Eagle 1659 Report post Posted October 7, 2016 For that sort of coin id expect that all fluids have been replaced, new tyres and the cambelt done at the least. By the sounds of the ad all he's done is get it legal and put on a large markup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matth5 471 Report post Posted October 7, 2016 "This car has only come available due to deceased estate. " Person selling it probably has no idea what it's worth and is just trying to get rid of it while making as much as possible. Make an offer if you want it...

MrDevine 14 Report post Posted October 7, 2016 Trivia - if you use the inflation calculator on the reserve bank site - in 2016 dollars that vert would have set you back $184k. You can buy an M3 today for $169k... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote 2. All the tyres on a vehicle class MA, MB, MD1 or NA that was first registered or re-registered in New Zealand from 1 October 2002, other than vehicles that are incapable of exceeding 30km/h or are 30 years old or more, are not of the same carcass type (ie mixed steel ply, fabric radial ply, bias/cross ply, run-flat). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
