BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted May 20, 2016 Must be nice to be back in an e28 after selling the silver one. this one looks so tidy too! congratsyea but so stock compared to the last one What color Black is that? That is nice. No S38 plans Brent? hehe. diamond schwarz metallic , car has had a repaint though. no s38 as of yet , but I have driven a s38b36 e28 and my 3.65L m88 was way better , I think if I did would need to a be a built up s38b36 as they need more cam ,bore size and compression etc Gorgeous. Great plate too, re-do it as a europlate yes might do , or can you redo these old cars back into a black plate? I remember you asking me if had seen it,could look for it.Is that the origianl number plate ? was originally MT693 , https://carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=na535 but my dad knew someone in the postoffice and who found the NA535 plate as that's my dads initials plate came up from Johnsonville, Wellington , which interesting was the place of one of the old owners I tracked down years ago when I 1st started looking for this car. tried to buy it off the guy then , but was not for sale at that stage , gave him my details for when I=he wanted to sell it , but ended up in trade-n-exchange and sold before I found out about it , then a few years later poped up on trademe , I didn't really want another e28 at that stage , so let it go ,but my mate brought it instead and has had it for about 10years now but only really used it for a few years . brilliant. ISTR most of the NA plates were Wellington, yeah? Love the wheels, brilliant on the e28. What are they, Brent? They could be just the go for BarryN's e28. yea plate came from Johnsonville, Wellington. wheels I believe are early e38 750i type , I will most likely sell them at some stage when I decide what I want to replace them with That's a great story, Brent. Keep it for the kids! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk yea maybe ;S thinking of these as a option custom wheels with the metric centres built into BBS RS lips orginal wheels where the other type only found on the M535i 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
