Greg111 13 Report post Posted November 18, 2007 Here are some pictures of the drive we went on yesterday. Was an awsome sunny day, and a fun drive with some great roads. Just to calrify, Westy is suprisingly driving a 3 series, not a 5er. Joel is still over at Paul's getting on the piss. Was really good to finally meet all of you Hey all, wish i knew about this meet, would have been fun to join, oh well win some lose some i guess, my M3 proberly wouldnt go with the black and white theme you had going, being bright yellow etc! Haha i'll keep my eye out for up and coming cruises. Peace. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldskool 4 Report post Posted November 18, 2007 Hey Guys, Saw the m3 as I was finishing off my last open home, popped out later and saw the collection on the lawn in Havelock looked most impressive, let me know the next time you are planning to go for a run, I need an excuse to get the m5 out of the shed. Sounds like a good time was had by all, look forward to tagging along soon. Cheers Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell of a lot more enjoyable in todays toys though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simon Hey Simon, Fancy a road trip ova the xmas period, pretty much all of my toys bar 4 are in Akl, sitting in storage or part way through resto's. Havent had 6er's on trade me, but looking forward to putting finished article in rides section, the one thats been completed at the mo is an auto with m6 front & rear spoilers and wheeel arch lips, paint is fiiiiiiiiinnnnnnaaaaaallllllllyyyy nearly finished and then it will be off to have all new shocks & springs etc and we will look at what wheels will set it off. Between my first Beemer (Blue 735 that I have had repainted 17 put on and a bbs front spoiler) and the 6 when its finished I will be a happy boy, thinking I will sell the 740 & 530, nice but a bit boring really. I think I might have to go to BHA ( BMW Hoarders Anonymous ) to deal with my sickness !!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????? Think I would rather neva get well thou.

Guest 540Si Report post Posted November 21, 2007 Sounds fantastic - during the Xmas break would be great as I'm going to be around pretty much the whole time. The 6 sounds great and is the 735 a manual? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 6 sounds great and is the 735 a manual? Unfortunately not, but does go very hard for some unexplained reason, Ernst thinks it has had the fuel metering tutued with, really love it though. The 745 ( south african model with 3.5 twin cam engine )will be getting a 5spd conversion when funds allow, I have the m5 box and just getting the last bits and pieces together to do conversion. Want to import a turbo 745 from euro or US as well, so that way I have one of each, just coz. I'll let you know if I get the cars sorted b4 xmas, planning to get a few people togetha and go get them in one go, could be a good excuse for a convoy eh. Would love to see the Purple Petrol Eater, that is one beautiful machine, I would love to add one to my collection too. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
