Collected the car yesterday, man what a head turner! Needs a bit of under the skin tlc but generally not in bad nick! A big shout out to Splintheter for dragging me around yesterday and to letting me store the car by him. End of a 9 year search and now the very very proud owner of an E28!!

So with the purchase of the car,comes the aftermath of getting parts!
So been on eBay checking for parts, so far have ordered a new gear shift boot, two new electric seat switches and the rubber insulation for the boot. Gotta love shopping online!!
Will keep the thread updated as and when I get stuck into the car. So hopefully new parts arrive in the next short while,and I can get stuck in. So far so good!

Thanks guys! And so the lookout for parts begins! Couple of things, does anyone know where I can get a set of BMW Style 5 (E28 M5) rims from? Or Alpinas?

http://www.bmwstylewheels.com/bmw/5

I have a set of e28 M5 BBS rims. I have a set of 5. One has curb rash. The other 4 only need a respray...they are straight. Don't really want to sell as these rims just drive so nicely on my 325iS. But if you are still interested whatsapp me your number to +264 81 129 6996 and I'll send you pics tomkrrow and we take it from there. By the way I am from Windhoek Namibia


I can also hook you up with a friend of mine who recently sold his e28 M5. Might have some parts still..

Thanks Jody! It is an awesome feeling, just a bit sad I can't spend more time working on the car right now, but I'm not too stressed cos it's letting me get all the bits and pieces I need for it in the meantime.

More pics to follow as soon as I can get the car out and take some decent ones!

Just as a matter of interest, does anyone know of a good autotrimmer in Cape Town, or potentially have a line on a set of E28 electric seats? Can't find anything on the Gum, OLX etc.

Thanks Baz, did drop you a line yesterday!
