Reliable traveling companion bringing me and my girlfriend to Malaysia up in the mountain almost 7000 feet above sea level at 30 time within a year with a distance from Singapore to Malaysia about 480 KM one way.
I was thinking to buy the 1988-1990 BMW 5.20i E34 Model with Auto gear, but was told not by many mechanic not to buy as it is a problem car especially the auto gear box. Anyone can tell me if it is a good car to buy as I not really sure. In Singapore the car mechanic here only prefer the Japanese car maker or if not
the Benz which they consider a better car builder, but I am not convinced as my E30 3.16 is running super.
Anyone can comment on that.
