[QUOTE="sleme, post: 75757, member: 157"] The e28 is of course cheaper but there are of course less aftermarket parts since it is older. However, on normal wear and tear parts, some shops still have old stock which they let go for cheap. I got an original windscreen for RM750, original center box for RM450 (just to give you an idea). You can also walk into auto bavaria and book using part numbers if you have the ETK CD. They have to order it for you. Couple months back i ordered the window guides and the dash light switch plastic bracket for RM50 each. Had to wait 3 weeks but it came from Germany... Engine wise, well quite easy. If you are getting, you can either opt for the small 6 2.0 or go big 6 i.e. 2.5 onwards.. My view, get the 2.5, ditch the engine and plonk a m30 3.5.... :D Weakness, there is the dreaded front end brake shimmy at 90km/h. This can be cured with proper modification on the stock bushes...other than that...nothing really. [/QUOTE]
