E38 740i Msport

Recommended Posts

2001 740i M-Sport $7000

 

Genuine Msport 740i. Ex Japan, build date 21-3-2001. 195ks

Sports diff so quicker of the mark the a std 740.

Sports seats and black sports trim. 18” Mpars of cause with lower factory sports springs , rides lovely yet still handles really well.

Too many cars and we’ve had 4 years, time to go to a new home.

Lots of work completed on all the normal E38 things, this is our third E38 and unique being a sport.

 

Pros

Mechanically very good.

Told Gear box was refurbished by previous owner and never had an issue.

Timing chain guides, water pump etc all changed 2 yrs ago professionally completed. $5k

Lots of coolant hoses and pipes changed. All the nasty rear ones and almost all the front ones.

Water heater control valve recently rebuilt.

Power steering lines and reservoir replaced

Suspension rear control arms replaced.

Front arms and thrust set replaced this year. Drives beautifully.

Replaced front and rear license plate holder for Euro ones from Japanese for a cleaner look.

 

Interior headliners A,B,C and rear parcel shelf all professionally recovered. Perfect and like new.

Radio unit updated to NZ for RDS stations.

Inside lights all replaced with led for an updated and modern look

Reversing camera installed and links to the video unit

 

Cons

Pixels on dash need replacing.

Outside is very tidy for a 20yr old car with a few stone chips and general marks

Tyres are ok and passed recent warrant, probably only a year left in them

Damn, this would be a fantastic weekender for me... hopefully I'll get a job quickly in the new year - though I don't doubt you'll find a home for it sooner, GLWS :thumbs-up:
