Hi, I just bought a dark blue '94 730i (straight six) and thought I would introduce myself. Its not my first BMW, as I did have a 328i convertible at one stage, but its my first seven. The car is in fairly good shape externally, and looks great after a polish up, although it does have a few gremlins at the moment - i need to replace parts on both front and rear suspension. I started to replace the front shocks last weekend but got scuppered by three bolts that just would not budge! Anyway, internally it looks nice too, with fairly clean grey leather. Although its a base model in engine terms it is fairly well spec'ed, with PDC and nice wood trim. I suppose the one question I have at this stage is in relation to wheels - I need to buy new tyres and it seems almost as cheap to buy some new(secondhand) wheels with tyres. I've seen a nice pair from an e36, but these are different offset, and I was wondering if anyone has had success using spacers to make such wheels fit an e32? Anyway, that's it - i'll try to post some pics when I get round to it... Will
