By the look of it, I could tell that there was something mean under the hood. Quite unlike all the E90’s you see with stickers, DTM’s, and M badges. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was a member’s car. Beautiful car, can;t tell if the car is built compactly or parking space is very generous. Parking space in AKL is tight as... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wish is was tighter, to discourage (or even better, punish) people who drive ridiculous 5m long, 2m wide SUV's around like they own the roads (and carparks).

Mr White's Garage 28 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 Spotted this Volvo bus fitted with E39 facelift headlights. A rather expensive choice of headlights for a bus. 1 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1669 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 Id say they are quite reasonably priced compared to your average modern LED light. $300ish for second hand set last time i checked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Allanw 1072 Report post Posted June 26, 2023 I did a group buy for E39 Halogens, brand new from Hella NZ in 2012 - NZ$640 inc gst. I ended up selling my set on, a while later and importing a brand new boxed set of genuine Xenons, with a "retrofit" self levelling kit for about NZ$900 after shipping and GST etc. To be honest though - the halogens are TERRIBLE on an E39, I'd hate to have to use them while driving a bus!

Karter16 413 Report post Posted August 21, 2023 A lovely silver E39 on Glenfield Road this evening. Came up behind it and was admiring it as I drove past. The driver then caught up with me to complement my car. Such beautiful cars! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted September 15, 2023 Spotted Jooles old V12850 in Tuakau yesterday, was with a customer so didnt catch up the new owner... did watch him do a 15 point turn to get out of the car park though so I can only assume they haven't installed a reversing camera. Also spotted a few e90 series 335i's BMW's in Tuakau.. so that means they have reached the lowest depreciation point and we should be looking to buy some tidy ones soonish before there are bugger all left?

Not really in a position to talk too much since my 135i isn't exactly unmolested either, but the majority are now driven by yobos with heinous burble tunes and never see any maintenance but a bunch of aliexpress bolt ons. Also quite a few being crashed. Not many tidy ones around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also quite a few being crashed. Not many tidy ones around. Accurate around here. They are like the BA Falcon for people slightly more sophisticated. There is a guy with a white one around the corner who has just done a "burble tune" and he floors it up our road a few time a week, my wife said she was going to leave me for him because she loves seeing a car spin one wheel up a incline in the wet and wishes I would be more like him. I told her I can only dream of being in a position to finance a 20 year old BMW and remap it and I am working really hard to achieve that goal before 2025. Watch this space, its public now so no excuses. Edited September 17, 2023 by Apex 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
