    Pretty cool and a bit rare in NZ I imagine, though thats a 2.0 engine, the "3" comes in as its tuned from the base 120d, not actually the engine size.

    Yeah not many around. Wasn’t 100% sure about the engine size so thanks for that!


  2. Hi guys,

    has anyone here imported a BMW from Japan?

    Having a look at auctions at the moment, prices are obviously attractive as is but once you factor in freight, on roads, compliance etc etc, do you still end up better off? Good/bad experiences? Risk/reward ratio?

    Seems like a fun idea on paper but I feel as though everyone would be doing it if it straight forward.

    any feedback from anyone who’s gone through this process would be appreciated!

    cheers


  3. Hi guys,

    Looking at putting my 2009 335i 6 speed manual on trademe in the coming weeks but thought I would list it here first to see if any members/enthusiasts are interested. 


    I have owned this for just over a year now and have bought another vehicle. Was used as my daily driver for the better part of my ownership. It’s travelled 121,000ks and the water pump has not yet been replaced. Mechanically it is standard apart from an upgraded charge pipe. I was tempted to tune it but wasn’t too fazed as it’s a fun car to drive as is. Has been serviced frequently to keep up with the mechanical warranty and it’s just got a WOF last week. 

    Wheels wont be everybody’s taste but I like them. They’re 19x8.5 vertini magic wheels, tyres with good tread all round. It has a boot lip and a roof spoiler to give it a bit more shape and it has LED angel eye headlights too.

    I will be including the standard Motorsport suspension and I’m happy swap the wheels with some style 193’s if you prefer the OEM look.

    Wanting $26,000 ONO.

    Thanks

    That's firmly 130i territory, I can't see a 170k 123d fetching that even if it's mint.

    Now, in fairness I did just look at TM and see most are in or above your quoted range, damn, there's even someone trying to hawk one for $20k which is idiotic.

    I simply can't see how one could be worth more than $5k, it's a 14 year old car but the used car market is insane at the moment so I suppose if you're patient then aim high and see how you go.

    Regardless of my ramblings, GLWS OP.

    I do agree $20k is very far fetched. I should add those that are up for sale, the prices are all over the place hence my reason for the post


  5. Hi all,

    My mrs is looking at parting with her 123d in the near future but we’re not too sure what to ask as there’s not too many for sale to base off.

    it’s a 2008 Motorsport and has done 170,000ks. Body is straight, paint is perfect, interior is immaculate and good service history.

    Any indication on pricing would be much appreciated! Thanks
