Very nice. Welcome to the forum. Would that be a NZ delivered car?

Cheers, No first registered 3/90 in UK then the couple brought it to NZ 4/97. I got it last November and it had been looked after very well just clocked 90kmiles.

Not many 653csi/M635CSI on the road these days here. The days they used to tear Wellington CBD Street are gone ? some pic on their hay days in Wellington.

Hi there. Welcome. I'm up on the Kapiti Coast. You're right, don't see many on the roads, although strangely always 2 or 3 on TM

Love NZ- wife and I did a camper van road trip around most of the South Island and bits of the North a few years ago. Planning a return in a few years - Gods playground in terms of breathtaking scenery and fantastic people too.

For me, one of the best colour combos.., while I like and respect original, that car would look awesome with some 16 or 17 BBS wheels..
