crazy)
-
For a coupe. The nearer Wellington the better thanks. π
-
Someone got a good deal. Niceπ
-
I appreciate that, but you made up the 5% figure no?
-
I would be asking more for that personally...
