Pimp your E39

I really need to clean it properly, I cannot wait until summer.

Olly, get that brake dust cleaned of quick or it will cling, also try changing pads to non oem ones as they are just too dusty.

Am I wrong to prefer the e39 over the new 5 series shape?

That and the e46 coupes do it for me!

How about a pretend BMW/Rover!!

Eat this, BMW fanboys...

You know it makes sense. Diesel love \o/.

hence why i got photos at the time!

E60 is an option, as is various Posche's as someones mentioned.

I am still not 100% on changing as the car is still great, i just think its getting a little dated and a change is always nice.

i have already got a couple of back up offers in case the first potnential sale falls through!

Looks much better with normal number plates, black plates look awful on modern cars.

Dangerous · 6 Mar 2007 at 08:56

Make sure its a V8

The engine above is not the stock e30 one (has 6 cylinders for a start!).

The original e30 M3 came with a N/A 4 cylinder, 2 litre (iirc) unit pushing 200bhp. So 0-60 in 7.5, 140mph top speed. Not blisteringly quick by todays standards, but still meant to be a fantastic drive.

Can't you start a 'Tatty old BMW' thread for the silly E30's?
