oscar90 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 So after finally letting go fo my E36...sort of... i replaced it with a 5 series, and i can understand why people like them, this is SO much nicer crusing in and out of Rolleston in! smooth and quiet pretty well optioned...a million airbags, TV, tiptronic, sensor wipers, M steering wheel, electric seats etc, the usual i'd say although i dont know why BMW decided to use gray as an interior colour!..was gay in my 3 series and no doubt it'll be gay and dirty in this 5 series tinted windows will hide it one day wheels are curbed and paints starting to flake off but eventually i'll try get some nice 18" BBS's Tiptronic is awesome...still havn't got over the novelty haha afew more days and i'll be sorted, want to get the TV working in motion and hook up an ipod or something so will look into that for music and movies...i hate CD's lol ANY info on this would be appreciated, just reply here or PM My E36 is still floating around....my sister has a bitchin' first car damn it beats the mirage i had lol And My E30 is going slow...rusty nuts are gay (no offence to gingers ment) Anyway, Pics Cheers, Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

allan 295 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) Good to see another E39 join the gang If you don't mind which way is the shift when using the tiptronic move shift forward to go up, move shift backward to go up?

Looks very nice. The clear lights all around make a huge difference. Edited July 24, 2009 by Nick021 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark 178 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 Nice car... I love the Style 32's, possibly my favourite BMW wheel. You're going soft on us now though, you won't ever want to drive the E30 now you've experienced the comfort of a 5'er! Good to see another E39 join the gang If you don't mind which way is the shift when using the tiptronic move shift forward to go up, move shift backward to go up? Allan there is DIY to change this if you want. I have it in an issue of Total BMW somewhere, they did it on their E39 project car. It's probably floating around on the net somewhere too.

mtk540 3 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) Nice one Andrew If it weren't for the "edit - the grey", shadowline and M steering wheel it looks exactly like mine right down to the style 32's PM Jochen - he can get the TV working when in motion.
