[QUOTE="seech, post: 197298, member: 4572"] Zoggee, I agree with you. If you put in some preventive maintenance and don't cut corners by replacing worn out parts with used parts then not many problems. In fact, some BMW enthusiast say E34 is one of the most reliable and least problematic of all the BMW's. Furthermore the cost of buying the car is quite low. Even if you spend a few k to repair its still much lower than a new Proton/Perodua. For the money I spent on my car, I can't even afford a brand new Kancil. I know which I'd rather drive around in. As for the radiatior issues, they shouldn't fail so regularly. I only caution those that are buying an older BMW that they should expect to change one due to the age of the radiator. The plastic just won't last forever. Same issue with the plastic blades on the water pump. BUT having one fail on a regular basis maybe due to other issues. Overall I'm very pleased with my E34. No regrets. [/QUOTE]
