mornin everybodypeeps! my friend is thinkin of buying a 530 V8 monster, but on the parkers guide it said the V8's were a little more fragile than the 6's, but nothing more. could anyone shed a little more light on the subject? and what are they like for a bit of tweaking?

i know its in a 5, i apologise for this not being e30 talk, but just after some advice and thought you hero's would be the best to ask!

this should probably be in the other bmw section.


Dont bother with the 530 engine,go for the 4 ltr or even better the later 4.4 ltr
