I have some e28 bits sat in my garage including a rear screen, a full bar one spanner large tool kit, a check light unit, electric mirrors and most of a m535i kit.

Cheap cheap to clear if you need anything.

Is it an auto or manual? I like the 528's and although I havent been in one the 180+bhp should be enough to get on with.

Nice

I ran an 535se with a dogleg. That's basically the m535i spec with out the body kit, it was white with a blue leather interior and a bit of rust on the arches. I sorted with a chip, set of poly bushes, spax adjustables, e34 callipers uprated disks & pads, 16" bbs from an m3 less than 2k all in. Looked like a shed went like stink. one of the few cars a regretted selling as stood with the cash in my pocket and watched go.

Andyboy, does the one on eBay have TRX wheels/tyres? I don't know how to tell the difference.

Which basically means one has to swap them for something decent i.e. 15" BBS, further adding to the cost of the car. Sigh...

Not really 15"bbs go for like £50 sometimes on ebay, you will get around £30-£40 weighing in the old metrics, I did.
