Chaps

Wanted your fourpenneth on this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-525iX-Tou ... 2913633%26

Was searching for something different and like the idea of going back to 4 wheel drive for the winter.

Is this going to be an electrical nightmare or a steady, sure footed wafter?

I'm set on an e34, for size and build, would you go for this?

i just sold my one for £300 but it had no MOT which i was working on it to get a ticket.

From what i know, all the FWD parts are £££ to repair replace. They're a pretty robust/reliable setup. Though is the 4wd system. You don't want to be doing a clutch on one though!!

They're like a really bigh e30 4wd. Steering rack is the best bit they give alot more feedback than the box of 2wd.

They ain't quick thats for sure

I was looking at the grey one above. Made an offer and tried to arrange a viewing, got labelled a timewaster. Seller is a bit of a prick. And its been for sale for ages. Stinks a bit.
