Love your old E34 525i Sport - I've had 2 in Daytona Violet and would love another as a daily – if I can ever find a good one.



Talking of Rondell 58s, they suit the E34 and E39 perfectly but do look a tad modern on my E24 when it's at rest.

Did your Avus 525 come from Reading, sure I've seen it before?

Hey Matt,

Though i'd recognised the car. Good to see your still a hardnut BMW fan whilst i became the traitor and went Jap.

You might be able to remember the following cars.






PS - Daytona is better than Avus biggrin

No wasn't me. I remember a long time ago we had a poll as to which colour was best, anus, calypso or gaytona. IIRC Gaytona won smile

I bought mine thanks to spending a couple of weeks smoking around in that 540i. It was lovely!

I've got some photos of your car with the spoiler, I'll post them up tomorrow.

Found it!

You take one Avus Blue 540i fresh from a hoon across the Black Mountain:



Carefully check the paint match and line up the boot spoiler:



and Voila!

Just another Avus 525 Sport. Of all the cars I've owned, it's the one I regret selling the most!
