_ethrty-Andy_ 2122 Report post Posted May 29, 2014 Haha yeah, but that would be the least of my worries at the moment. is it the early M70 or later M73 engine? they are both good engines IF maintenence is kept up to date, and of course there is a LOT of maintenence. I have spent not much less than 4K in various bits and pieces for just the engine alone on mine. though its basically all new now. Still not 100% but bloody close now ha Do have a soft spot for the E31 though!!!!! And the E34!!!! is it still a 520i or have you put a bigger engine in it? I got same economy from my E34 when it had the 2L engine in it as the 5L V12 that is in it now lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have crashed the car within recent months though uninsured etc. Yeah the E34 is running M52B28, tuned by Gavin at BMworkshop.. I am getting more mileage with the 2.8 than what I was getting with the 2.0. Your wagon build is awesome, difficulty? 1/10 haha... Brent@bmworld has a nice shell sitting there.
