My 520i

[robin]

Hi,

I'm from Belgium. My englisch is not that great so ...
Here are a few pictures of my car. I'm a student and I should buy a economic car... but I just can't have anything else but my e34 ( You have to know the fuel here is very expensive so a 520 is already expensive to drive)

I bought the car for only 1500 EURO ( about 1250 USD I think ) I've had it for 2 years now and it has never let me down.

I want to know what you all think of it. I'm amazed about how good all of your cars look over there, here in belgium it's hard to find a good one

I want to lower the car but what would it costs and what should I have?

btw: thanks to this board I've managed to solve most of the little problems i've had with the car myself so Thank you all !

Nice ride, what year is it? I like the wheels but the aftermarket side markers are a bit off.

Are you walonian or vlaams?

[CrimsonBrian]

Wow, looks great! Congratulations!

it's a 91

I know the side markers are 'a bit off ' but the previous owner had to do it.
He has a ... ( I don't know the english word ... ) knob to pull a caravan or what ever ... and in Belgium you have to get other side markers otherwise it's illegal. I'm looking for original ones.

I'm 'Vlaams' ;-) So I speak dutch ( not french )

other comments are welcome

Nice, you have the m50 engine. Welkom, ik was in noord brabant geboren, 5 mins van Belgie.

Welkom!

Dat maakt dat ik niet meer de enige Vlaming ben hier.
Waar studeer je? Ik ben er net zelf vanaf.
De mijne heeft een LPGtankje gekregen voor het over en weer rijden naar het werk.

Nice find! At that price it's really tough to find a decent car, let alone a decent 5er.
Can't help you on the lowering of your car though. I do know a cheap and experienced mechanic in Brasschaat who could maybe help you out.

[robin]

Thank you all for the comments.

You know I bought those wheels second hand (with new tires ) for 300 EURO
He needed the extra space in his garage :-)

@ DueyT: you say: tramlining must be crazy; What does tramlining meen ?


@ Morgenster: Hoi ! Ik had hier geen vlaming verwacht :-)
