1984 BMW 5 Series 533i review from North America
"the ultimate driving machine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far very little. had to replace fuel sending unit, and just recently, had a major tune-up and valve adjust.
Need to replace radiator soon because of leaking
otherwise, an excellent car, and purchase.
General comments?
Sneaky Fast, and handles like a sports car for a four door sedan.
