topnotchrally 152 Report post Posted May 13 (edited) It is nice, and it has a towbar 🙂 It can be useful. Wish it had a sunroof. Imported from Japan 2017, how sure of the low kms can one be? It's very unusual for wheel bearings to be going at this low mileage. Edited May 13 by topnotchrally 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz 1072 Report post Posted May 14 Don't use it and the bearings dry up or have condensation get into them 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Needs to be a more sorted 'heads up theres a mean deal here' type protocol. So those with cash in hand looking to buy don't miss out on the good ones 😧 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its lovely. I've been waiting for the right spec 740i to come up to manual convert. This one is so close, so rare to see a slicktop 740. I think no sunroof is a perk. If it was newer than 2000 I'd probably buy it. Edited Sunday at 03:56 AM by Harper 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topnotchrally 152 Report post Posted Sunday at 04:34 AM It seems he thinks the carpet on the dash is a selling feature🤦♂️ Nice car but a few thousand over priced. But if it was manual... https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/5335013274 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gaz 1072 Report post Posted 18 hours ago Can't help but feel this is over priced particularly based on the description. Also that it is listed under parts and not vehicles https://www.trademe.co.nz/5337124210 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turboray82 16 Report post Posted 16 hours ago Thats pretty cool but not 60k cool. I'd throw fake barn dust on it, then make a video pulling it out of a shed. Also listing under engines so they dont have to pay for a real listing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2183 Report post Posted 15 hours ago Would rather the one with a cage for $25K. Then you have $35K to spend on restoring it if you wanted to. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turboray82 16 Report post Posted 14 hours ago This isnt a BMW, but a local car i viewed and he's currently pissing me off. This car in good nick goes uncompiled goes for 8k. A stock nice one goes for 13-16k This one has a wof but it needs paint (redone and peeling) and the interior was dyed poorly. Its got terrible wheels and the top isnt closing properly. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/ford/mustang/listing/5329340267?archive=1 Its worth 4-5k. I need it for some parts, its too far gone to restore. Old fella, absolutely dreaming. He's also got 2 Audi's my mate is looking at scooping as well for parts.
