We just picked up a 95 540i auto green with tan interior. It has 130k on it. So far we've had to put in a new radiator and heater core, no big thing since I went through it in the 535i not too long ago. Other than that the ride is solid. We were worried about the nikasil issue so we jacked up the front and looked for engine casting numbers. It has the alusil numbers so we inquired with the dealer for a history on the car. The block actually looked like it was just out of the crate, totally clean. We found out that the alusil block was installed less than 10k miles ago and was not covered by bmw, previous owner took care of the cost. We paid 5k for the e34 and we love it. It runs smooth and solid. I figured we were fortunate to find a steal.
