Bought this completely original 1995 740 as a cheap run-around to replace my bread van M Coupe which was eating too much cash...this probably will as well but paid much less for it.....it's done 73,000 which is really low, does need a good service including changing the gear box oil (no problems with autobox but just a precaution)which i'm getting done next week...obviously completely different from my old m Coupe, the restrained V8 noise is pretty addictive!! I will keep it completely standard and not change a thing cosmetically at least.....these pics were taken after giving it a good clean inside and out at my parents place a couple of weeks ago......





Now replaced M key ring with a 7 series one.....!!





it replaced this..

Forget the cars, your house looks great and with loads of land to tinker with motors.

unfortunately it's my parent's house! but it's great to go up up there every couple of months, loads of space to work on the car

What's that little pedal for where the clutch would be?

Looks like a foot hand-brake, note the switch to right of wheel. My Citroen XM has the same set up. No use for traditional hill-starts though!
