e34 535i se

[sprouting]

Picked this up nearly two weeks ago now, very pleased so far, it's not used for adaily commute so fuel consumptions not such an issue.


Ignore what looks like an oil leak, my heart sank when i sore it on the first morning after picking it up, so i parked it in another spot and all was well and the oil stain on the road must have been there for a while.


Interiors all in one piece and clean, no rips in the seats just the drivers door arm rest has a slight nick in it.


this is the worst part of the car and the area around the fuel cap is starting to bubble so that will need some treatment soon.

That's a very tidy looking car. How does it run? What is the mileage? I love a nice tidy E34, I need to get mine cleaned up now!

One of the most driver-centric dashboards ever: that 211 bhp will serve you well.

I should further add, that in auto mode, it's real world charms are all the more magnified.

millage is 133800, it runs sweet as a nut just a very slight blow from the exhaust which i'll try and patch up for now, i gave the interior a quick clean with the magic sponge before the pictures but it was pretty tidy anyway.
I just need to give it a wash and polish now, then change the engine oil & filter & the atf oil. I'm not realy a diy type but i'd like to give it ago myself with this one.

Nice car, had e34 f reg 535 for years until it dead a boiling death after rad pipe burst,
a sad sad day, the auto in sport mode is lively, if your interested, selling complete e34 leather door cards the lot, no rips, would finish car off nicely. Just watch temp gauge, an check ALL rad pipes. Would love a manual one but new project started.

Thanks for the offer but i actually prefer the cloth interior, and after the w124 merc i had with leather before i think the dog would prefer cloth aswell as he didnt appreciate ending up on the floor every time i had to brake.

Ok no bother, enjoy the motor, they are lovely to drive and still look well after all these years.
Will be sad to see my old one go, but need to make room for new project.
