andrewm 236 Report post Posted January 31, 2019 Better flash the cash if you really want one. There are only a handful of really good ones left and of the two owners i know, the phrase ‘from my cold dead hands’ comes to mind. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are only a handful of really good ones left and of the two owners i know, the phrase ‘from my cold dead hands’ comes to mind. I still want one, too. And I'm now at the stage where I'd be happy to pry one from someone's warm hands - even if that means splurging a bit of cold hard cash at them. Please PM me any name/number and I'll get on the phone. Thanks Edited February 14, 2019 by Longi spelling Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3570 Report post Posted February 14, 2019 25k is very reasonable for nz new and 170kms. is it PFL? i would imagine that would be a pretty easy sell 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3570 Report post Posted February 15, 2019 A beautiful 2002 one came up just now in wanaka. Asking 40k. Looks like if not the one owned by darren? From here a few years back. Can anyone confirm? @BreakMyWindow? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssbmw 220 Report post Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) Yep that is Darren Gledhill’s old car. Beautiful. Quite a few after market mods though -which won’t cater for everyone.. Darren was anecdotally the original owner of the highly discussed Lemans Blau example that was the subject of an insurance rebuild - and replaced that car with this black one.... Darren was once a regulator contributor to this site... Edited February 15, 2019 by ssbmw Grammar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didnt realise it was that long ago! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssbmw 220 Report post Posted February 15, 2019 You know it’s funny I have been on this site regularly for over 10 years (without being a regular contributor) and overtime you notice the absence of people who were regular contributors. He is one of them. Last I heard was that he was selling his M5 to replace it with a X5. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ssbmw 220 Report post Posted February 16, 2019 Obviously because I currently reside in the USA, always studying prices of these things being marketed here. I think based on the mileage, condition, and provenance it wouldn’t be unrealistic to see a vendor marketing a car like this in the USA for $40-$45k USD. If it was in a Uber rare colour combo maybe more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
