Honeymoon with a broken V12 BMW that's been off the road for 7 years. Sounds perfect, right? Well, it is! I found this time capsule, a totally original 1991 E31 850i with the rare 6-speed manual transmission in a garage in Phoenix, Arizona. The plan is to revive right there on the spot and drive it to California.

We love supporting Sreten and his crazy BMW projects because its the most relatable content on KZfaq to date. Sreten is us. We are Sreten. In a world overflowing with horrible content creators with their hands always out begging for free parts for brand new cars we have a humble and talented guy who lives and breathes BMWs (we don't penalize him for the Maserati) and has the same passion as our own BimmerWorld employees and its REALLY refreshing to see. We are looking forward to helping out all his fans either get their BMW on the road or keeping it on the road or getting it on track! Let us know how we can help! And as always - THANK YOU SRETEN for letting us help. Can't wait to see you back in the US. It better be an East Coast trip!!!

Thank you again for getting my father's car running again. Lots of memories in it for my father and stealing it when he was out of the states when I was younger for me. Cannot tell you how happy I am to see him so thrilled that it's running again. It's not every day I get to see him this emotional, this car was his baby from the time I was 8 years old. Thank you again from the bottom of my whole families hearts.

You must have the best wife, because you dated her for several year's, and then she married you knowing that you have a slight car addiction lol. The part about her reading while you drive has always cracked me up, especially when you said i believe it was the Alpina that passed the reading test. Tthe stuff you did on the honey moon is great to, at least you married a woman who understands your passion for fixing these car's. You have saved many that would have ended up as parts car's, and the n saved a few that would have been destroyed by an owner who would have just driven them to their death, or the salt would have gotten them. Thanks for all the great content, and all the long hour's of working on the car's, and then all the time involved in editing and getting the video's for us to enjoy. You have the best humor, and whenever you get hurt or surprised, the way your voice changes to a high pitch cracks me up. I struggle daily to keep moving and to be as active as i can, because i do not want to be in a wheelchair, which is why i work on car's when i can. I have progressive MS with muscle wasting, and old injuries from a bad work accident that leave me in some tough pain. I just came in from doing some work on my 1954 m38a1 jeep willys, and every time i do anything the pain before and after is beyond my being able to think straight half the time. My neurologist told me that if i didn't keep trying to move and build back up my muscles, I'd be looking at the wheelchair. I was happy to see a new video from you, because it helps get my head straight through this pain, and when i laugh, it just helps. So thanks Streten, you help people in ways you don't know. G-d bless you, the wife, and that dang cute mutsy.

I miss my Mauritius blue 850i -92 (Manual) with white seats... 🥲 Bought the car in Eslöv (Sweden) 2000 and sold it 2007 for a fraction of the buying price. 2006 i drove with my old mother in the back seat from Stockholm to Skåne on E4 in ~3,5 hours 550km... Perfect marching speed for this highway train! She didnt even notice that i was way, way over the speed limit for that road until we got home in such short time and got angry with me for driving that fast...😀 Sold the car for two reasons... Sometimes the engine only run on 11 cylinders (didnt find the fault) and i could not fit a child trolley in the boot... Loved this car so much! 🥰

I live in Phoenix and have my personal little fleet of rust free BMW’s and Mercedes. There’s a robust BMW community in the Phoenix area with several Indy BMW shops. To see the ease of this repair Doug could have had this car up and running with local support and been enjoying this E31 all these years. Definitely brave to take this car back to California. I-10 is a long, much of it desolate 5-6 hour drive through a lot of desert.

Yeeesssss! Running in instructions on the windscreen, I miss those from my E36 M3. Love the MK Motorsports rims on the red E31 look great, had a set of those on an E36 back in the day too.

My E34 has a host of issues and was having a bad day when this came up... therapeutic 1 hour of awesomeness. Now I'll get my car done and dusted

This is a special build because you took time off your honeymoon (thank you to your wife for always letting you do what you love) to respond to Doug. You passionately restored a classic BMW in the man's garage and you gave him one last ride. Thank you for sharing these moments.

I just looked up the toolkit as my old Craftsman socket set I bought 30 years ago needs to be updated. I'm looking at the sizes of sockets included and notice no SAE sockets and I realize why. hahaha! That certainly is a nice kit!

It's a timeless classic. A proper beautiful and astonishing BMW. It's not some fake crossover FWD 3cyl shit.

like a classic concert, in order, with system and a program. Or like a jazz session. All the instruments / tools are in their place and working their part. A pleasure as always. learned a lot through your vids and even if i dont have my own shop, doing a lot by myself on my own, working in hobby shops. i really started to like it. thanks a lot appriciate it as always. Thanks my friend, and a honour to see you rejuvenate the cars from my M town back to life, pure love to see.
