The E53 is based on the E38 , using versions of the same electronics adapted for 4 wheel drive .
Subframes are an upgraded version of the E38 . The E39 is not up to the job . The E39 V8`s share some E38 parts . The first car BMW built was an Austin 7 under licence . BMW have used British ideas ever since . BMW V8 engines are based on the Rover V8 engine which itself is based on a Buick all alloy engine . A British engineer spotted the Buick alloy V8 at a place he was visiting and liked it so much he bought the design rights for it . American drivers originally thought the alloy engine would not be strong or durable and so it was abandoned by Buick . I suspect the BMW inline 6 is based on the Austin Healy engine .
