VHB 36 Report post Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) Hello - My names Dan. I'm from Wellington. And while I don't quite own a BMW yet, I'm on the hunt! I've been lurking around the forums for a bit, so I thought I better sign up and introduce myself. Anyway, hopefully one day I can fully join the ranks. In the mean time I'm enjoying checking out some of the awesome projects you have underway. Cheers Dan Edited April 26, 2017 by VHB Context 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've got a friend with an E36 who's looking to get involved in the 26th drive. I'm thinking of tagging along with him. He just needs to hurry up and register on the forums... *nudge* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VHB 36 Report post Posted April 26, 2017 Trigger pulled! After spending the last several months flicking between the older and newer generations BMW's I've settled on this gem. 1990 BMW E34 535i - Some of you may know the original owner - Don. He's had this beauty for 18+ years and has shown it nothing but love and attention. Can't wait to bring the E34 out on some drives, rather than being @Phatmuffins Co-Pilot. First order of business - New wheels! (Currently leaning towards some BMW Style 37, though still exploring options) 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted April 26, 2017 Luv the E34. Personally I've never been a fan of M-pars. I kinda like the wheels you've already got on it though as always we build our cars for ourselves. Yours is a stunning example. Well done. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3318 Report post Posted April 26, 2017 ^^^this ? Yeah, sharp e34 you've scored there, you should be able to just keep it maintained and enjoy it. Look forward to seeing you/it at the next meeting. nought wrong with being a co-pilot! ? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TermiPeteNZ 1318 Report post Posted April 26, 2017 Congrats Dan - it's a beaut! I actually quite like the wheels that are on it - but it's a personal preference thing. Agree some Style 37s would look nice. Look forward to seeing the car soon. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
