bravo 35 Report post Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) I've gotten mine online, but recently found it at both a magazine store not far from the Square in Chch when I was there a few months back, and from Magazine City in Westfield mall Westcity (Henderson). So I'm sure there are plenty of other specialist magazine stores around. Both of them had Performance BMW also. Edited August 15, 2008 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 178 Report post Posted August 15, 2008 I buy my copies of Total BMW, BMW Car and (sometimes) Performance BMW from Borders. Also, some of the smaller Paper Plus stores carry issues of TBMW... Whitcoulls only carry Woman's Day which is not relevant to my interests. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
my_e36 43 Report post Posted August 15, 2008 I've never seen Total BMW for sale anywhere. Do you get them from Whitcoulls etc.? Borders, Megazinno, MegaMags have them or be able to special order the upcoming issue. Whitcoulls usually only have the local and Oz car mags. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tire 10 Report post Posted August 16, 2008 (edited) Whitcoulls at the Welly airport has it Thanks for the heads up, I wasn;t planning on getting it anymore after the last one I got. 25yrs of E30 must be a good thing Edited August 16, 2008 by tastic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 Purchased this last week from the magazine shop at Sylvia park, was $22 and IMO overpriced for its content. Some interesting E30 facts none the less and a guide on how to fix the 5 series shimmy. Also noticed the 2.7 build guide is the same as someone posted on E30Zone. Performance BMW seems like a better publication and is cheaper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tire 10 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 was $22 :0 usually they are like $9.80! Yowch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr E34 11 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 It is too dear for the content but subs work out approx $10 less than the price you paid.(next issue has more E30 2.7 build) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antony 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 Anyone know where to get it in Dunedin? I always look out for it, but haven't found it yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 Usually a little over the $10 mark as others have said. I have the issue from a couple of years back last time they did a 2.7 build article. Would be interested to read any differences. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martyyn 2 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 I just found the July issue in my local place and it was only a tenner. But Ive only spent on hour reading this one so far and Im almost done, its so thin They usually have the 'airfreighted' issues too, but you have to be fast to get them and they are about $18. Obviously the airports charge a decent whack on top because its not like you can get it from anywhere else is it ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 true, Sorry it was air-freighted so it’s the current (sep) issue, I called and most bookshops have it for around $13.00 but it’s a month behind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've found it in Borders, but for about $17! Ow! While I'm at it, I always have a look around Trademe and second hand bookshops for old copies of BMW Car, Performance BMW and Total BMW, have never found any... anybody seen any anywhere?

mr E34 11 Report post Posted September 1, 2008 For the cost of a night out you may as well subscribe for 12 mths, 57 pounds for this part of the world. If you like BMW's why piss around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
