Is that you Dad?

It has 700nm of torque, the auto will be a great match if you want instant performance. I doubt SMG of that time can even handle it.

I've had turbo and non turbo, they were both reliable, the turbo for 140kms. Strangely enough,with regular, basic servicing, they were fine. Two lsds on the turbo. I'd have another. The 3 litre is thirsty, used more gas than my turbo Falcon around town.

4) To get home.

Don't sell the sc, keep it for the 8.

Tanks empty, add $210 to purchase price. Cheap, cool car though.

Is it just me, or is it a different colour from the windscreen forward?

How many tyres and how much tread?

So which is it? I have no doubt that an X5 is capable to a point on road and that it would be ok on snowy roads, maybe gravel, but apparently they're now better than anything else at both?

Anyone know the correct oil grade for a 2006 118i? Cheers.

More practical than an 8 Series Jules........

I think the problem you're having is the same one I had trying to sell an AMG Merc for similar money. The cars sold for more at a dealers, $10k more, because they could get dealer finance. If you look through TJs thread about Euro Cars or something, there is a post about MVDI disputes decisions. Have a look at the finance figures people were using, $500 deposit on a $30k car was not uncommon. Personally I think you'd have to have rocks in your head to finance a large proportion of a cars price, but that's what people do, there are very few with cash to buy. Just wait though, you'll find one eventually, it looks like the nicest one I've seen for a while.

Maybe I should sell mine after all.

Yeah, zoom on iPad/iPhone is great. Nice car btw.

I'm going to say Queen St, Auckland for the photo.

What's that water, like a foot deep? I'd take an Outback through that, why can't an X5?

Or the XR versions. AU finished in 02, BA started, same as E65? Think you'll find the Falcon is more 7 size than 5.

You should, the essence of BMW IMO.

Take a punt? How about this one? http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-719021926.htm Hmmmn, $2k for a warrant? Tyres?

I remember Glenn once saying they were all expensive to repair. Last year when I was looking a sub 100km745i nz new was $15k ish. Run.

I'll take an uneducated guess,an air leak somewhere? Someone better informed will be along soon.

Sorry,you're down 35lb/ft.
