Yep, like that. A nice late one as well.

Wheels look wrong with such a big profile tyre, and just plain nasty really, but you have that in hand. I like the m5 wheels.

That's a really nice looking car, super late too.

I quite fancy a bit of E34 wrongness myself actually.

What's the MPG like? :o:

MPG isnt to bad - 25 normally but saw 30 all the way to Nottingham the other day.

With the bigger wheels, ive heard the M-tech suspension an handle bigger wheels much better than the stamderd stuff.

Ill also be looking for origional M5 M-Parralles cos there much lighter than the later e39 sport ones and copies.

Nice one Conan, looks a peach, not many left in that condition and with that mileage

i made the change from an E30 to E34, cant go back after having a 5 er now, the car is superior in every way, i really dont understand why E30 sports hold so much of their value compared to E34's.

My E34 here

Yaeh ive joined this forum and found it welcoming and very helpful. Already spent too much from its 'for sale' section!

Your car looks mint, think itwuold have to be an e30 M3 to intice me back now. Although that would be as well as..... Might not be quite as nimble but as an all-rounder the 5 destroys the older 3.

Save yourself Ԛ£1500 as well. (and cheaper for me to insure 8O )
