jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted May 29, 2015 Silver 1 series with black wheels and grilles and aftermarket quad exhaust. License plate GZZ740. Undertook me in a 40k zone at 50k+ in a bus lane to gain one car length in a queue of traffic. What a nob. Exactly the sort of dbag driving that makes people hate BMW drivers. Hope it wasn't a member. If it was, don't drive like a nob, it makes us all look bad. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted May 31, 2015 Parked in town today and i see at the lights half a block away a green 740i. He was heading my way and I was going to wave out when I realized that not only did his V8 sound way better than mine he was shifting gears manually.. Watched him take off from the next set of lights to make sure I was right. Yep. Manual.. I'm jealous. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael. 2313 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 Fatal crash with an E39 Touring on the news. Just goes to show how bad a typically safe older car copes with those glancing head long crashes involving well under 25% of the width of the car being impacted on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_ethrty-Andy_ 2136 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Saw a 525ix going past Princes Street today, didn't think they made 4WD versions back in the day... they did... but without the ghastly sticker underneath the light off the back of a toyota carib or something. I used to have one for a little bit, E34s do handle well anyways for a 25 year old car, but the front wheels pulling the car round did help, very confident. spare touring specific parts are unobtanium here though cool M badge doe Edited June 3, 2015 by _Ethrty-Andy_ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vtgts300kw 90 Report post Posted June 10, 2015 There's a red E30 M3 on what looks like Schnitzer Type 2 wheels that gets daily driven along the waterfront in Auckland. Awesome. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vtgts300kw 90 Report post Posted June 12, 2015 Saw a lowered, face lifted first-Gen X5 on the Harbour Bridge handling HILARIOUSLY ( dangerously ) poorly. The geometry was so screwed up the driver and passengers were getting thrown sideways in their seats as they went over the ( bumpy ) bridge. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Allanw 1072 Report post Posted June 12, 2015 Saw a lowered, face lifted first-Gen X5 on the Harbour Bridge handling HILARIOUSLY ( dangerously ) poorly. The geometry was so screwed up the driver and passengers were getting thrown sideways in their seats as they went over the ( bumpy ) bridge. I've not seen one in real life, but I like a low-ish X5 - I always wondered how they'd handle, and how low you could safely go..... I guess there is a right way, and a wrong way, and the Kiwi way is usually the wrong way! It was a tossup between building a low-ish V8 X5 2WD manual, and something VW Touran based... Touran won!
