Re: High mileage? How many do you have?

209,000, recent Inspection II - running like new!

248,000kms

248,000kms on my 1990 M5 - no major issues with box or engine.

Re: High mileage? How many do you have?

Following that path... what would be the right price for 113k miles silver/gray, no accidents, no body damage, no track time, with brand new SO3's on polished wheels ( throwing stars), SS brake lines, Short shifter, OEM+Dinan+D'Silva chips,new rear shocks with self-leveling, replaced control arms, chain tensioner, oil and water pumps, cam sprockets, guibo.... engine, clutch and transmission are flawless.?????????

Re: 133k

Try using thicker oil. I use hyperlube racing formula with 5w50 castrol in every car I have and they all recieved it very well.

Oh man!!!

I sold my Leisle. :( Shortly after you left the military rehabitated the airfield for some kind of training area. Then the hurricanes came and all the not so often used airfields became depots for trees and other debris. Saufley Field has become a sea of trailers. I'll be shipping out soon to Sig, maybe I'll see you there. Take care of your M, what ever you do DO NOT sell that car. You'll regret it every day. Just like me.

Re: 133k

Engine runs like new...but tranny has a loud main bearing.

I do have to add 1 qt of oil ususally between 2000 and 2500 miles (500-1000 miles before I change it). It burned this much oil when I bought it with 80k on the clock...I suspect with all those valves these cars burned some oil wit zero miles on the clock. I have had similar experiences with every DOHC car I have owned BMW or not.

Re: 142,xxx miles and she still pulls like a train

Hey Steve. It's nice to see that you still are keeping that M so well kept. Are you still in P-Cola?

Re: 265,000 E34 525i Sport! Reg M5 GKR

Anyone know any history on this car?

Re: High mileage? How many do you have?

Hope you dont mind me posting this here. I have a E34 525i Sport which has the same styling and suspension as the M5. I dont know much of its history but it has 265,000 on the clock, I have had the headgasket done recently. Unusually it is in a rare "Daytona Violet metallic" paint.

You made a good choice--thanks for the email

Re: High mileage? How many do you have?

Would a 1991 E34 M5 mint condition, no wrecks, 130k, 5 speed, all original, black on gray, and regularly serviced with records be priced fairly good at $13,500 ? Am looking at one and was curious what I should offer.

Re: 70,078 miles, 94 3.8 euro

44K, 95 3.8 euro M5 with badge no.50 of 50

192,000 before selling 9 mos ago.

Admittedly, I sold her for fear of need of major rebuild. Engine and powertrain were still strong, never rebuilt.
