Apex 693 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Is that cheap for a near ten year old Crapanese import that cant be registered in NZ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
camera doctor 25 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 On one hand the Govt goes on about recycling, waste etc, and then they do not allow this car with only 36K on the clock to be registered on our roads ........... Still , the importer should have known better, rules are clearly stated I guess. Does seem an aweful waste ..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Here is an awesome idea, take a classic 80's Six Series and install all the running gear from this. Winning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allan 295 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Could some one explain please This is a 2004 BMW 645 imported from Japan. This vehicle will only comply in NZ with a special interest exemption for which it will qualify. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Winning. ohhhh Could some one explain please This is a 2004 BMW 645 imported from Japan. This vehicle will only comply in NZ with a special interest exemption for which it will qualify. Wouldn't have thought it would be 'special' enough, sure id take one, but its not an M6. if they let this through then they should let anything through on that basis???

Michael. 2313 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Yeah I doubt you could pass that off as a special interest car... They aren't exactly rare in build numbers that model nor significant compared to other BMW models. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Autocar has stated that they will back up any claim, to any car being a collectable item for the special interest vehicle laws (In their opinion, all cars are collectable). It is a 2-door coupe. All it needs is either a production run under 20,000 a year, or to be a "high performance vehicle". http://www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/factshee...t-vehicles.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah it makes you wonder if hes hinting at chassis damage or something else more serious than the compliance issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
