MISS BM 712 Report post Posted June 26, 2014 Lush? Far from it, a buddie and i flew to Auckland to view it, Seller said i wouldn't be disappointed. But we walked away. The wheels have been pryed in there with all guards damaged, damage to the under body, speedo didnt work, headlining sagged, leaks in the rear windows, a couple of rust spots in standard areas. No cert. It won Best BMW at Automania (and there were some sick ass E46s, E30's etc etc) I don't think the guy would appreciate you slagging off his car ae? Seen it in person and thought it was sweet - E30's are what, like 100 years old now? What do you expect. Remind me to NEVER sell my car to BS member, if this is the attitude you guys have towards individual rides. Car sold anyway... So someone must of loved it enough to see past the old car gremlins. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congrats on it winning best BMW at Automania. Just basing my statement on personal experience with the car (and now previous owner), i guess peoples standards of 'mint' vary alot. Just not ideal When i spend $$$ on one way plane tickets and its not what its meant to be upon arrival. You can sell your car to anyone, including BS members, don't judge all members to be the same from my attitude towards this individual ride. A car can still be old and not have "gremlins". Moving on... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MISS BM 712 Report post Posted June 27, 2014 I certainly wouldn't purchase a ticket anywhere without more photos/more cars to look at/someone in the vicinity looking over it first. Can understand why you're pissed off, but no need to slag off someone else's ride on a public forum - and maybe planning for a thorough trip is a good base in future.

KwS 2373 Report post Posted June 27, 2014 didnt sound like "slagging off" to me, unless he is lying about the cars condition then it sounds rougher than one would expect for "mint" and completely justified in his comments. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MISS BM 712 Report post Posted June 27, 2014 didnt sound like "slagging off" to me, unless he is lying about the cars condition then it sounds rougher than one would expect for "mint" and completely justified in his comments. Saw it at the meet - along with many others, and was overall impressed with the condition of it - even under the hood. Different views on mint I guess. Apologies to all. Must be in the wrong as I'm female. My view of it (which was recently must I add) may have been a cleaned up look, or maybe I didnt look close enough. Maybe being in the same boat where people slag off my ride I know how the guy feels - dissapointed None the less, I'm in error as my opinion is clearly off. Guts for the plane ticket, sorry it cost ya. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3568 Report post Posted June 27, 2014 In the trademe photos it looks "mint" but makes u wonder why all the photos are "from a distance" and not all that clear. Certainly from a sellers point of view one wouldnt upload pictures that show the "faults" of the car. Like amber said, always good to get someome to check it out. If no friend in the area then just post up a thread on here and im sure a volunteer will pop up. We r a good family like that! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

handgrenade 189 Report post Posted June 27, 2014 I saw the car in person, thought it was in decent condition! the current owner is a nice guy .. doesnt seem like the sort who would falsely advertise the car .. looked under the hood and things were clean. the manual conversion was done by HellBM I think?? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2915 Report post Posted June 27, 2014 What people call a "mint" car varies from person to person, some would take into account the age of the car, others would expect it to mean completely spotless. Having seen Blair's car in the flesh, I know where on the scale his definition is. If a car has obvious faults, such as items not working, then to some it is not 'in mint condition', even though the body work may be un-marked. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
