1984 BMW 5 Series 528e review from North America
"A fun reliable car with power to spare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Changed the carrier bearing recently because of a burnout gone wrong.
Driver seat worn and rips holes in my pants.
General comments?
This BMW is the first car I bought with my own money, and I will never regret it.
I drive it like I stole it, and sometimes I think I try to break something on it, but can't seem to do it.
The sunroof still works, and so do all the power windows.
