Ozihotspudz BMP .:R32 - New Member

[Ozihotspudz]

Hi. Damian here from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.

Finally I have got my hands on an Mk4 BMP R32. It was bought recently from the 2nd owner in Brisvegas. It is pretty well stock, other than an APR chip. Condition wise it is excellent all round and well looked after. 62000 klms.

The car failed the roadworthy due to tyre wear. So it now sports a new set of Yokohama Advan Sport v103. So far so good.....

Love to post some pics but not sure how to?

[Manaz]

Host the images on one of the image sharing websites, and they tend to give you forums code to put pics into your posts.

Looks very nice Damian. My advice would be to delete the front plate holder for a much "cleaner" look.
I purchased my car with similar k's around 6 months ago. You will grow to love it.
According to the R32 Registry, You are one car above Balkanac's, also in BMP.
Any future plans for it?

Thanks for the tips. Love this car already...the sound, seats, grunt etc etc. I wanted to buy one when new but had already bought something else prior to the announcement of this limited run. I also like the fact that there are limited numbers as well.

As for mods? Well nothing really at this stage. Future plans would be a sunroof (?), "fix" the suspension, new sound system & euro plates. The APR chip seems to give it a real boost in power/torque but haven't seen as real figures on this. I intend to keep the car pretty close to standard.....

Yeah, Ken the previous owner mentioned this. So that was you? I looked at the car about 10 days prior to this and it took that long to convince my wife to buy it (she wanted an RX. Anyways as soon as I got 1/2 a yes I was on the blower and made an offer.

I almost bought the blue one in Hamilton but he took off to Mackay before I could look at the black one. It was a good car too.....

Hope you find another R32 for yourself. It will be worth the wait.

Don't ruin it with a sunroof. Cars just aren't the same once an aftermarket roof is installed.

As much as I miss my old sunroof from my polo GTI a sunroof was never a factory option on the Aus delivered R32. It would spoil it big time.
