    Default E34 540 6 speed wagon anyone ?

    I must be missing my old car. Been looking on Pistonheads and saw this for sale and started thinking, if I could just get together a few hundred pounds I could.....

    I saw this one as well! I can't help thinking this is too good to be true especially with that mileage?!! Unless the guy doesn't know what he's selling but it sounds like he does, its got to be worth at least 1k more than that, there have been 3 540i touring autos on ebay with similar mileage selling for around £2500 (which admittedly is on the high side - e34s must be in demand this time of year!!).
    I looked for ages for one of these, I only found one but the body was shot so I settled for an auto - now I'm itching for a conversion.

    Must.. resist.. another.. one!

    Argh, the temptation to snap that one up too, I've got spare parking space now that I've just sold my TDs tourer!

    Damn, I'll be trying to talk myself into that one all evening now

    I think one 540i/6 is plenty enough though

    Maybe see if he will part ex on a saloon 540/6 ? I was sooo tempted.Had it not been for me enjoying 40 mpg at the mo, I had a vision of me back with V8 power. How good would this car be for a LeMans visit - sleep in the back and then head to the Ring for a weekend.
    540/6 saloon is great. 540/6 wagon is better.

    Even better, here is conversion in the states. Too bad it's on the wrong coast.

    You'd think one would post more pics and a little more description when trying to sell a car...
