The PCDxxx cars are the pick up/drop off cars for a long term storage facility.

What does that mean exactly? Sounds like where clones are made.

Saw John Key in one a while back nonetheless

That is a special car - it is Gerry Hodges's (BMW car club president) old car, and until 18 months ago lived down the road down from me in Hamilton.

Aesthetically similar to mine, - a hell red individual with red /black seats (mine are just black).

Six speed manual - one of 57 manuals in right hand with the M60 4.0 engine. One of only 2 M60 manuals in NZ.

Sits on 18" BBS LM rims that Gerry put on the car.

Was it looking good? The previous owner had it for 3 years and put like 700 kms on the clock.

Hi m,

This is the car your dad brought home for the weekend when you were a kid (in the mid to late 90's).

Great answer man! :) yep, the food is always good at Erotica....

Yeah, your dad told me about the photo he took of the car in the 90's.

The interesting thing about this car is that it is a 95' build, came here in 96.' BMW NZ used it for awhile, and didn't get officially sold till 99.' Hence, alot of people thought it was a 4.4 M62 840ci Sports.

Rumour has it that the first owner put a huge rear spoiler on top of the boot and had the rims painted gold!

When Gerry bought the car he had all of that stuff removed....
