Purchased car in Sept. 2016 with144,918 miles after falling in love with E34 wagons. This car was hand built back when BMW had something to prove about the qualityand superiority of their cars, with a solid inline 6. I found this car and Carfax showed it lived most of its prior life in Arizona and California. Purchased as my midlife joy ride with the idea that I would take a solid little car and make it perfect as my weekend get away vehicle. I have the records showing I paid $5500 for car, then another $1526 once my local BMW shop had a chance to go through it. Car needed and got, new motor mounts, exhaust bracket mounts, new Sears Diehard battery, oil filter housing and hose M-52, air intake boot, coolant renewal. I have continued to maintain the car and have subsequently replaced the expansiontank, radiatorcap, brackets, hood shocks,upper belt, trunk shocks, upper radiatorhose, M50 thermostat housing, thermostat, water pump, headlight inner covers, coolant level sensor, brake light switch, as well asroutineoil changes. I also purchased new OEM BMW 18 inch "M" Wheels ($1K), alignmentwas done, 4 new Goodyear tires (4/17), I purchased OEM BMW roofrack (new from Germany)($600). I purchased with intention of installing but have not yet installed 1 of only 5 originaldashboards left from BMW Germany. I am including it. Dash alone was $800. Car now has 155k miles. I use it at least weekly and it just an amazinglysolid, reliable car. Interior is in great condition, no rips or tears in seats, nice Captain chairs up front. Full size spare in back, I also purchased and am includingan owners manual for this series BMW.
I spent thousands on an already outstanding vehicle to make it A+, with intention of bringing it back to as new but now unexpectedly have baby on the way and must sell. I have spent far more on car than am asking so SERIOUS BIDDERS only please.Work done by local BMW shop. I have all writtenrecords and can send more pictures. Very reliable, great running car with sport suspension. This is a great wagon for someone who knows and appreciatethese cars. Buyer responsible for shipping.
