Hi chaps. This is my first post.Im a resident of the UK but I've been searching the net for this very question and came across your forum.

Ive been offered a E34 530 touring with 70000miles on it for £1400 with leather and a/c etc. Its a really good price.Trouble is I'm a little nervous because of all the horror stories I've heard about the Nikasil problems.

I was hoping that somebody may have a "quick " way to identify one of these engines. Maybe a casting on the block or a number stamped some were.

Thanks for looking Clack
