Eerste Geluk Motors in Bloemfontein... From what I saw they deal in pretty decent cars, had a couple E60's and E90's floating about, I didnt take a very close look as I only had eyes for one car :rollsmile:

Ek gaan jou later skiet :fencelook:

Had her now for just over a month... Amazing in every way... Still makes me smile every time I jump in... Sometimes in the evenings I go out to the garage and make sure she's still there :rollsmile:

Only niggle so far is that she needs a new viscous fan clutch which I'm having sorted out soon :thumbs:

Will update soon with some more pics :inlove:

Have you tried g-drive online?

 

[RAArmstrong]

I looked on G Drive a while back... The price is pretty good, I'm just not so sure who makes it... My Mech can get me a Behr one at a very good price... Think Behr is the OEM one :fencelook:

 

[ChefDJ]

I can't seem to find what you're looking for on g-drive, otherwise I would have told you what brand :thinking:

 

[RAArmstrong]

I found it there a while back...

try silverton radiators in PMB they have good pricing on Behr

If the viscous is stuck (doesn't disengage) I would be careful as sometimes the blades come loose and goes through the bonnet.

Personally I would buy one from the dealers. We have tried some aftermarket ones and they all suck.

Viscous fan isn't engaging so the electric fan is taking the load... I'm not going to buy some crap but if BMW is selling me Behr in a BMW box and I can get the same Behr part for a bit less then perhaps its worth my while...
