Friends daughter had her Mitsi Mirage fuel line (rubber hose) cut. Can’t remember the exact number, but about $700 for a 30cm piece of hose. Was pointed out that they’d bought 3 new cars from them and the local Mitsi wrecker had one for $75. They fitted it for free and apologised.

Didn’t someone on here buy one for their son for like $4-5k? From Waiheke? -
Friends got tyres direct from importer last year. A set of 4 was about 20% more than 1 from a (cheap) retailer. So somewhere between the importers margin and the retailers margin is a healthy number.

In Auckland, weaving through traffic, speeding, up someone’s arse, generally driving like a c@&t, “Oh, that’ll be a 320i then.” I always presume they’re rushing to the mechanic.

Sure is. I went to the Wellington launch of these. I remember the presenter saying “and representing outstanding value, the 740il at $214,000.” or $224k. Had just paid $131k for a 3 bed, 2 bath townhouse in Hataitai. That car looks lovely.

Have you checked Costco? They can order in all sorts.

Gazelys. Charge $92 for a Fiat oil filter (only supplier in the country for this particular one). Spareto, $30 for 3 plus shipping. Do Meyle, Mann, Filtron and ATE fall into the “cheap parts” basket?

I scored the same bike rack for $47 off FB. “Impossible to replace the missing key…..”

I’ve done that. Got the wrong brake pads for the wife’s Mazda, got the mechanic to source some locally on same day courier. it was still cheaper overall as I’d bought suspension arms and filters from Spareto.

When I showed the mechanic I use the price difference for a diff bush from Stocks at $760 versus online at $255 delivered, he said “go for it”. Same with brake sensors, $92 + GST at ACBMW for one or $77 delivered for both. There are times local parts are competitive though and we do it case by case.
