  1. None of the above! Green & Blacks with Ginger is where it's at
  2. Yea, they need a bit of a revamp job, but really suit the car I reckon. Still has an unused spare!
  3. When I finish uni! Best OE plan ever! Either that or a very adventurous way to die, haha.
  4. Dull, pitted, and stained by the pohutukawas you see littering my driveway! Should really have taken a 'before' shot.
  5. I've had my old girl for years now, and hadn't even polished her once! So thought I'd be kind and give her the three-step Mother's programme. Borrowed a giant Bohler three-headed polisher to do the job. I'm a terrible photographer, but here's how she's looking now, holding up nicely for almost 20 years old and 200,000km. Have also replaced the Jeff Gray plate surrounds with Shelly's ones, and was even lucky enough to come by a few Shelly's rear transfers, so have popped one below the left rear tail-light, as per custom! Next on the to-do list, new roundels. Will
  6. I imagine it's purely a money thing. Poor girl just wants a slice of the Eskimo Pie.
  7. Ryan, have you deliberately picked out the most offensively awful house to photograph it in front of, just to affront me? Haha.
  8. I've seen a few cars with the centre vents removed to make way for extra gauges, does this mean the air con/heating is rendered ineffective? There's many E30s with extra gauges mounted above the ashtray, which seems to be a better place, perhaps consider that if you want it to be a comfortable every day car! Otherwise looking good...
  9. Kerre Woodham's Autobiography. Car related? It makes me want to throw myself in front of one! (I get a 'joke' biography every year from my brother. Judy Bailey, Princess Diana and Louise Nicholas have all featured.)
  10. Love how there's always someone who puts cotton wool around a car!
  11. Saw this Cabrio in Lowry Bay today- looks great! (Even without your wheels Laurence)
  12. Plates quoted me $799 to have an expired black plate on our 1928 Austin Seven turned into a personalised plate. Ridiculous, given they don't even need to physically do anything! Maybe I'll order some illegal German Plates for it, and do a gas runner. It being such a fast and inconspicuous vehicle, and all. Really welcoming the CC investigation, hopefully it's not a cop-out.
  13. ThreeOneEight

    New Z4

    It's getting too big- I keep saying, BMW already has plenty of spacious cabriolets- keep one lithe and sporty.
  14. Tech 2 just doesn't look 1980s enough for me. I vote Tech 1 for, but have a stock in my car and don't plan to replace it. It's one of the nicer feeling plastic wheels out there, and suits the whole black bumper base spec look that I've always admired on an E30.
  15. Looks very tidy- I live near the American Ambassador, and he's currently slumming it in a Ford Crown Victoria (What US cops use!)- he must be feeling a bit shortchanged if he had a 7 for a while!
  16. TWO Audi wagons! The sheer profligacy of Aucklanders!
  17. Someone in Wellington has 'NAFPL8'- not sure if it's Naff of Not Another F...cking!
  18. The dealer fit items that go over the carpet, made of the furry hard wearing stuff that is annoyingly hard to vacuum. In light grey only, please- not the most common colour, sadly. I have the front ones, if anyone has a full set I'd probably buy it, but only really need the rear ones. Also after a new set of headlamp covers- the perspex ones that screw on. Old ones are cracked, and I'd rather the car looked like Deidre Barlow than have to replace a headlamp! Cheers guys Will
  19. Wilkommen. That's a nice E34- release it from the confines of your driveway for some sexier photos sometime! (We all love to show off here, and nothing photographs quite so well as a shiny black car!)
  20. Yea, wish they would release Harry Enfield & Chums on DVD! I have every season of the Fast Show, though
  21. You and your anti Hutt Valley mentality! Is the trip really that arduous?
  22. Some of them probably deserve a cigarette, after the things they often put up with...
  23. It's at Southwards- and is a 1955 model, a beautifully restored car... likely worth over $1m
