I'll take an F3x 330d/335i for that kind of cash...

GLWS - i find this very tempting! pedant in me also likes that it's on its original plates

not sure if this engine is more or less correct than the last one. but the car it's in is in better shape

none of the LCI's have a V8 in them for <10k though agree F11 528i would be a big step up.

very nice, imo needs that Japanese front plate plinth removed though

NZ new V8? (valve stem seals may need doing?) Price looks reasonable though.Well specced - looks like probably a display car given registered Mar 2006, manufacture Aug 2004... WOF history looks very clean with only one fail in 14 years. http://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/2830748086

Nice LMB over saddle brown e82

Seems extraordinary that otherwise well specced JDM 130i's don't come with it, although I guess my E91 didn't have it either.

throwing stars + techno violet = 90's classic! 😍

would tend to steer clear of that dealer...quality of their stock is often poor, cheap =/ good value

Edition 30 are nicely specced (no sport seats in the F30 though, unlike the F20) and the ZF 8 speed / diesel combination is a winner.

@leichtbau 240k km on my dad's 2010 E91 320d says yes. regular oil changes FTW.

Cleaned and polished with Autoglym (cue torrential rain for next 24h 😤 - some good beading going on though) Very happy with my digital speedo.

Could get a post-2010 one with the N55 and save yourself the aggravation (unless you're planning to tune it)? There's a nice 2011 Le Mans blue one http://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/2699846628?bof=j5OwhhpD, otherwise if you do want the N54 I quite like this Aventurine Green Individual colour (though would have it back on OEM rims) http://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/2810816765?bof=bCHtbeoT

Come and take it away. About 3L worth.
