i was hoping 4 k for both lol

he didn't even want 7! I was afraid he might take it. 🤣

I tried to help the situation.. i think

Got all the keywords i search for. Might be a deal? https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/5360582758?utm_source=tmm-savedsearch&utm_medium=email&bof=fffHvWD1

"i'll walk on from this price for sure. In fact i'll see it again in 3 months when it comes up on my listings" paint peeling, come on. Maybe if it was a 70k museum example in black that never saw rain and had perfect service records?

I love the pics of the large Polish car shows. They get right into it.

Hi Knees, this sounds like an interesting venture. I'd like to know if this forthcoming digital media company will be casting world wide new or focusing on our tiny little islands? That would help with directional ideas. Or perhaps, a way to present to the rest of the world the car culture of good ol' New Zealand? Maybe you could touch on the topic of the rapid rise of E30's and their worth's? Perhaps touch on how (the owners of said investment) dislike their cars appreciating in value. This could be due to the hoarding mentality of BMW enthusiasts? And their the hamstringing of this activity? A topic i broach actively (being from North America and settling here many years ago) is the various cars we get here and why little old NZ has so many niche groupings of enthusiast cars. The History and sales of cars, how our roads are covered in Japanese imports. How it makes sense with our backroads (and State highways that resemble backroads to the average American) determine that a Subaru STi is actually faster to transit in than any high powered V8 car. On a slightly selfish note, i quite like the idea of the Passat W8 manual and would like to know more. Regards Ray

On TM via Favorites. They'll get emailed to you daily. Really worth it when you want to look for weird things. I also setup searches for BMW "style XX wheels" and "throwing stars" under all wheels. Its helps.

I saw that low km auto wagon W8 here last week. It was pretty cool Yeah i have manual cars, in specific brands and years all over the place. Goal is to find deals before they are gone. Many good deals are gone in a day.

Hi i've offered this before but i'll put in Off-Topic We spend about 600k a year shipping stuff from our Auckland, Christchurch and Timaru locations. Nationwide. We have great rates with companies. Besides sending the small stuff we send 23 tonne shipments. Organize hiabs, couriers. I personally ship alot of car parts from work. Anyone on the forum need a hand please email us. We ship our own stuff but since the rep has gotten around we are shipping for our clients too. [email protected] (myself) [email protected] (national logistics) Feel free to ask for quotes, we can explain how its cheaper packing yourself, taking to a depot yourself or if u need full service we can sort as well.

https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/lamborghini/listing/5348725164?utm_source=tmm-savedsearch&utm_medium=email&bof=xW5Wgf8F This guy is dreaming. That's what LP640's go for. 1 Million NZ. Good luck. Also those KM's are high. That car goes for 250k USD in this sad market. No one is getting into a bidding war (above market) for a non LP high km example. The yellow one thats' been listed for years is 400k and hasn't moved. I'm looking forward to watching the price get lower and lower.

I can understand the "number is below call if you're interested" point. Trademe makes it so hard to make contact and inspect sometimes

That's a great one!

Hi guys. As someone who buys and sells alot of stuff on TM. I have multiple saved searches. 35 or so emails a day. What is some of the best search combos you've saved to find unicorns? Besides most BMW key words and nomenclature, The one that brings the most unicorns is My mates have also saved searches in "other" in the brand models. As guys misslist cars or cant find their exact models. This helps me find deals other people have skipped over. -Ray

https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/5344489391?utm_source=tmm-savedsearch&utm_medium=email&bof=8QgjtlEM Man i love a 7 series. Though a manual swapped SWB 740i seems to be my unicorn.

Absolutely not! haha Its got some weird parts i need and I'm confident i could park the rest out and get my 4k back.

This isnt a BMW, but a local car i viewed and he's currently pissing me off. This car in good nick goes uncompiled goes for 8k. A stock nice one goes for 13-16k This one has a wof but it needs paint (redone and peeling) and the interior was dyed poorly. Its got terrible wheels and the top isnt closing properly. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/ford/mustang/listing/5329340267?archive=1 Its worth 4-5k. I need it for some parts, its too far gone to restore. Old fella, absolutely dreaming. He's also got 2 Audi's my mate is looking at scooping as well for parts.

Thats pretty cool but not 60k cool. I'd throw fake barn dust on it, then make a video pulling it out of a shed. Also listing under engines so they dont have to pay for a real listing.

You know the sales reps were taking bets on if they could move it on consignment. Or Perhaps they have a flat listing fee? Thats some easy money. The guys are defiantly laughing after the drove away from the photoshoot.

I dont think ive seen one in real life? It looks like a great 12 car for some collector.

I'd say that a very fair price. He's also done the maintenance so hopefully a well sorted car.

Yeah i want to see that one. There is a finnish(?) guy i follow on Instagram who builds them all the time with V8 swaps. He V10 swapped a TVR but sadly binned it shortly after

One of my regrets was not buying one new. Three cheers to the guys who purchased new, and drove for free for 10 years. Heck, seeming to continuing to do so. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/5329879033?utm_source=tmm-savedsearch&utm_medium=email&bof=8Har5zGj Very nice

Honestly ive never seen on i liked ever. Are they only worth something being a E30 (in general?) https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/5324754455?utm_source=tmm-savedsearch&utm_medium=email&bof=sPme9DgS
