Looks GR8 !!

Thanks....I'll keep my eye's and ear's open....and remove my towbar :-)

Hi Adrian, nah stumbled on the website myself and it's amazing amount of collective knowledge !!. All good with the car, had an unplanned run down to Napier and back just after I got it and managed 10lt / 100km going down with 2 of us (interestingly 11lt on the way back with just me :-) ) so was pretty pleased with that. Planning to go into Botany Auto Worx (Glenn?) to arrange for fluid changes, general go over etc as it appears about due. Hopefully we'll catch up soon D

Thanks for that, work permitting (and assuming there is no upper age restriction :-) ) I'll pop in...what time do you kick off and how would one identify the BMW chaps ?

Correct it's not "arros's" old car although we did communicate on numerous occations....there were 2 very similar 540's for sale at the same time and I got the other one .......naturally I'm hoping it was the better of the 2 :-)

Hi, just bought an E34 540i so figured I best join a group of like minded folk who know something about them :-). First European car I've had in a long time so still giving the wipers a run for their money, indicators on the other hand hardly get any use at all..no doubt I'll get it right eventually !! Have done about 500k's in the 540 and it's really smooth and not nearly as bad on fuel as I thought it might be, anyway I figure none of us will be able to afford to run a V8 anything in a couple of years so best get the most out of one now In the meantime this looks like a really friendly forum with lots of help for "newbies" Cheers D
