Hi Matt,
i bought mine about 7 years ago for AUS$5K and drove it for about 12 months as a daily drive car, I then bought a another BMW and the wife wanted the V8 so she drove it for another 2 years before I bought her a more suitable shopping trolley, at which time I put the 540i in the shed to store until now (because I have the time) to devote to it to do it up again. What I'm fighting with is wether to keep it or sell it when done. Mainly because I just love this car

I regret the day I sold my first one, this ones not as fine as the first- I had to wait 5 years to get another ,for lots of reasons, but once you have rebuilt this 540 you'll never find another as good. most owners ( not all ) selling are not enthusiasts and have not delivered the same attention and care to the upkeep. Usually selling due to rising maintenance costs cause they cant/don't do the work themselves which is why I believe you'll never get another with out having to do the work all over again. and if you love this one you'll definitely want another sooner or later; I promise! what colour and interior do you have?
