mr E34

nice...best colour too by the looks!

Diamond Black looks the best in low light conditions, when too sunny takes on mettalic grey.

Looks like there are a few tidy 535is left, saw your pix's on the net a while ago.

Nice. Looks very loved!

Thanks, yours looks pretty sharp.

Nice!!! As a matter of interest, what did that set you back??

Had it a few years, stopped counting what it cost. Car cost $10k then, but needed work, added alloys etc etc.

My first E34 cost me 85k in 1989!!

Nice ride mate..really been liking the e34 shape latly.

Yeah E34 was penned by the head of BMW design Claus Luthe.(not sure about spelling)

Line up an E30 beside an E34 and you will be amazed at all the same creases etc but with far more emphasis on aerodynamics and filled out curves.

Great. It looks mint

I'm about to go down the german plates avenue for mine - might be something to consider for your E34 too? A little extra finishing touch with the black sides and surrounds

Good idea, std plate looks tacked on.

And immaculate engine bay too!

Yeah I've always had a soft spot for genuine Alpinas.

Thanks, I'm enjoying my 540is and planning on holding on to it for a long time.

Cleaned and took some pics yesterday actually - will have to post some up in the next day or so

So what other specs on your car? LSD? Looks like leather recaros too

Yes, fully loaded car.160,000km, local Auck car all it's life.
