pics of my new 95 525i auto from japan

http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=744038

here she is below, genuine 70k miles mint.  525i auto vanos, electric heated seats, sunroof, bilztein suspension shocks and springs, acs full kit incl rear spoiler, facelift model. All ineed is a set of clear lense indicators for the rear and she's done, maybe the wheels sprayed black would look cool. Opinions?   the e30 m3 i sold is in similar condition.

yep sold the black one for 2k, you can see her in a pic above in the background, a mate bought her and is changing her to manual with lsd. absolute bargain but i had no other offers on her and i needed room. autos are hard to shift i guess but with all the genuine acs gear and absolutley no rust anywhere she was a bargain and had low mileage. she also had an acs steering wheel which i heard are expensive. this one only got here a couple of weeks ago from japan. when i posted before i had just won her at auction. well worth the wait though i am confident you won't find cleaner anywhere. she won't be for sale lol

all bmws have fog light anyway, and we are kph not mph in Ireland like the rest of europe bar Uk, I've brought in other performance cars from japan and no foglight is needed to pass the test if it's not standard.

this car cost me 1700 euro incl fees at auction about 1150k sterling, then another 1k in vat duty handling shipping etc thats 2700, vrt will be 765 so all in about 3400 euro or 2300 GBP, whatever you buy her for in japan it will be roughly double by the time she's home.

Yes great looking car noeman. Well ware. I'd leave the wheels as they are
though. If you want to go for black rims I'd buy new ones with a polished or
chrome rim so they don't look like rental car steel rims as you're driving
along.

Arches look pretty filled IMO because the car is lowered. (are they 16's or
17's? ) But 18's with a deep dish would look pretty cool too.

Absolutely love it....looks likes the dog's...oh! hang on. That is a dog!

Don't mess with her...she's beautiful!

Try "too harsh"

Looks like a minter! Did you get all the manuals and service books with it?? I can see it has an absolutely massive spec aswell!! Nice AC Schnitzer bodykit.
