Fantastic to drive ;D Not fast in the low gears, but I think it could be quite nippy on a motorway. What really supprised me was how light the steering is. Don't feel any bumps and potholes and alike. Great cruser.
From a near empty tank I put £30 in which put it to just under a 3/4's on the guage, drove the 90+ miles back at 60 all the way and there is a shade under half left (as shown in picture above). Not too sure what the MPG is or wether that is good or bad. I don't think it's too bad myself, but then again, some of the fuel bills I've payed in the past!

Could you slot in a seven-series interior? You gotta have some faux-mahogany picnic tables  |

you wont be disappointed, e34s are awesome luxo-barges, and you wont find much better! cortinadale - don't touch a 518. underpowered by miles, will remind you of the weedy guy at the back of the cross country running you did in 1st year/form... find a minimum of a 520, preferably a 525.

Looks very tidy Colour looks like RoyalBlau Metallic - same colour as my parts car I'm led to believe that the majority of E32 7 series bits n pieces fit straight in/on - they're very similar cars, just one's got a slightly bigger shell Best place I've found in t'internerd for info is www.bimmer.info forums - if no-one on there knows the answer to something, it's probably not worth knowing :lol: |

Nice one, looking for one locally just like that. As much as I'd like a 525 ( or a 535.....or even a 540 ) I don't think I could do with the fuelage costs....... I NEED the 6 cylinder warble though.....so a 520 with a nice exhaust will do for now.... Good swap man... |
