Granitsilber Metallic.
Shadow line.
Black sports seats with memory.
Auto dipping rear view mirror.
AC actually works!
HiFi system 10 speakers!
17 inch real Alpina's, Can't remember the size exactly, rears are 265.
LSD.
And the best option ever is the electric rear window blind! I have the rear side blinds too!
Xenons.
Everything else as it should be apart from the clear front indicator lenses, they'll be replaced with orange.

Yes. The replacement self leveling devices scared me off!
Dampers have been replaced in the last 3 years too!

Need to sort the electric seat which has stopped. Me moving the seat forward has caused a plug to come loose! Tomorrows job.

Amazing these cars were so competent back in 1987!

Nicks ex ,who he foolishly impregnated, is Polish, I think there may have been some cross pollination going on as in recent years he has taken an unhealthy interest in clear indicators, blue LED bulbs, chrome tat etc :eek:

After 1600 miles since owning the car late last year I'm still loving V12 ownership.
After reading doom and gloom stories of these barges I haven't had any issues as yet! (Touch wood!)
Thoroughly enjoy driving this car.

Spent 4 hours last week changing the plugs which is a absolute mission on this! Plugs 11 and 12 are a pig. Sore hands indeed. Neighbours did have a chuckle to find me literally laying on top of the engine trying to get the plugs out!

Only little niggle i have is a leak in the washer system which dribbles out on the nearside above the foglight.
I'll be taking the front bumper off soon to have a look.

Getting bang on 20mpg overall from city and motorway after 1600miles, still haven't broken 500 miles to a tank but I'm close! 491!

Anyone know why one of my plug connectors is like this in the photo below. I know these engines have cylinder identification on the plugs. Is this it? Was on cylinder No 9.

Also my i.S will be back soon after some new suspension, steering and a non leaky fuel tank! Looking forward to getting it back.
Check out the pics.

That's beautiful, I loved my 87 735i, always told myself I'll get back in an e32 one day! Mine was bronze but I've always wanted a black one for the full on mob boss appeal :D
