    It has to be fit for purpose, would you expect a car to break down after 3 days? No. Take it back.

    I just got off the phone with my father, were you eavesdropping? Actually it’s 50/50 National/Labour. nzta.govt.nz

    What would you get as an alternate jack for an X5? The standard one that I’ve used once is the same as a 3 series from what I can see and it just doesn’t instil confidence in lifting the X5, even empty. I have a space saver.

    Best video commentary. The whole network is f&&ked, NZTA came out the other day and said the reason the roads were so bad is they were making sure they got their monies worth out of what they spent on them 10 years ago. It’s beyond belief.
  5. We had a ‘93 (?) E32 730i V8, Singapore import. Ran it for 10 years and 120,000kms, nothing went wrong apart from wear and tear items , brakes, usual oil etc and a steering rack at about 160kms. Even that was cheaper than I thought it would be. However I know first hand a few horror stories too, maybe luck of the draw/an inspection as above.
  6. Some on E30 Owners on Facebook. A set. Don’t know if they’re cheap.
  7. Facebook. However they are in Ohio and it’s $2k USD.
  8. At least it doesn’t look like it’s rusted the roof, like the factory one. I always thought it must be nerve wracking making the first cut and wondering if you’d got it right….
  9. A sports exhaust on a 4 cyl diesel. Why would you amplify the sound of disappointment?
  10. https://spareto.com/t/vehicles/bmw/bmw-3-touring-e91-323-i/spark-glow-ignition/spark-plug check the model, but I think that’s the right one.
  11. Petrol https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/ford/mondeo/listing/3758294339 Diesel https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/ford/mondeo/listing/3752948445 Lots of space, drive good, enough grunt and pretty sure they had sorted any gearbox issues by then, which mainly seemed to be maintenance driven.

    Wow, you are an optimist. Really think they’re going to fix them? They are ridiculously bad, embarrassing for supposedly the main highway.

    Ask them for the unconditional date and call then. No reason they can't tell you. Or put in a back up.

    Contact the REINZ or council, from memory, a sold sticker is only allowed to stay up for 1 week.

    I’ll add. To the idiot with the black e92 335i in Grey Lynn, your bangs tune is sh*t and nobody cares.
  17. So do I, if I had the spare $, I'd have it as a mini me to the F15.

    Worthless c&$ts who walk around at 1 in the morning throwing concrete blocks through car windows.
  19. I thought it was good value as a mint little daily at $10-11k. Bang some weaves on (even 14”), I have mtech 1 spoilers and steering wheel in the garage, add a Bluetooth solution and it would have been cool.

  21. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/324211320100 If you can wait for delivery, that looks like a good option?
  22. There are two at Pickapart in Auckland, (I know you’re in Chch) not sure if they have what you’re after, or if you could guarantee they’d be any good?
