Yep... In great condition compared to its age. Went because a friend is interested. But I already have my E36 and can't part with her.

the e38 is probably the best looking of the series... how much are they going for?

hang on, isn't it the 740's that come with the V8 ?

Lovely car though - commands a lot of presence

The 730i does come with a V8, it seems..

This wouldn't happen to be the one that was advertised on AL recently?

As for BMW V8's.. there's an E39 540i on 300- (or 301-?) plates, running around.. must be a quite a bruiser. Personally, I fancy the 530d.. all that torque

rightio then!

That e39 540i is the only one in the island afaik - originally owned and imported by Sidath Fernando if i'm not mistaken...

that too changed hands for something in the high 20's a few years back if i recall right - was mint then.

speaking of E39 diesels, did anyone else notice the rather reasonably priced one in last wks H*t Ad at 3 million!

Good info.. thanx!

High 20's sounds like a steal, for that much car.. could scarcely imagine how (badly) it does on juice Seems to be driven by a female now, at least it was, every time that I've caught a glimpse (of the car)

The one in the paper was a 525Tds on a 65- plate, wasn't it? The car market being what it is now, I wonder what a well looked after 02' - 03' 530d would settle at? How do the BM Diesels fair in the long run and at higher miles?
