Couple of interesting things i note, its a Jap import (imported in 99, cars a 97), and the vin from carjam raises some red flags to me. A silver 735I eh? Also, arent they Alpina wheels, not ACS?

last i saw, wasnt his one quite tidy? Its hard to see from the TM pics, but im sure thats the same E36 i saw here in Welly a few months ago, with "V" branding along the sides. Was built for promo work, and rough as guts.

Surprisingly tidy, reasonable KM and as everyone else has said, it looks like it would be worth fixing. This is a good DIY guide for doing the adjusters, much easier on the pre-facelift lights. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showt...Adjuster-Repair Some info for doing the sway bar links, http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=391817 And this is an amazing thread regarding rebuilding the whole rear suspension setup (to give you an idea of whats involved in replacing what you need) http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showt...ension-Overhaul

How many km does it have and what condition is the rest of the car? E39s are getting cheap now, it might be cheaper to sell it and get a cheap one that has had all the work done already if yours isnt tidy.

Gorgeous looking car, also have a soft spot for tech 2 sedans. LOVE the wheels! Interesting reading indeed. Carjam says its never been registered overseas and this is the original build sheet. Sounds like a lot of dealer added options when first sold.

I also have the powerbuilt branded one in 1/4" drive (already have 3/8 and 1/2" drive mechanical wrenches). Got it specifically to do the super low torques used on my honda valve cover. I tested it against my 3/8 wrench on another higher torque bolt and it was spot on. Im happy as with it, easy to use and accurate. Got to be careful when doing low torque though that you dont overshoot the target as itll go up quickly. As mentioned above, it is large and needs a bit of space around it to use.

FYI another good site i use for part numbers is realoem.com

I have an E36 coupe lined up. Cheers

Im curious as to why a 99 E39 doesnt have steptronic, was that an optional extra? Thought at that age they all had it. Also note that there is an error code logged on the OBC. Could be something as simple as low washer fluid, or not. The blue one looks very neglected, would not touch.
-
Up here in wellington i priced up getting the front bumper of my old Hellrot E36 repainted. Excluding removing/refitting, or blending to other panels, i was looking at a touch over $300. For large panels like that you would want to blend them (especially the bonnet), and paint costs will depend on the colour.

Interesting, first E34 i have heard of that came with run flats. Moot point, but interesting to me.

jebus, 108,000ks is now considered high mileage?!
-
i assume this is the same M5, in his other listing.
-
Surely a dealer would stock them for next to nothing?
-
I would have thought it was pretty self explanatory.... Ray converted it from SMG to manual for the client/seller?
-
As mentioned, definately check for the jatco jerk. Mine was a big thump (and holding gear for longer than normal) changing from first to second gear and was worse at high rpm/throttle. It got to the point i couldnt trust it to get me across a busy intersection, so had to convert to manual. A thump is not normal. I thought nothing of it when i test drove the car.

Its a + paddle for sure,
-
There are two types of inverter cable depending on age of the preuni white macbook, you may need to swap that over if you get a different one to your existing one. Otherwise all the panels are the same.
-
they have since said that it was rebuilt due to failed cambelt and done under mechanical warranty. Appears more cosmetically ruined than anything, so could be tidied up with some work. Seeing what other verts are going for, could be worth it.
-
My e46 counts down the km to the next service, doesnt have coloured blocks like my e36 and e39 had. Could it be check control picking up on aftermarket lights or something? A picture of what you mean would help.
-
How on earth do you keep getting all these awesome cars?! 635, 540it and now the M5
-
jeez, a bit overboard with the HDR on those photos....
