The pictures will do the talking as I have no words.
Just happy to be back in a BMW and in a what a way!

I saw this one. Really wanted her but still working on shifting my Merc.

This car is really a one in a million! Many many updates are needed here!

Look after her and if you ever decide to sell :fencelook:

hhahahah thanks bud. I waited for your reply. I knew you will be all over this.

Now I know why you and many others always regard the E39 as one of the best BMWs ever made.

Waiting for Fordkoppie and Victormike now :biglol:

This was a really a dream come true.

If I'm not mistaken I think the E39 540i manual was produced in a limited number, much like the E34.

This was a really a dream come true.

I was even in contact with the owner. Was making a plan for my dad to run down from Howick to check it out.

I'm glad she's gone to a good home! One of very few in the country and one of even less in that condition!
