I now have a LeMans blue 4.8is in my garage
Yesterday night, as usual, I scanned the adds on internet. Then I saw that new add; a very low mileage 2005 4.8is (76000km). All original and in good shape from the pictures.
I called the BMW dealer where it was serviced to check the mileage they had on file, and it matched.
So, this morning I went there to see it, and I was pleasantly surprised by the good shape of the truck. Everything works, the engine bay is so clean, no rust nor oxydation on aluminum tubes. I think the PO didn't use it very much during winter. I'm almost guilty to drive it this winter in salt, rocks and slush...
Well, its not a collector car, so I guess I will use it and enjoy the ride.
Oh, I almost forgot, that V8 sound is so... ummm, sexy, I think it will make me burn some extra gas in the first months. Can't wait to remove that resonator!
Here are some pictures from their add:
