Seems about right price wise. What a lot of car for that money, you may be able to knock him down a few quid. Get the car checked, I'd even go as far as to suggest an AA/RAC inspection, although lovely motors, they can have expensive issues. If I was going for a 7 series, I'd rather stick to the straight six engined motors, but thats just a personal issue as I'm more familiar with them. ------------- Best Wishes Nigel |

totally agree with Nigel, go for the latest/best 735i 6 cyl you can find. what regd were the final 6 cyl 735's? excellent power & good mpg too. V8's are gas guzzlers. Andy D4 gets 16mpg from his E39 4.4 V8 ------------- Philip '86 E23 735iA SE - Polaris - The Silver Surfer '85 E23 735iA SE - Cosmos Blue - VJ '86 E28 528iA SE - Dia Black - Helga '86 E23 728iA SE - Polaris - The CHAV mobile |

If you want a very basic check on car details, you can sign on the RAC "my RAC" site and run a check on the reg, will confirm car age, mileage, number of prior owners, enough to tell if major porkies about. ------------- IanT E28 528, E23 735
