Owning an old beemer is character building, but they are so much fun to drive when they are going!

6:32 Those front seats are STARVING for some leather conditioner. Would need at least 3 goes over to get them nice and supple. Still a very nice E34

rare to find someone givin a bit love to an old 530i, the m30b30 was in the shadows of the greater b35 his whole life , now after so much time, its finally a rare thingy, worthy to retaurate and hold. // have the same model/engine from 1988, greetings from Germany

You mentioned us Honda fans being disappointed. Yes i loved your Hondas but you always can bring something back. Id like to see some honda comparisons like you used to do with your Accords. Maybe compare your bmws to a modified Honda similar to your old ones. That'll be the best of both worlds. Your older videos and your new ones kinda put together

Should be an interesting project. It’ll get under you skin, like fungus. Had my e34 touring almost 15 years now. Wish I hadn’t taken it off the road to fix it up, it’s a mongrel to get stuff sorted again after a year not running.
