Thanks to Woo for bringing this thread up again!

Yep oldskllo - love 'em. I have had BMs for over 25 years now. Current one is a 1996 540i LE - it was my avatar for a while. Chipped to 250 kilowatts, 4.0 liter V8 M60 motor, 6-speed manual. M5 suspension, wheels and brakes. Very fast with the 2 x 3" one-muffler pipes. Headers are standard. :)  There is a club here in Australia for LE owners - wanna link? I also do business in Malaysia, so I joined the Malaysian BMW forum too. Could probably remember a link if I look for it...

Just lemme know.

Others I have had (no longer have) include a 1973 2002 tii, a 323i, an old 528i, E34 520i, E34 530i, and a 5-speed E34 M5 3.8. The 540i LE is the pick of the bunch, though - it just does everything and comes back for more. One day - I will probably turn it into a competition car, but only when it reaches the end of its useful life as everyday transport. All of my cars get some form of "individualisation" - but I love the look of the dark tint out back and the lighter tint on the front windows on your 3 series. Looks like you put a lot of effort into it!

Yes sir - looking good. I didn't realise that the thread was so old - do you still have it? That is a heck of a garage, by the way!!

Cheers - IanM
