SmithyInWelly 212 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) $5k - possibly a bit less for a Bsporter! Runs well, everything works - including an aftermarket bluetooth head unit (original nav/audio/comp unit comes with). Body is pretty straight tho front windscreen rubber is perished (tho no leaks) and the front spoiler is cracked on each side under the fog lights (which work). I bought the car around 6 mths ago from a fellow Bimmersporter here in Wellington as I needed an auto commuter following surgery. It's now done around 148km and hasn't missed a beat in the time I"ve owned it. It's ex Japan so is pretty well optioned, vin is: GX91315 so check it out. No rush to sell but keen to get something a bit more fun to drive now I've recovered and can probably change gears again. If I've still got it in July will give it a service, get a new warrant and chuck another years rego on there - which of course will be reflected in the price, and chuck it on Tard Me. In the meantime, someone on here can get a relative bargain, just as I did. It's not perfect but looks good and goes well. No service history but clean engine bay and cooling system looks to have been refurb'd by a radiator place in Chch; and Greg gave it an oil/filter service just before I got it.

SmithyInWelly 212 Report post Posted March 27, 2016 Interior didn't come up too well because of the bright Wellyfornia sunshine (lol), it's pretty clean - have original audio/comp/nav unit also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allanw 1071 Report post Posted April 2, 2016 Damn... that's not much money! I was hoping our might be worth a little more than that It's not motorsport (though it has the suspension) but it manual... Maybe I'll keep it longer... until it dies... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmithyInWelly 212 Report post Posted April 3, 2016 Yeah, they're not worth much these days - mine is also ex Jap with no service history so whilst it presents well it wasn't one you could ask top dollar for. It was a fair price and the new buyer was pretty happy so that worked for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha - I've got far more fun things to spend my car allowance on, and I couldn't think of selling the E39 until I've made it's replacement fast enough for the school run! Could easily be 6 months, to a year (or 3...) ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No forced induction. yet anyway - probably not ever, but I can dream. Nah, R32 3.2 VR6 and 4x4. Still a LONG way to go.
