Thanks Ian. I'll concede the extra HP to you mate, but with the torque an LE has I'm sure it is possible. I'll just show those pics to my wife now, to avoid a...
Have you posted on the M5 board - would be interesting to see if this is a common thing. Your '105k' M5 certainly doesn't seem to be as tight and solid as you...
I'm thinking its more related to that brake shudder - or jacking the car under the diff. Its not a lot of metal holding things together there.. _____ From:...
Is anyone bidding on item 300282476971? I was outbid overnight and before upping the bid, I thought I would check to make sure I'm not bidding against one of...
Hey Frank  Not sure if you've noticed at all but interest rates have fallen quite considerably!  Your car has now been on the market for 12 months or so...

Hi Ian, any idea where you are going to get an E34 towbar from ? I need one for #18 in the next few weeks. I haven't looked anywhere yet, I assume the BMW ones...
Andrew I had one fitted to the E34 535 a couple of years back - just rocked up to my local towbar place (Matador) - and it wasn't expensive. Everything BMW is...
Hi Guys, Re towbars, my LE doesn't have a provision in the lower skirt of the rear bar for the towbar to go through, so what goes on there if I want a towbar...
Hi Andrew, I'd start by contacting a few wreckers, I'd be amazed if PBM or BM Spares didn't have one. If no luck then Hayman Reese make one for about $600. ...
This is my concern too ! My old 535iS had a towbar and a real ugly hole in the skirt. Can't bear to see #18 with an ugly hole cut by some 18 year old. Is there...
Hi Garry, yes i will try the wreckers first, didn't think of that. Funny you should say No.2 will get better, hmmn I seem to have that organised already,...
My M5 had a tow bar, and there was a cover that fitted into the rear apron (refer attached). You might find a wrecker could provide the cover with the bar, or...
Hi Andrew, The 540i wreck Luke bought last week has an aftermarket towbar fitted through a hole that has been quite neatly cut, so it is possible. Maybe an...
Andrew - all E34 rear bumper covers have a template marked out on the inside. If you remove the cover (easy task) and clean the inside, you will find it. When...
Hi Andrew and Garry,The bar we have exits just under the Black strip, so I think the insert in the photo would only work for the genuine bar. Regards, Ian ... ...
My M5 has the cover the same as that in Garry’s photo – and has had a bar fitted by a PO. It is actually only missing the drawbar…. _____ From:...
I’ve still got the drawbar from my car if you want it From: BMW540iLE@yahoogroups.com [mailto:BMW540iLE@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Ian Gatenby Sent:...

Thanks Luke, Â I still haven't decided on selling #15 yet. As I mentioned I will leave it posted on carsguide; if someone's interested in it .. I'll tackle it...
Hi Ian, Happy New Year - sorry to hear about your latest adventures. Here's my "Big Bang" theory (or equation). M5 + New Rubber + P Plater = "Shit !!!, what...
Hi David, just checking these dates in my brand new 2009 diary, and it looks like you have nominated weekdays?? Cheers, Geoff. ________________________________...
Hi Luke, nice to hear you've got the bits you needed. After seeing the pictures of that car, I'm amazed that it would start, and that you could rescue the...
Hi Andrew, commiserations on your unhappy Christmas - but at least you got to keep your car :) One of my mates was lucky to have the clothes he was wearing...
Hi Frank, and a Happy New Year. I hope 2009 brings you some better luck. I can identify with the "expensive kids" scenario, makes our car hobbies seem like a...
Andrew et al, Â Likewise, that was my big hiccup too. My wife and I 'unofficially' separated 10 days ago. For the sake of the kids, I am still in the house,...
Well done Geoff - you pass the test. No-one else even noticed :) Actually, those dates I nominated were the end of Sep and Oct respectively. The tour could...
Not only that, we put it up on stands and ran through the gears.... Perfect shift for every gear! Although it has big K's it was well loved. The rear door...
Hey Guys I want this for my Avus Blue car. So if nobody has any objections I'm going to go for it. Ebay Item: 280300290879 (S6S 420G - 6 Speed gearbox) Cheers...
