captain obvious

Not until given it a wash, its absolutely filthy. Its my daily but I'm already working on a massive list of stuff to do... To do... Radio update (JDM YO!) Adjust rear passenger door alignment Paint in a couple of stone chips Wash, cut & polish wax or ceramic coat. Headlight restoration steering wheel trim replacement Replace a couple of interior plastic panels that are scratched Change the fluids other than the engine oil (done on purchase) ...so diff, coolant & check brake fluid for contamination Check brake pads so I know what they've got left in em.

Thanks for the advice everyone, I bought a 330i in Lemans Blue at the weekend. It arrives Tuesday if the registration etc gets done in swift order

I wouldnt convert a 330i, I'd just pep the gearbox up a bit. The frustrating thing is there are a couple of blue 130i manuals that came up and didnt sell about 6 weeks ago (owners said moving overseas) and I have no way to contact them. It was perfect spec. 9k, blue, msport, 90k km, manual What is the fb group name? I'm basically after something between mature and fun from time to time, I have a low km clean Evo 9 for weekend drives so this would be mostly commuting and running around.

Hi chaps, I'm currently after a daily runaround and I've kind of set my mind on a 330i auto having not been able to find a 130i manual that isn't rough as. It sucks because I've seen a couple of 130i manuals in blue come up on trademe and not sell before I was looking but they've not been relisted and I cant reach out to the owner ..anyway back to the 330i I've done a search on here and picked up bushings and diff seals are worth looking/listening for. There seems to be alot on the market that are around 9-11k for a reasonable spec (HID/MSport everything, heated seats, cruise). This one is top of my list at the moment and I'm off to see it at the weekend... https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-2214530871.htm?rsqid=859803b166f2489cbc98447ab9d95fff-011 I read you can give the transmission a tune to make it more drivable and less lazy, and I'll get under it to look for leaks from the diff/engine/gearbox...other than making sure everything works and nothing is clunking/rattling etc what else do I need to look for? The above has service history from Japan. Thanks in advance for any pointers.
