TermiPeteNZ 1316 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 http://bimmersport.co.nz/forum/47-trademe-discussions/ Makes for sad reading - dude found 'the right car', gave it plenty of love and tidied it up - but the wife found it to be 'the wrong colour' - so it has to go Sh!t happens!

NUSTAD 243 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 Calling bullshit on the wife's dislike for colour. Just a colourful story. Otherwise look in the wife's handbag for the cajones. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I too thought the "wife hates colour" story lacked, well, something. Testicular fortitude, really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

allan 295 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 Had a little look at this and it appears to have been imported from Singapore ,Rego NZ 29 Aug 2000, assembled in Dec 94. Running the vin through a decoder the spec list on this is not as long as I would have thought being a 7 series. As others have mentioned the double glazing does not make it bullet proof maybe hand bag though. Same old story if mum ain't happy not body is! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3308 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 it says "lowered" and looks a bit naff the way its sitting when snapped. Odd he didn't explain more. Probably preoccupied with getting his family jewels back. Yep Allan: "happy wife, happy life". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
