Welcome! When cared for, these are some of the best trucks out there. Jealous of the third pedal!

Sounds like you got a survivor then. You have a lot of mileage so make sure that things like the cooling system and CCV are replaced. Either one of those can take the motor out so you need to make sure they are scheduled. Also, if the window regulators and clips haven't been done, you'll be doing them soon. It's best to keep a couple of the clips around since they're cheap.

Salty B,
You can add a bluetooth adapter at the CD player connection. I installed one. No DSP and Business CD installed on mine. The bluetooth adapter works with AUX. It's better than an FM Bluetooth cigarette lighter adapter. Answering a phone call is a hassle though. Without a mic, the phone picks up too much phone speaker noise. It's better to use the phone speaker options. Bluetooth music is crisp and full of sound for its age. Welcome to the board.

See this: https://youtu.be/b1odBu9tNmY Here's a before and after on my wife's old e53. https://youtube.com/shorts/m2bP9_k_lqE?feature=share https://youtube.com/shorts/cxfji4KWGMI?feature=share Sped up something like 50% but listen to the motor groaning on the before video.

I bought a new key+remote from BMW ($$$$) and now I can lock/unlock without the key. Left rear lock actuator makes a noise but does not unlock. Some kind of clip in there that broke? I'll pull the door card next week to have a look.

Gotta admit, this trans and clutch are VERY trucky. Totally unlike my F30. But I still wouldn't have it any other way.
