    Quick rant thread.

    My insurer (who to be fair is otherwise excellent) told me they wouldn’t give their lifetime guarantee on the repairs if BMW did it as they weren’t an approved repairer. Otherwise, I was free to use them. I said I’ll take the punt.

    Yes, couldn’t have written “don’t buy this”more clearly.
  3. Palazzo
    That’s pretty good, shipping was only €70 from memory.

    We never have any problems with our local Aramex courier (touch wood), had a minor Fedex problem last week (Tried to deliver) that extended it out by a week with no updates. Ordered from Amazon Au yesterday, package delivered this morning in less than 24 hours. Take a bow DHL.

    Hard to believe given the value that it was written off. Never seen a red interior before and that’s some quality work to locate the aftermarket mic for Bluetooth. Surely that will be back on the road?

    Waze works well on our mostly central-upper North Island trips. Freaked the family out the first time it reported police ahead and they were there.
  7. Palazzo
    Yeah, I sent an overnight package to Wellington that arrived after 6 days. Spareto does use DHL and they have been pretty accurate in the past, including Sunday deliveries.
  8. Palazzo
    Spareto says €350 delivered. Says it will be here in 4 days and they are normally pretty accurate. Although factor in Nz incompetence at this time of year.

    And for ruining the market perception of diesel forever.

    Pretty sure they’ve dropped the price substantially, I think it was $8.5-9.5k.

    Comprehension skills were clearly lacking for me earlier.

    Better than what I’d come up with.

  19. Palazzo
    $3,060. That seems like a lot for some twisted sport seats and an unknown condition motor.
  20. Palazzo
    Nice job. Well worth it at that money.
  21. Palazzo
    Oh to go back a bit further (2007-8?) when I was being offered M3s out of Japan for $12-15k, and decided they weren’t worth it.
  22. Palazzo
    Problem is the car is in Wellington and I’m in Auckland. So to cover all bases, I would need to buy type an and b Motometer and a set of VDO gears?
  23. Palazzo
    Great. Dad has just told me that the local mechanic has replaced the cluster 2-3 times because the odo gears stopped working, I’ve just told him today to replace the gears. So we could have anything despite it saying Motometer on the front?
  24. Palazzo
    And maybe I should add, how do I tell A or B without the cluster out? Impossible?
  25. Palazzo
    Best place to get these? Garagistic seems like the go? Anywhere local and reasonable?
