Here's mine - if you also go on the BMW5.co.uk forum, sorry - you've seen this lot already!
A 1997 540i Touring Auto with the following options:
M suspension
M steering wheel
Comfort seats
6 CD changer
Retractable load floor
GSM car phone
Debadged
It's also still under the BMW warranty which is a real boon and probably rare at this age. One previous owner and 76,000 miles.
Had it 5 weeks, get 23mpg average (unprintable lows, highs of 26-27 on long trips) and absolutely love it.
It was totally standard when I got it but soon
updated to angels plus clear side and rear lights (all without those
nasty orange bulbs ). Wheels left alone
as they never kerb, look
great after 7 years and have affordable tyres. Gone for Goodyear F1
GS-D3's which I can highly recommend - quiet, comfortable and grip like
leecehes
This no badge estate car has already surprised a few people

hi retset i could not disagree more i think your tourer is abeaut,and as for looking as good as a saloon with the mobs you have listed i think it would look better ,modded saloons are here there and every were but tastfully modded tourers are few and far between, and such a sweet colour. Nice motor fella..

b8aulk,
Thanks for the nice comments. Yes, she is a beaut and I really dig the colour even though it isn't the easiest to keep clean.
It'll probably remain standard but I keep an eye on ebay etc. If some angel eyes come up at a decent price (not £300+ which is nearly dealer price) then I'll be sorely tempted. The wheels I have (16") look quite nice and give a decent ride and yet the handling is still superb so they may as well stay.
That said, Alpina ones are a fave of mine and one day I may see some original ones or reps and be unable to help myself...

You need to upload your pictures to a web/ftp server and link to them from there...
