philwalter 30 Report post Posted October 11, 2016 I noticed it on a yard in Grey Lynn as I rode past - black with tan leather, non facelift headlights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
philwalter 30 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 Three E39 M5's hanging around this yard now. Two in black and a stunner in Le Mans blue with towbar. I don't know if they are all for sale, but makes for good perving. Anyone know the story - is the blue one coming up for sale ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BreakMyWindow 1870 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Looks like the one that was for sale a couple of months back in chch with a dog kennel for an interior. Looks much better now but how long will that re-dye of the leather last? Edited October 13, 2016 by BreakMyWindow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TermiPeteNZ 1302 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 Think you're right Martin! The leather looks miraculously better and overall the presentation is great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KwS 2373 Report post Posted October 13, 2016 It cleaned up well, as expected, but i too wonder how the seats will last considering how bad they looked before. Not a major though if it goes cheap enough. Wish i had the disposable cash to place a bid, i still dream of owning an E39 M5 one day, but the longer i leave it, the higher the prices.

BreakMyWindow 1870 Report post Posted October 14, 2016 Went had a look at it. Interior stinks of fresh paint which has been applied in really thick coats over all the damage. Aside from that it's reasonably tidy with usual scuffs and marks for a 16yo car. Wheels have been re painted silver at some stage and Service history is mostly complete. The vanos solenoids have been fixed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
