1991 Bmw M5 E34 on 2040-cars
Morriston, Florida, United States
Looking for an inexpensive way to get into an E34 M5? Here's your chance. It's not show-perfect, but it presents well overall. It's a blast to drive, and you could go for years without seeing another on the road. I've owned 2 of these, and those are the only 2 I have ever seen in person.
I've only owned this car for a few months - and planned to keep it for a long time, as evidenced by the amount of preventative maintenance detailed below. However, I am trying to purchase a business and need to free up some cash fairly quickly. This car was to be a long-term project for me, so I still haven't gotten around to some of the less-important items. I focused on mechanical reliability / durability items first, and so the ancillary systems and cosmetics were lower on the priority list. So, the details: S38 inline-6 cylinder engine in excellent running condition. Does not burn or leak any significant amount of oil (this means, there's no drips or visible leaking on the driveway, undercarriage is dry). As with any 20+ year old engine, I can't guarantee there's not some tiny area of seepage, but I've not seen anything of significance. I've noticed up to a 1/2 quart added between oil changes on average. Gearbox is tight and smooth - no grinding, no pop-outs, synchros work perfectly. IN the last 3 months, the following has been done: Valve adjustment Refinished camshaft cover and plenum with black wrinkle-finish, and new M-emblem. New seals, o-rings, and gaskets for entire induction system Vacuum system gone through, all vacuum lines/hoses replaced, new vacuum caps at each throttle body. Throttle bodies disassembled, cleaned, lubricated, and synchronized. New throttle cable and cruise control cable. New accelerator pedal bushings and spring. Updated camshaft chain tensioner (S50B32 version) Fresh lube in gearbox (ATF) and differential (castrol syntrax). New Bosch (OE BMW) plugs, cap, rotor (wires were less than a year old). Every hose in the cooling system has been replaced (not just the big ones, also the dozen or so related to heater plumbing, overflow, degas, etc. Most are OE BMW). New Behr (OE BMW) fan clutch (viscous fan) New Behr (OE BMW) thermostat and o-rings New Saleri water pump New Bosch (OE BMW) fuel pump New Bosch (OE BMW) ignition coil New Hella (OE BMW) auxiliary water pump New Bosch (OE BMW) heater valves Rebuilt Alternator UUC Evo3 short shifter and DSSR New leather knob with backlit ///M stripe pattern refinished leather seats with SEM Classic Coat (front seats have cracking but this refinishing made them presentable again). Will eventually need new leather. refinished door panels, used 3M Di-Noc ebony woodgrain vinyl over original wood grain (could be removed easily if desired). New thrust arms (Meyle HD) New Sigla (OEM) windshield and trims Window tint with lifetime warranty - Formula one tint, 30%. Fresh brake fluid / system bled Brake caliper slides cleaned Wiper arms refinished Wiper cowl cover refinished Inner door skins and drains cleaned and treated with rust-preventing grease. New hood lift struts New Bosch O2 sensor New air filter New interior cabin air filter New HIR headlamp bulbs Recently replaced guibo and fuel injectors, MAF sensor rebuilt. Door panels replaced with improved 1995 style, with gathered-leather inserts, and full leather wrapped/stitched door handles. Car has Racing Dynamics sway bars, SLS delete (Dinan stage 1 kit, I think). Dinan chip Throwing star wheels with good tires all around. Wheels have some scuffs/rash but are straight. Tires have at least 50% tread remaining. Brake pads have at least 60% remaining. Sunroof and all windows/locks work properly. Power seats, including heating, work properly. Problem areas: Headliner is worn, it's not sagging but eventually needs to be re-done Seat condition described above - cracks in leather, general wear all around. Rear parcel shelf needs re-covering. It's covered in black cloth instead of the original gray. A/C was working up until about a week ago. I believe there's a leak in the evaporator core, or the expansion valve, or an o-ring between them. The compressor was working great when the refrigerant leaked out via the evaporator housing. Paint is overall very presentable, but I think it was a medium-quality job, not show quality by any means. A few chips and things here and there but still shines well. NO RUST. Undercarriage is clean. Car has been in the Southeast US its entire life. Pioneer head unit with USB and ipod connection, illumination to match the BMW orange. JBL front component speakers. On Aug-20-14 at 08:10:44 PDT, seller added the following information: Update: I took a look at the Air Conditioning system today. There IS still refrigerant (R134) in there, My gauges read about 90psi, so perhaps my suspicion about the leak is wrong. I think the system will still need inspection, but at least at this point it's not a catastrophic failure from what I can tell. |

Lotus Esprit S1 gets wet and wild in 'Forza Horizon 4' James Bond trailer
Tue, Sep 18 2018It only makes sense. When the official trailer for Forza Horizon 4 ( FH4) first debuted at E3, details showed the game is set in Britain. Those who were ahead of the curve might have recognized this as a foreshadowing of sorts. Celebrating the launch of FH4's XBOX One and Windows 10 demo on Sept. 12, Playground Games announced that the next version of the beloved racing simulator will launch with an available Best of Bond pack that includes many of James Bond's storied rides. As expected, the list is heavy on the Aston Martin, but there are plenty of other goodies, too. Included in the 10-car pack are the 1964 Aston Martin DB5, a 1969 Aston Martin DBS, a 1986 Aston Martin V8, a 2008 Aston Martin DBS, a 2015 Aston Martin DB10, a 1974 AMC Hornet X Hatchback, a 1977 Lotus Esprit S1, a 1981 Citroen 2CV6, a 1999 BMW Z8, and a 2010 Jaguar C-X75. If you can name every movie that all of these vehicles are from, pat yourself on the back and grab a martini. View 15 Photos Microsoft is rewarding those who are all-in on FH4. The Best of Bond pack will come with the Ultimate Edition of the game that is allowed an early play date, starting Sept. 28. For those who haven't fully committed, the Best of Bond pack will be available as an add-on for purchase when the game launches globally on Oct. 2. The action-packed trailer shows many of the vehicles transforming or busting out tricks they're known for from the films, including the Lotus emerging from the sea. Although players will not be able to drive any vehicles under water (that we know of), several of the gadgets will make it into the game and will be viewable during Forzavista mode. The '64 DB5 has many of its features, such as the bumper rams and revolving license plate, while the Lotus will have an available body kit, fins and all. The Bond pack also comes with a few features irrelevant to the cars, including two Bond outfits and six "quick chat" phrases that can be used during multiplayer. The pack adds to an already impressive catalogue of vehicles that includes more than 450 different rides. Available now to pre-order, the FH4 Ultimate Edition is priced at $99.99, the Deluxe Edition is $79.99, while the base game is $59.99. For those who love Bond but don't own a gaming system, don't forget about the recently announced DB5 Lego kit.
2014 BMW 2 Series configurator drifts online
Wed, 15 Jan 2014Monday marked the official, live unveiling of the 2014 BMW 2 Series. Not a company to rest on its laurels, BMW has unveiled the online configurator for the replacement to the much-loved 1 Series. Potential customers can select from either the 228i or go all-out and get the M235i. We shouldn't have to explain which car we've been building all day.
As a recap, a base 228i starts at $32,100 not counting a $925 destination charge. It includes 240 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque and, when optioned with the six-speed manual rather than the eight-speed automatic, a perfect 50/50 weight distribution (the 8AT balances at 50.3 in front and 49.7 in back). The M235i, meanwhile, starts at $43,100 (although you can't actually buy one for that, because the configurator forces you into a $1,450 Dakota leather interior). It offers up significantly more grunt, with 320 hp and 320 lb-ft from its 3.0-liter, turbocharged straight six.
