Mark312 25 Report post Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) Hi Guys, I am starting to look for a E32 750IL to purchase, I have about $4,250 (Very tight budget, however I've always wanted a 12) to spend on one which Im hoping will buy me a resonable condition example. Do you guys have any tips to watch out for or be cautious of some models (I heared on a US forum that late 80's wiring harnesses were trouble, however im sure some of you guys are clued up on that sort of stuff) cheers lads Any help apprecitaed. :L Edited April 20, 2015 by benzboy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because they are just I bit too out of my price range currently...I'd be tempted to view the E34 wagon however maybe in coming months when I have more funds I will maybe look into that... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted April 21, 2015 I know of one for $8.5K. Overall pretty tidy but needs some mechanical work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember a mint one with 105,000km sold for 6.5 a couple of years ago, so might b a little steep? Edited April 21, 2015 by benzboy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted April 23, 2015 I was going to buy it and convert to M73 5.4L and 5 speed tiptronic or manual, but lost the opportunity on the donor and decided I've put too much love into mine to sell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something about its understated look attracts me! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
