Won best e24 for 2014, Delighted. your turn next year Don

Yes the expression of the young girls face was priceless, she spent the day reading a book in her Dad's e28 M535, ...probably a little bored. Then suddenly she won the freshly restored 2002 touring out of the blue, 17 years old and just got her licence. Perfect Day. Hi Don, I know your car is a winn...

Use realoem for part numbers.

Best of Luck.

Thanks for the link to tonybmw olympia57. His work is truly awe inspiring, even to the untrained eye. I remember getting the call from the body shop after they removed my e24 wings ..."You better come over and have a look at this" I hope to see you at the classic BMW open day this summer o...

Can it get any better?

I was just about to fire up the big scanner for our fellow Bigcoupers.
Great scans, thanks Ron. I Hope you didn't have to cut the spine of your copy to get the full page! I think this magazine is available on a digital/ipad edition too. But you can beat having the "old school" hardcopy.

They test all of the cars that created the desirable lineage of ultimate driving machines that continues to this day. First-generation greats include the M1 supercar, nimble M535i, family fun M5, continent crushing M635CSi and the ever-roguish M3 Evo II.

I had the same problem with a re-manufactured IS board. I couldn't get it to work, Vendor said my e24 must be a from a different year from what I originally stated? So I bought a second hand set of clocks in the UK, same year of manufacture, worked fine. I sent the IS board back, eventually after nu...

I replaced mine with the OEM decals, they are good quality, very aggressive adhesive. Matt black, and cut to shape.

Alas no picture of the important bit on a M6, the engine bay.

If it's 1 of only 101 RHD Highline’s produced, how do you find out where
you car is on the number sequence?

ie car 45 of 101 etc.

Thanks in advance.

The off the road notification which rolls in at the end month will probably act like a catalyst for jettisoning big engine sub-30 year old cars .... back to the UK or worst still, local scrap/ebay merchants. We need a flat fee (youngtimer tax rate) 300 euro for the year, limited mileage/classic insu...

from the "Big Event in Athlone", Ireland. Big turn out from local Irish & Polish BMW fans.

Safari blank too!

1 step forward, two back. I forgot to mention that whilst I was admiring the new amber glow off my obc, I noticed the display on my blaupunkt Melbourne had just gone dark ...as homer says "doh"

just typical, new bulb soldered in now, back working again. Phew!

It only dripped slightly when the tanks was full. These cars don't stay full for long :lol: No fumes, and as I said the breather outlets could literally break off in my hand. The main body of the tank was fine, slight surface rust on the seams, the other area which is well documented, it's the weld ...

Too true Brucey, The integrity of the tank was fine, inside was very clean, but the three breather tubes wobbled to the touch. It is only in recent winters in Ireland that the road salting has gone up a notch. She is in hibernation during that ;-) Have you seen any "modern" Mercedes-Benz W...

I finally got around to replacing the fuel tank. I witnessed the tell tale signs; fuel dripping from full fuel tank . I bought a new tank from euro parts. Alas it was silver, so i got it blasted, zinc coated and powder coated satin black. I also gave it some por-15 (belt & braces). I was shocked...

Just replaced the OBC back light. Very impressed. Handy enough for a RHD E24. Just remove the headunit. loosen screw, pull white housing out containing light bar (long nose pliers) replace and reverse. I recommend euro-electric . Got it here, no affiliation http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-e23-e24-e28-e3...

earlier type wings, no cut out for repeaters. Love to buy them anyway and just hang them on a wall. It's art baby, expensive art.
