kiwi535 538 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 ^ Was just about to say that. Clearly something properly wrong with it huh?!do you know enough about 8 series or this car to sabotage this guys sale?I would say by the description of its recent care that it would be a good car(or at least well maintained)For a 1990 car and that mileage it looks in very good condition! I have absolutely no affiliation with this seller,I really think that comment is complety unwarranted Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssbmw 217 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 I know this car. I recall seeing this for sale at Turners at some point over the last 5 years and also at some point resurfaced at a 2nd hand Euro dealership next to BM Workshop in Grey Lynn. At Turners the highest offer was $11k and at the dealership in Grey Lynn it was for sale for $15k. I drove it. It is not the best looking example. The interior was appalling; the drivers seat had a hole in it and ithe leather was parched and worn out. Unusual for the E31 as I understood the leather utilised was of a high quality. Paint was a little dull and required some hard work to rectify. For what it is worth, I remember the car going pretty well. I remember heading onto the motor-way and being very impressed with the way the car accelerated. Rapid and smooth! The mileage was around 200 kms so this 8 hasn't been driven much since. Could be a expensive project. On the flip-side, it may have had alot of money thrown at it mechanically and could be a good, cheap 8. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 178 Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Just a joke Paul... you know... one of those stereotypes we all have about various BMW models. 8 series are an electrical nightmare E36 interiors were made by limbless morons The E30 is god's chariot... etc etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
