E38 Built to Last

[TS999]

I knew there was a good reason that I chose to buy an E38... A few weeks a go some guy in a flashy Subaru decided he was going to smash into the back of me, he was only probably travelling 10-15 mph but unluckily for him he hit the wrong make of car...Damage to my car... small crack in the plastic strip that holds the parking sensors in place and a few skuffs on the rear bumper paintwork.Damage to his car... front headlamp off, indicator off, front bumper and skirt cracked and smashed, radiator pushed in... what a mess !!Just got the police report (in my favour) now im looking for a good place in PJ to repair, anyone heard of City Alignment in Damansara?T

..E38's are lovely..and when you hear that from guy who like roadsters only, that means something .. seriously, I even found e38 V12 here in malaysia, tried to sms, call guy, but no luck..nobody reply .. im glad your vehicle was not damaged in to any larger scale, but its no surprise..E38's are real example how BMW's should be builted, not like newdays fat, rounded look models..viva E 38..

E38 V12 in M'sia is rare. Finding one is near to impossible. If only this is US or UK where E38 V12's is
easily available. I wish all the best & luck in ur search of this amazing machine.

Alan has one, that we know. Who else in the forum or for that matter even outside this forum who owns this said model. I know none.
If my memory & my sources is correct, only 8 units of e38 750iL was brought & sold in Malaysia. Again I might be wrong on this.

I know they are rare, and i was really in to getting one (V12 only) and price was just ok (29K) .. unfortunatelly, nobody respond my calls or sms..so sad..i was willing to have my 2nd BMW next to my Z .. i really love that V12 powerplant and I was really willing to put some money in to that vehicle..sigh..I found it actually in MotorTrader, so unless someone playing bad joke, then , vehicle is for real..

If u r looking for V12's regardless of e38 or e32,then i can try to help u. No promises. My former boss owns an original e32 5L V12. Let me ctc him if he wants to sell his car.
