any of the palmy boys know how much it is for a service at jeff gray ?? only 20 kays away serves me right for not keeping an eye on the dots =/

Cheaper to DIY service, standard oil change is about $120+GST as far as I remember, if you need a hand with anything hit me up, were you parked in the square last night?

Hey all, i'm new to the forums and to BMW's! Have predominintly been a Subaru man but saw this car last week and thought, it was too good of a deal to turn down!
Do most of my own work on my cars and find forums are always a great place to pick peoples brains and those who have done it before.

Cheers

Hi all. Just got myself the car I always wanted when I was 11. A few years on and I finally made it, just because a mate was selling his.

Came across the forums and saw that this thread hasn't been updated for a good year and a half so figured I'd post. Haven't got any photos of my own yet but I'll get that sorted on the weekend. In the meantime, here's the Trade Me photos.



(don't worry, he kept the license plate)

I've been in car forums before and they've been an awesome way to get info, advice and tips so keen to get stuck into these forums when I get more used to my new car.
