    Default Anyone in South Africa wanting to buy a cheap E34?

    Selling my E34 525i. Has to go. Anyone in South Africa interested in this? Even open to parting it out?


    Thanks.

    Costing me way too much. . And a 17 year old with a 525i wanting to maintain it in South Africa is hard work and a lot, lot of money. Which I don't really hav. Along with petrol prices. It will be a very sad sight to see her go really.

    I knew it would come to this. How old is she though Rob? Almost 17? Go for a younger one, they are less abused and are more willing to do what you say rather than act according to how they feel at the time. If you go for a 17 yo or older, make sure she has never been abused

    She's 17 or so. Not getting another Beemer. They go through petrol like juice unfortantly. Going to get something small and light. Then maybe in a few years time a E34 540i.

    Well that is a big shame Rob,

    I know how you feel tho. Mine is just sitting in the shed with not enough time or money to fix her issues!! She'll get there one day, but for now... She has to wait patiently.

    All the best with the sale, and let us all know when you get that 540i!!!

    Gone but NEVER forgotten. :'(

    And then...
