Does anyone know of this E34 535i?

Recommended Posts

My flatmate is looking at this sexy wee thing, but, it's a bit far away from our current location of Bunnythorpe to go check it out.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-367181279.htm

I assumed as it's been for sale for quite some time someone on here would have some knowledge of it?

Any help is greatly appreciated, cheers, Doug.

It has been for sale since the end of last year. Same with the well overpriced white manual that is on there with the plate WOGBOS.

He isn't worried about it being auto, his last E34 was a very ridiculously specced facelift 520i (Couldn'tpull a dollar off a Jew)

I'll ask him though, I'd rather he got a manual so I can steal the keys.

He's currently driving a UZZ31 Soarer V8 that he's offered the dealer a trade with.

Do you think with all the options and tasty bits it's over priced?

I do remember looking at earlier this year on trademe before I went and brought a few bikes =D

Cool, thanks Brent. I may have to sell both bikes, a cheap 535iS would probably go up in value over the next few years, they're getting harder to find in decent spec and a white E34 with MTec kit does give me trouser tingles....

I had a look at this in January, it drives and looks the part though, i just had a gut feeling and left it.

For 5k it does seem like a good deal.

At 5K it is a good buy. It use to be closer to 8K.

Picked up my 535i manual for 1.6K, spent $500 on it and now it goes well.

Has it got all the Msport goodies though? He wants a good recaro interior, mst b leather and pref in black. Body must be straight and Mtec. Manual/auto is no big deal to him, he doesn't drive hard often, if at all, therefore no point having a manual.

Well aware of that, he wants the Msport suspension, both my E34 were non M-sport and to be fair not that great, his E34 was non-msport also and whilst it wafted well, it wasn't firm enough for a spirited drive every now and then.

Sorry to take this ever so slightly off topic, but can M-spec struts be rebuilt? I'm presuming not, and am figuring given the age and condition of my project to be that I'll have to replace all four corners, but thought it would pay to ask since the topic has come up ;)

I've had mine rebuilt twice so i'd say yes.

Are they not just inserts? Can pick up whole Bilstien struts new pretty cheap these days anyway.
