    Clearly shows how much the 3 Series (like most cars) has grown in size over the years.

    Cool colours though!

    @E30 325i Rag-Top Too right Jon!  I think they’re the same colour, my Kiwi friend works for BMW in Munich and the new one is his latest work lease car, the E30 is his mates’ car recently repainted.  I think but may be wrong, Malachite Green.

    That gets you a brand new Maserati!

    Or get a brand new Alfa Giulia Veloce and save 60 grand.  

    Not station wagons I guess...

    The BMW online store has 340ix Tourings at about $140k.  Maybe that’s current stock only?  For interest started the Configurator and the starting price before any options for one is $152835 as you say, hmm!

    Genuine tech 1 kitted 323 manual sedan for 15k ono. Seems like a steal for what they're going for nowadays. Looks alright too.

    Looks great eh @Simca? When I was at intermediate and early high school my friend’s mother had one the same in Bronzit Beige, with check cloth I think.  May have had Momo alloys.  It was FLAAAAAASH as

    @E28E30 Oh nice thats very low km for a Mark 5, I drove my mate's stage 1 Mark 5 GTI a few months ago and it felt very solid and responsive given its age. Euro plates will look good on the E30!  

    They’re great cars :) but all have usual issues, eg central locking packs up door by door, AC compressor fails, rattley flywheels, but they also are quick enough, spacious and economical if you want them to be.  Have had about 46 cars, settling for the Golf for now is a happy place

    @E28E30 Wow! That looks absolutely superb, your paint looks immaculate for 31 years old, especially being red. Very, very nice job!

    Also are they Monza Shadows on the Golf? The GTI looks really good especially with the euro plates. 

    @Kees you’re kind haha.  Red is a b#*ch right? It looks pretty good, up close it has the usual signs of a life lived, but is pretty nice.

    The Golf is an early NZ new Mark 5, and I think they are just Monza (charcoal grey inside spokes) and the Monza Shadows had black inside spoke holes and were for the Mark 6 (just Googled it since you asked…) they’re the 18” factory option style and designed to be curbed 😕 .  I like that it is dark blue, bought it 3.25 years ago with 68k on clock, now 113k.  PO had stage 1 chipped it and for a 16 year old car it is torquey, comfortable and quick enough for the daily duties.  The Euro plates were on it.

    Am getting Euro plates for the E30 shortly too :)
