Smart, they're good solid old barges; that looks like alot of car for the money, and a nice colour too. I bought an '88 535iSE off my brother for £200 a few months ago following the sale of my E30s and I'm impressed. Only snag is the heater's stuck on! :x

Good luck with the MOT.

The fuel hingle is £5 from BMW and well worth it - they are an absolute arse to remove from a scrapper.

Pray that it's not an auto as they're mobile road blocks. :D
