    E65

    Cheers. Have I got the other dimensions right (from the web)? 19x9, 19x10, ET24?

    Anyone know the centre bore size for E65 wheels? Cheers.
  3. Must be some sort of disability option. It's about $30k or more over priced for a nz new one (which would have leather not that awful cloth), let alone an import.
  4. They're all better than the E34 that rolls around here with ACS badges on one side of the boot and Alpina on the other. I thought that white E46 was cheap.

    I think I have a spare, if I do, it's yours. I'm away until next Sat though.
  6. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +1. Was quoted $3k for a cambelt on a v6 and $1500-2k on a 4. Every 3-4 years. Apparently they can break prior to time frame making change intervals even closer for piece of mind. Then there's the rest of it. Pity, because that v6 is one of the nicer sounding engines I've ever driven.
  7. Not well explained, but something to do with the positioning. Was years ago when it was explained to me.

  9. http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/10169971/Helicopter-rip-off-suspects-switch-cars I'm sure I've seen the car they've sold in Westmere, actually an E36 M3.
  10. http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/10169971/Helicopter-rip-off-suspects-switch-cars Photo is an E46, but I'm sure I've seen the car they sold in Westmere, an E36 M3.
  11. Getting wonderfully off topic, but the actual traffic plan is exit at Wellesley St turning left, then right past the University, right again down Waterloo Quadrant, down Alten Rd and across SH16 into Carlaw Park.
  12. Because they won't allow a right turn across a State Highway, which is what that part of the road is designated.
  13. Because one side doesn't talk to the other? All of the buildings along there have demo clauses in their leases, or at least they did, as I leased them. The plan was to run straight down and along Beach Rd taking out the "dangerous" corners on The Strand. Don't know what's happened since.

    Surprised it's not matte black.
  15. Try spraying crc/wd40 around the door lock/latch. You might get lucky. With the door too.
  16. My loss is someone else's gain. Interesting, considering he paid about $22,700 from memory.
  17. That's an American ad, think they could make that claim without being able to back it up or be sued?
  18. Low kms and manual. Probably cheap too. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-739846153.htm
  19. Good buy, I'm still waiting for the thanks for the heads up on this after you were looking at the import one.
  20. Having driven an S55 Kompressor, why would you bother with a manual? I love them, but there comes a point where power and torque overwhelm the need.
