Re: Not a BMW... but...wow... Mercedes 190E 2.3-16V Hi Rotary, Congrats on getting such a nice car - Looking forward to the pics. Just wondering, would you happen to know where to get original 16V kits or any other sportier ones other than stock in SG?

Re: WTS: My 1989 E34 - Gretchen" Thanks all for your nice comments and queries. The Car was sold to another BMW-appreciating owner last week. Miss her like Hell now ... Meanwhile, the MPV search goes on..But I reckon, an MPV would never excite me enough and I'd probably get sick of it within...

Re: WTS: My 1989 E34 - Gretchen" Had thought about that, but the cost of a weekend MPV which I was looking at does not justify it, unless I get just a normal, crappy one. No point paying so much just to drive on a weekend I guess. Thought of looking for 2nd hand OPC MPVs but none were...

Re: WTS: My 1989 E34 - Gretchen" COE expires on Apr 2009. I just went for inspection and passed (just changed prop shaft coupling) and my road tax was just renewed on 4 Apr for the next 6 months.

Re: WTS: My 1989 E34 - Gretchen" Family expansion dude. Need a more "family-friendly" vehicle with at least 7 seats to lug the whole family around le ...

Hi Guys, A Heartbreaking sale here, but I'm looking at letting go of my ride to make way for another family vehicle due to family expansion. My ride's essentially a 1989 E34, but alot of time, effort and cost has gone into upgrading her to a condition that's too good to just dump at the...

Re: SGT series car registration numbers are out for bidding For a single digit number, I think $13,000/- may be too low as well, unless there's really nobody that wants that number for the series, which is unlikely considering 7 is quite a hot favourite. Slightly above $10,000/- may secure...

Re: Safety when driving into JB/Malaysia Yo Dude, As a really worse-come-to-worst or last resort alternative, was thinking since you have family across the border in JB, you could also explore the option of popping over via cab (Those yellow Malaysian ones) and then have your relatives pick...

Re: heavy vibrations in the steering Dude. If you continually encounter this problem, especially on an E34, its a signal to get your front control arm bushes replaced. That's usually the main cause of the vibrations. Once you've got that done, go do an on-wheel / high-speed balancing for best...

Re: WTS: BMW 18inch rims CHEAP with good tyre On your tyre there should be a little slot where they imprint and emboss some numbers. The date of manufacture usually comes in 4 digits - e.g. 0206. The first 2 digits refer to the week and the second 2 digits the year of manufacture. So if its...

Re: WTS: BMW 18inch rims CHEAP with good tyre What's the date of manufacture of the tyres?

Re: Safety when driving into JB/Malaysia Some people I know still do use these old school steering/gear locks. Although nowadays the thieves have their way to crack it somehow, its nonetheless still a deterrent in the sense that it would take them some time to break through these locks and...

Re: Safety when driving into JB/Malaysia Hi Jase, I drive in once to twice a week, either to pump petrol or head down to stay at Permas Jaya. By virtue of driving an SG car into JB, you're more or less a 'target' in a sense that some of the JB drivers do deliberately drive more aggressive...

Re: How much you bidded for your special car no. My family was quite fortunate for one of our previous car numbers. It was an E-series plate with the number 6677. Didn't even need to bid, came with the car and a little help from the salesperson. I did try to bid 2525 for my previous ride...

Re: TP - From Rex To Evo? Think it looks more like a spoof. The font type for the word "Police" is different from the real font. Moreover, it lacks the SPF crest and "Expressway Patrol" Label.If the TP stringently follows a code of application for emblems, don't think they would allow the...

Re: Looking for E34 rear bumper in Malaysia Yo Dude, I don't think they'll come much cheaper in JB too - Price is roughly about the same. Not sure which yard you went but last I checked a couple of months back a rear bumper should cost around $350 to $400. $500 is slightly expensive.

Re: Help : where to get good & cheap tyres Yup. That's cost per tyre.

Re: Help : where to get good & cheap tyres Justin at Poh Heng Battery and Tyres at AMK Ave 10 will be able to help you out. Pretty good service and reasonable prices. Just don't go there on a weekend... :) Give him a buzz at 9836-8640. I believe 17" tyres will cost between $150 to $200+...

Re: What they did to SG cars at Genting Highlands!!! Bro, don't think CCTVs will help much either. There's quite a fair bit of Polisi presence there also, but don't think it helps much. For all you know, if they install CCTVs, thieves will end up stealing them and selling them off!

Re: What they did to SG cars at Genting Highlands!!! Well Herk, sad to hear you encountered reckless bus drivers. Can understand that phobia, my aunt took a bus once and the bus driver actually fell asleep at the wheel! Crazy shit! The Bus companies I usually take have so far been OK for...
