My e34 M5

[SP33DYV]

Ek is groen van jaloesie, Chris.
Bloody good looking car.:thumbs:

Beautiful example - cleanest I've seen and driven. Tell these guys what you paid Chris so their notion of finding a clean example like this at the absurd prices bandied about on the forum is quashed once and for all.

Oh - now add some forced induction to convert it into a stunner with lots of ommph!!!

Thanks Anthony,
Let’s just say that what I paid for mine, I could have bought a really nice e39 M5 or ANY e36 M3 my heart could have desired that was available during my search period.
But like they say – You want it, you pay for it. :rollsmile:
The same goes for the e30 325iS. Not that I would ever, but there are people paying e46 M3 money for them and my guess is that a clean and original e34 M5 is also heading that way. The e28 M5 is also there already.
Anyway, I really don’t care that I overcapitalized, since I don’t intend on selling, and considering [driver’s car]value for money, I am happy. That is why I am not locking it away in the garage. It merely made financial sense in the long run to buy one that doesn’t need work opposed to a cheap one that needs tons especially with the eye watering expensive ///M parts. That and the fact that I am too lazy to take on a project like Adi for whom I have great respect tackling such a mammoth task. I will still consider a restoration of such magnatude on an old Ford, but not a motorsport BMW.
That is why I still say hang on to yours except when I, Uber, or the Visser brothers want it :fencelook:

PS - forced induction.....pfffft:biglol:. If i want to go fast, I just ask my dad for the keys of one of his V8s

Quality will stay with you long after the memory of price has evaporated.
As with all things in life you get what you pay for.
A very neat example and worth every cent you paid for it I wish you many hours of driving pleasure SAFELY.

Check out Fordkoppie's profile. "If it ain't OEM, I probably won't like it."

It's original.

Unfortunately I have let myself and you down this one time.
They are reps. But a damn near identical attempt though
