Etwenty1 45 Report post Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) I found this red 325i near waihi with a blown HG. Cheers for the heads up BS trademe section..... The PO was not sure what had caused the breakdown but the car looked like it had been looked after. Had new HG less than a year previous. Found one fire ring that looked crushed? either from install or overheat pressure, and the leak turned out to be the heater core o rings - coolant was boiling out under the carpet. After some fun with a blockage in the thermostat housing its nearly back on the road, just some rack end to fit this weekend thanks to pickapart and a handbrake adjustment. Has new TB, waterpump, a new $400 radiator, new light bar in the OBC, crackless dash, LSD, a Tech 2 wheel. I was intending to keep this one, it reminds me of the first e30 i had, a work car probably 20 years ago - nice exhaust note, the sport switch auto and a good straight body. Not sure about the 15" chromes, the fit good but i have some refurbed 15" weaves that i think will look better. Have been trying to assemble a set of recaros and matching carpet but the mint tan interior is fine for now. Now thinking about an e34 - what do you reckon this would sell for in the current depressed market....? have mowed the lawns.....

JayCee 26 Report post Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) I remember putting this on the tradme section! Man it is mint. Id say defs above 4k mark. Maybe 4.5 - 5k it is a beautiful car. Mint tan interior and crack free dash, Red that doesnt look blemished Id say with 15" weaves you could be looking at a pretty nice sum of cash!

nath 134 Report post Posted June 1, 2013 Looks great in red, but is it an NZ SE? SE's here got SE cloth (no vinyl on sides, E34 cloth), faux leather handbrake boot, shadowline etc. pre-edit: I see it isnt NZ new, SE must be different in UK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etwenty1 45 Report post Posted June 13, 2013 Car now has new WOF after 2 new tie rods, new wiper arms, new front pads. Wheels have been aligned and it drives great. Was a bonus to find the car has msport suspension. This will be for sale in a few weeks (after i get a 540 running) but open to expressions of interest.
