[SuperCornflakes]

Dear sifus,Am thinking of getting a second hand 90' e34. What should I look for or check or need to knows when viewing the car? Any help would be much appreciated. :biggrin:

bro, u can browse the subject inside this forum..there are a lot of things you need to look b4 commit..bring someone who are familiar with e34 to inspect the car u want to buy..history such as wear & tear, mods done are important to avoid getting a lemon...all the best!

Thanks lots anakin but I've already viewed 3 of them today and fell in love in 1, lol.
It's a 90' e34 registered in 1992 in Zinnober red. With 17" ACS rims and the condition is superb except for some interior fixtures.Sigh sigh, in big dilemma now.

Hmm.. What kind of difference are we talking about?

quite a number..post 94 has big nose, aerodynamic side mirrors, dash walnut finishes, airbag steering wheel (3 or 4 spoke), seats, vanos engine etc just to name a few...

but i find that post 94 models 525i very difficult to come by...mostly are 520i and we don't want one of those unless on tap power and fuel consumption is not an issue...

I don't know, might change to SR or RB?
So I think 520i is fine for me.
