[QUOTE="insomniac, post: 630309, member: 20389"] If the road tax will dry your wallet, some of the maintenance bit (when it comes) may just make you kick the bucket. The 528i isn't the cheapest of things to maintain but it does feel damn good to drive. Certain items cost a bomb new compared to most JDM's but it may be more worth while to buy new replacements. It's all a matter of whether you want less running issues and whether the wallet is willing. When i got mine, after about 5 months, gearbox gave way and cost me RM7k to get it reconditioned. You could also get one from the chop shops for about RM4.5k. Not to frighten you or anything just want you to enjoy your UDM ownership. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
