    I got my car about a year ago with 297,000ks for $8,500
    5sp manual 535, and its still going strong. Most of the problems i have had are electrical, the gauges and obc are still dead. I would jump on it man it looks clean and if i haddnt already got mine i wouldnt think twice about buying this.

    G'day decious,

    Great to see other aussie e34 nuts!

    I've been waiting some time to find a tidy e34 and this is the first manual I've come across. I had considered going the auto but I'm a driving driver if you get my drift. Not dissing anyone who drives an auto but I prefer the manual!

    Does anyone know the differance between the 535i and the 535is? anything visual??

    Thanks for the feedback so far guys and keep it coming!

    Ross

    Hi Ross, I think aud$7500 is a good price. The "is" comes with a manual trans, LSD, slightly lower diff ratio maybe?, rear spoiler, front spoiler with brake ducts - I think they call it the m-tech package, slightly lower springs - can't think of much else. Looks like this



    Rear carrier bushes - what do you mean by them, the rear sibframe bushes or the rear trailing arm bushes? And what dealer are you working at?
    The other members comments sum up everything well.

    Go for it! That's only 186411 miles for the USA guys, it's just getting broken in for an M30. Sounds like a nice overall package, those cars are pretty rare in OZ anyway, aren't they? Working at a dealer you have the inside track for parts and service anyway, so you're set.
