Slightly off topic... but, does anyone know what websites the dealers in New Zealand use to source their cars in Japan?
Specifically the nice stuff, old and rare etc
E30 M3s, Integrales, nice Porsches etc

I think the owner of this car needs to sharpen his pencil somewhat in light of what they’re asking for the red car
https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1305444068.htm
$52,500, NZ New, 80,000km. It’s been on Trademe for almost one year.

I’ve had a Valentine 1 since 2005 and it’s been great, I left it in storage when I was in England and have recently started using it again since I’ve moved back to New Zealand.
It seems to now have an annoying habit of going off whenever a new Toyota Corolla comes towards me in the opposite direction. The alert sounds in different to when there’s police but it’s still super annoying. I’ve got no idea what causes it
I’m after some suggestions also on a new radar detector.

RIP, respect.

It’s just been re-listed on Trademe, so guessing, yes.

I’m going to chime in here in the hope someone can help me with my 5 series TV issue.
I have a NZ new 2009 E61 525i with a DVD/TV player.
The DVD player works fine but the TV is just static. Is that an analogue in my car vs digital issue?
Has anyone remedied this here easily?

Hi guys,
Please see the Trademe links for pictures, I've tried to upload a picture of the goods here, but I'm either capped, or there's something wrong with my internet as I can't upload a pic.

Z3 is a hotrod, a stand alone classic, and possibly the last mad creation BMW did that was actually good!
Z4 is more the Porsche Boxster, a great car you be happy to buy your wife.
Well put, the nothing about the Z4 rolls my wheels in the slightest.

Both have their advantages but if you are wanting the faster track car then E36
This. If you are comparing stock models.
There's no winning the debate once you go swapping engines, suspension, brakes etc.

I guess if you're at the end of your wick and have exhausted all other options then this is a good way of speeding up the process.
At least it serves a warning to others if nothing else.
Tarrbaby's first post is very thorough, almost as if he was a cop!

Cheers Steve,
Driver order was
0900-1030 (James)
1030-1200 (Ashkan)
1200-1330 (Me)
1330-1500 (Dan)
Was quite a laugh seeing you guys Mexican waving from your apartment.

Rust in the rear quarter where the battery lives is one of the more common places, as is the scuttle (remove the plastic window wiper surrounds), and also make sure the drain from the scuttle (rubber elephant trunk) isn't blocked. If it is, when it rains water can get to a point where it can spill into the heater blower and run into the inside of the car through the firewall. (I hope my mash of words makes sense)

As one of a handful of people who has owned one on here I think you can start approaching $40,000 for a nice standard 2.3L example in LHD and with circa 100,000kms.
As above, 215HP is worth more than a 195, as is dogleg 1st.
I spent a sh!t load on mine and didn't really recoup much of that when I sold, get in touch if you want any help.

Also those bbs wheels doesn't look right? Fakes maybe?
What makes them not look right?
From what I can make out in the photos they are LMs (Le Mans).
Without seeing the offset stamping etc you'd be pretty hard pressed from those photos to tell if they were real of not.

Good work Ken and nice purchase.
Good to see someone with the balls to step up and buy this rather than speculating behind a computer on how/when it will 'blow' up.

There's bits and pieces, but nothing I can find that lays it all out.
What I'm hoping to find is someone on here that can say this is what you need.....
- Sale Invoice
- Original Deregistration documents
- Bill of Lading
- Quarantine Documents
- Pre delivery inspection report (done by dealer/seller)
-
Looking good Ray, that interior is so hideous.
-
Just about Andy, I've read all the threads.
My only concern is what happens if it arrives here and I can't register it because I don't have the right documents.
If the seller in the U.K can't be arsed helping at that point as he has his money then I'm screwed.

Hi guys,
As per the title, I'm bringing a 2013 Audi RS4 wagon into New Zealand from the U.K
I've brought a car in from Japan in the past but understand the documents required are different (or at least have different names/terms etc)
Obviously my concern is out-laying a lot of money (for me anyhow) for a car that when it arrives we don't have the correct paperwork to get it on the road legally.
At that point the U.K seller has all his (my) money and can't be ars*d helping at his end.
I know there's been the odd thread over the years but I'm keen to hear from someone that has actually done it and what the names are of the documents that are needed.
Obviously the seller in the U.K needs to fill out some paperwork at their end.
Feel free to PM me if it's easier.
Cheers.

Mint E30 M3 Fit for a Museum
in TradeMe discussions
Posted · Report reply
He owns Toyshop cars in Auckland.
My kids are at the same school as his.
He’s always driving something nice.
I think he’ll be lucky to move that E30 for $120,000, let alone the $199,990 it was on for for nearly 6 months.
