welcome. let's see the pictures.

when we were in the market to "upgrade" from my wife's 04 ES330, she started looking at a 2004 740iL. i ended up talking to a buddy that works at BMW as a service adviser, who warned me to stay away. he said the only way he would ever buy a bmw is if it was new with a warranty. he said repairs were expensive on the 7 series. i've had 3 different 3 series (2 of them M3's) and i love them, but hate them at the same time due to the repairs, lol.

my wife & i were discussing that when she is ready to "upgrade" from this, where does she go. i said the only option is another LS, lol.

I'll get some pictures up once the car is much cleaner. Crappy weather in the UK.

But yeah the bmw is a lovely car when right. Only way to get one is if the warranty is there otherwise it is just expensive to own. Anyone who wants to own one should know how problematic they are before hand so I'm not trying to put anyone off them. Just giving my experience with one. I have had many bmws including m3's too. The smaller cars aren't too bad. It's the bigger they get. They more they cost.

i always said, you have to pay to play........i didn't want to pay, that's why i got rid of mine, lol.
