Thanks! It is a great machine and has all the luxury in the world with some nice power and V8 grunt with new quad exhausts.

Hit me up with trades people. Looking for a super clean R32 GTR or neat R33 GTR. Im also open to some other options, so fire them at me.

This 740iL is an awesome car, great V8 with ALL the luxury options.

Yeh:( My sitiuation has changed and now have a daily run around. Want something a little more sporty for the weekends.

And in before "You are hopeless mate"- I KNOW!!

Looks nice Jamie.

I've been looking into the '99-'01 E38s recently and would love a neat 740iL, would be after black or silver though.

Yours looks like it's been well looked after though, from the pics.

With the VANOS 4.4 these have some go too; 0-100 is in the low 7 secs from memory. What L/100km do you get in average city driving?

Thanks Matt. Yeh I wanted a black as well but there are hardly any of these for sale, or should I say worth buying for sale. Glad I ended up with the Oxford Green though as its set off real nice with the dark tint and wheels. I got 9.4L/100Km to Sydney which I thought was awesome and around city I get about 13-14.5 last time I checked it.

This car has had the software updated to the transmission and in sports mode, really goes hard. In sport mode as well, has some good rumble with the new quad exhausts:)

GL with the search!

Oxfordgrün is, I honestly agree, a really nice colour. Better, IMO, than the Aspen silver which usually comes with the purple leather :) or Kalahari beige etc.

How many did you look at before settling on this one? What were the usual problems you encountered?

13-14.5 is not bad at all; better than I was expecting. Our E39 530i does about 10-11 L/100 in town.

I looked at about 6 legit ones and communicated with a seller in Sydney. They were mostly avg at best with high KMS, a lot of little things not working. Seeing they have sooooo many options, it was easy for 3-6 small options not be working, like rear blind etc. These can add up to ALOT of money but I got real lucky with this one as it has good service receipts and only 1 small thing need fixing which is common on all Beemers, the pixel in the dash.

I noticed yours has had a new radiator and cooling system components; a lot of piece of mind right there as this was also a common maintenance item for the BMWs of this era - where the radiator neck joins the top hose, fan clutch etc.

Yeh has the main things such as cooling system and valley pan done already. This car is ready to enjoy:)

Looks like I could be staying in the BMW family,possibly trading with a neat M3 but any last GTRs interested in a swap hit me up ASAP!

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
