Course there are a lot of cars there to put right cost ££££ but if enough positives is it worth saving ?

Too many E34 M5 owners skimp in things like SLS and choose some aftermarket option therefore losing the stock original specification of what is a very rare model

Yes and it's normally old and f*cked on e34's.

£500 for each rear shock which is normally leaking and they are BMW only!

Plus crusty metal SLS pipes all make for a boring and expensive repair hence why many get the SLS delete and some bilsteins.

Even just to get through the MOT is going to be £££ I suspect.

Hope it doesn't get fragged though. :(
