  1. So was having a casual browse on trademe, only 13 130i for sale, much lower than usual 20-30 I've observed over the last couple years. 2 manuals, including the worldy listed above. 

    Also had a look at 135i, they also exhibit similar pricing behaviour in regards to manuals and a significant price difference over an automatic.

    Cheapest auto is 14k, manual 22k. Similar spec, condition, maintenance and kms. Obviously not an indicator of sale price, though the manual has a deposit on it.

    Have we seen this one before? NZ new manual with a great spec (especially given it's NZ new). Xenons, alarm (!), headlight washers (!), PDC, Bluetooth (!), cruise control, PS4's, adjustable Konis, poly front bushes. Sounds well cared for.

    Starting at $8,500, I wonder what the reserve is?

    I was just looking at that and came to bimmersport to see if anyone had posted it yet lol

  3. Cheapest calipers I could find for a brake upgrade were $900, before pads/rotors etc. 

    Given they've replaced the grill, mirror caps, wheels, aerial, rear spoiler and done a BBK the dealer car has likely been maintained more than the average daily. 

    2009+ is also a pretty rare 130i here. 

    If it was a manual I'd happily buy it.

  5. I'm just doing some shopping around for insurance, mine renews next month.

    Do our cars have a factory immobilizer? I found an Australian car review that says they do, but if an insurance company requires proof of one that is not exactly rock solid. Is there a specific code in the BMW options in the vin that says anything? Or a better source. 


  6. Sounds like I need to be ordering some M3 LCAs. Probably due for a refresh anyway. Will add it to the parts pile in the garage 😅

    They were TRW parts right, I remember someone posted the part numbers a while back. Is it just LCAs or is there more needed to do the swap?

    Coolant light has come on a few times last week or so. Seems to be a fairly slow leak. What are the most common areas for a leak. Don't think it will be water pump as the car is only sitting at 64,000kms. Thanks in advance. I should add, I can't see any signs of a leak from the engine bay and no signs of a leak from underneath.

    Top it up and monitor it. Could just have been a bit low.
