how do you actually get the monies with paypal.I have paid for a few things andsold a few things so have a few pounds in my paypal "Account",About 50 pounds i think

the whole long tube things twists and disengages from the headlight.Its about 60 to 70 mm long and the bulb sits right at the front,item 7

i love the people who do such idiotic things in 50 60 or 70 zones and 2 minutes later i pass them on the m way. i ussually sit on 108 figuri i am prolly going 102 actual.The impatients are prolly going 95.

looks odd with the back much lower than the front?

nice

got any pics of the interior brent?

i agree awesome wheels and awesome car but it doesnt qquite work for me.Does this mean the throwing stars might be available?

yes was a "std" option for these six speed manual cars,sorta like the 535 "is" manuals

mine arrived today too

i have got absolutely no idea what you guys are talkin about!

i am in for a NZ star set,about to make payment! EDIT ** my internet banking form requires a Name for the account to tbe paid into**

e 39 also has its own peculiar hub size,74.1 vs just about evry other 5,6,7 being 72.5mm

there are a few e 39 540 folk here,wait for their responsesHope you get o the bottom of it

is your mechanic a BMW specialist?If not take it to one who can scan for faults

thanks brent,rebuild is looking good mate.

is there something about the cam chain/tensioner that is a weakish point in these, and or s38 engines,or is it just the s38B38?

high ks in themselves is not a reason not to buy a car.Honestly if a car has been well looked after the ks are almost meaningless,its the overall condition of the car that counts.Of course most of our experience with high mileage cars belies this fact,but when you think about it cars are MEANT to wear out and be renewed.So the secret is to find a car which is more renewed thasn worn out,and the overall condition is the best indictaor of such a car.

and a manual gearbox

The wipers on E39 go the 'wrong" way too

why should they absorb it.This change will apply to every competitor and product so relatively speaking nothing will change.

very rare,in about four or five years (previous to the two above)i have seen two from memory,a black one in rotorua(so called snitzer) and a silver one in invercargill,they are a fantastic car in manual,I have driven one,strangely i was not excited by it.A e39 M5 is another level all together.You are talking nearly 100 hp more..

its not hard,on the 1st of the month,everything will go up by 2.5percent.Period.There will have to be lots of price alterations for large retailers.I cant see a case for any organisation to hold to a pre gst increase price,thereby losing 2.5 percent.

so what capacity was it and what will it be (you have stroked and bored right),and what comp ratio,was/will?

the e39 has a well known list of issues,and there is nothing there to be afraid of as long as the maintenance is up to date.A waranty on a e39 would be a waste of money imho.save your bucks and put it towards upgrades or future repairs
