Details: 1994 540iA SE - NZ New 220k Service @ 216km New intake manifold gaskets (all) and PCV valve New Crank angle sensor Mint grey leather (will get photos asap) Clear indicator update kit Factory towpack incl trans cooler Previous owner replaced radiator Lower pitman arms have been done at some point Center muffler delete - gives a more pronounced V8 burble LSD All standard 540 fruit (except cruise and tilt steering wheel) Pioneer ipod direct connect headunit 17" Schnitzer type 2 reps - these will have new rubber on the rear, fronts are @ about half tread Bits included in sale: Spare DME, all orig lights and standard 15" basketweaves The car is real tidy except for a small dent on the rear of the bootlid and thinning paint on the rear passenger door, and the odd stonechip up front.

twisted 45 Report post Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) Cheers guys. The absolute need that i had to sell this kind of disappeared last night, so now I'm in two minds about passing this on. I'm going to leave it advertised here, and on the intranet at work, but I think this is as active as I will get at this stage.

deeveus 81 Report post Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) If you were in the South Island I'd happily hand over 5k for that. If your keen to drive it down here I'll have the foldies waiting and fly you home at my cost. EDIT: If you were happy with that (IF) would you be prepared to have the coil issue fixed? Will fund the part if it wasn't over the hill in price ofcourse. Edited November 19, 2009 by Clinton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably the best step from here is to take the car down to mikes and get a proper diagnosis on the vibration/backfire and take it from there. I'll try and get in in the shop early next week.
