BMW E28 520 with 2.5 engine. Maroon. Yups that’s my car. My uncle gave it to me.
Gone through few accidents (3 real accident: 1 at Perlis, 2 at KL). I hit another car twice, someone hit me from behind once. Other than that scratches are causes by my mistakes.
Mechanical break down so far… Quite a few. First the distributor is not working. Got non-experience mechanics and he broke the distributor altogether. Then starter motor malfunction. Got it replaced. Then radiator is leaked. Got it patch and repaint. Then the absorber. first get it repaired but not working so replaced it. Then last week just replaced the water pump. Well… Too long to list here.
Electrical break down. Battery! Already change it twice by me. It last for 2 years maybe. Some wiring at throttle body. Got it rewired. Not my wiper is kinda on and off. But it always choose to off when it’s raining. Really make me angry.
So to summarise it BMW E28 is nice. Just get an experience mechanics to maintain it, then you’ll be happy. I like my E28.
