Help With Buying A Bmw E38.

[shArk]

Hey, just wanted to know any helpful tips before I plan on buying one of these babies in the future once I've saved up enough!

Its hard to find a Manual 728i . They're the most economic with the inline 6 engine.

But the ones I did find for sale were these -

728i Auto (Inline 6 engine)-http://riyasewana.com/buy/bmw-728-sale-gampaha-193298 - pretty expensive in comparison

740i Auto (V8 engine 4000cc) - http://####/en/ad/bmw-e38-740i-1995-for-sale-colombo - good price but v8

I once did see a white colour 728i Manual for sale but it was quite high.

Looking forward to buy one to build up and because I am in love with old BMW's. In a year or two these prices will drop some more as the latest 7 series hits the local market.

Thanks in advance tc

How big is your repair budget? Because the key thing to keep in mind is that while these may be cheap to buy now, they are still very complex cars that were aimed at the top end of the market when they were new and as such the cost of running them is still at that level even though the entry price may not be.
