Appreciate the links!! My only issue with that sort of ties into the above with if something goes wrong there’s no CGA protection with a private seller I believe? Please correct me if I’m wrong!
The car is still under factory warranty.
Get a PPI done, ask if the warranty can be extended (I think that’s possible?), negotiate on the price.
After that, how far wrong can you go?
It’s even the same colour I think? -
Slightly older, but Nz new and still under factory warranty for less money.

and similar (alright, a bit smaller), newer and Nz new.

If the dealer you’re dealing with is that sh*t at this point, imagine how good the experience will be when something goes wrong.
Run away.

I changed my RFTs for non on my X5. It already had a spare. The ride is significantly better (to be fair I also changed from 21”to 20”), handling is no different, don’t think I would change back. But if you get a flat on a non RFT, it will destroy the tyre in less than 1km, on an X5 at least.

No, they were E53s. I looked at the Park and Sell one and another in West Auckland that was $9995 at a dealer.

I don’t remember one this tidy looking. Thought about one for a while and read the maintenance log from (Termipete?) Wellington and thought “yeah, nah.” $14.5k seems like a lot.

12.1L/100 on average on the open road though... That is not good for a low power NA V8.I thought that one was black? Sat there for over a year at $8-9k?

Tempting as spares, even the right colour…

Have a look at Spareto next time, $170 delivered for a Bosch sensor.

Try Costco, they stock Bridgestone.

Unless I’m wrong they’re on Rock Auto for $2.50-3.00 or thereabouts.

There was an ‘05 Nz new 330i on fb last week with 215km and a warranty until ‘25. Now sold, they’re out there.

Remember Crunchy from here? He built a couple of BMW turbos at least.

There’s a diesel zf box on FB now for $2300.

I know, clear change.
54.6% of 5.7% of the voters, or 3.11% of the total. -

I saw that for sale. Hopefully a simple fix. I vaguely remember an issue like this that Ray (HellBm) fixed very easily. Maybe worth asking?

It was an insurance write off though wasn’t it? So rego would have been cancelled and need to be recomplied?

It’s not that bad, mine went down in value about 11% and up in premium about 14-15% from memory. My in laws went up 39% with zero claims.
Is This Where The E30 Market Is Now..?

For $35k, I’d want my silver car to be silver, the gear knob to be put on properly and the model badge on the right side. For starters.
