BMW E39 M Sport, Talk to me

[pony]

There were 62 RHD manual tourings built. Theres a record of them all on the 5 forum. Sadly i'd wager well over half have gone. I'm after the only one built in Avus blue!

I reckon in time that getting an early snotter B10 4.6 e39 could donate its engine in time!

That 52,000 black car looks the tits its very similar spec to my bi turbo. Too nice for me that needs a garage. Pony all V8 e34s are wide grill cars

The drifters and kit car builders have hammering the numbers now as they get broken up, plus the nobbas who bodge them into e30's

Those are a set of A cups mate these are a set of DOUBLE Ds









This is and always will be in my mind THE KING OF BMW 5 Series E34

And then a bi turbo came along and nailed it to a cross




This is much nicer

V.much so...

[Low_E30]

I think I would choose E39 540i auto over E60 550i Manual if push cane to shove though.

That is an amazing and equally bizarre choice...

Abit like one saying, he would prefer to have a E12 518i auto over a E28 M5 with a dog leg box.....

Each to their own, and all that though.....

I prefer the BMW E39 5 Series FACELIFT over E60 looks wise

Though for £6k give me a BMW E32 750iL over any E34/E39 540i Touring/Saloon Manual/Auto so I can cruise around like an East End bad man Phil Mitchell

3 Owner 50k mile E32 750iL with ZERO rust and ALL ORIGINAL paintwork
£6k
And has LSD

The interior not even in the same league as that E34 M5 UK Limited Edition

You are correct, this blows the M5 interior!

+1. That m5 interior is disgusting!

[Simon13]

is the heated electric buffalo leather recaros not good enough over those manual non heated standard sport seats? Pony you must be p!ssed.

For a start its got that nasty SRS airbag wheel that cooking e36's had!

Those run out M5's had sh!t spec, no door blinds, sunroof, cruise, pikey air con, no heated seats. I'll stick with the B10 that got all of that

[Blitz]

My favourite is the Elekta tourings. Tabbaco full leather.

[Kos]

That's made me do a Pony

[zd3bx]

Brown does look quite smart, although that violet/cream combo is a bit blah

Those run out M5's had ********* spec, no door blinds, sunroof, cruise, pikey air con, no heated seats. I'll stick with the B10 that got all of that

The LE had sunroof and electric front seats.

I quite like the steering wheel looks brilliant and way better than the usual E34 ones
The AC on E34s is ice cold my uncle had 1995 N Reg 525i and the AC was colder than E46
Not sure about heated seats / electric blind maybe that was an option ?
Don't need cruise control prefer driving
Anyway one word CHAMPAGNE leather ....

PS Those recaros do look and are quite comfortable though

Pikey A/C as in manual, not climate control.

The E36 steering wheel is shite!

[pacerpete]

As with my fruited E320 shooting break The E34 pikey A/C is a much better more controllable system than the extra cost auto climate system . The later E34 airbag wheel is a bit grim , but not as grim as the earlier four spoke air bag bad boy which Simons , and most later Bi Turbos were originally supplied with

That is a waste of a German beauty, that's what it is. Feel sorry for it.

[pac1982]

So I think I may have changed my mind found myself looking at E38's and quite fancy a 728 I know it wont pull the skin off a rice pudding but its all about cruising in luxury in these bad boys

Fuel tank !!

[bss325i]

Fuel tank?

They rust, then leak, are BMW only and lots of ££££!

[pac1982]

Looks like around a £1000 job to replace, thanks for the heads up other than the smell of fuel any other ways to check the condition of the fuel tank, is it easy to get a good visual check of the tank?

[bss325i]

Torch and a ramp is best.

Or at least take a trolly jack with.

It's enough to write off your average E38.

[Brianmoooore]

£1000 that would be better spent on a LPG conversion!

[Kos]

So after 6 pages is the conclusion they are shIt and only good for the scrap yard?

A good one will be a good car

If still rock one, but would probably be 530i sport again

Not only rust, they also crack due to flexing. The only ones that last are those that have big dents in them
