    Default 530iT for sale. Nikasil. Worth looking at?

    Mileage is right. Not sure why the conversion wasn't done. Looks sweet.

    If you're only 75 miles from it, go and take a look at it. It's about $266 for a complete compression leakdown test from the stealer. Make sure they give you every page of the printouts.

    You could have a gem. Did you see the other white one with the tan interior?

    That one looks and sounds like a winner. Seller already reduced price 2k...offer him $9500 for that one.

    good luck.

    make sure that they do a actual leak down test and not that ******** modic computerized test for your money, the modic can be fooled by a bad running condition and give a false reading

    Or you can pretend you know nothing about the issue and drive it home.

    Question for you guys with Touring models:

    Is a Touring merely a wagon body on an E34 chassis? Everything other than those body components unique to the Touring are the same as what's on a sedan?
    I think I may have convinced the wife that a wagon would be her ideal vehicle.

    The touring has the 7 series auto leveling rear suspension found on 540's too, but I don't think comes on 525 or 535 models.

    It's an awesome rig for my needs.
