It's the one thing putting my partner off. She does a 400 mile round trip once a week along with normal car duties. Had the 323 engine in an E36 Touring. On board computer could be persuaded to sit around 30mpg in a normal town run, on a long stretch, I’d have thought a bit better than that and possibly 35ish? I had an E39 540 that if 70mph was adhered to could do 28mpg on a motorway run. I usually got about 21, make of that what you will paulplom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I saw it on Facebook though and was tempted. Big money round there so I bet it's been well maintained.

paulplom Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 The interior and engine are lovely. Everything works. The body work lets it down badly. The wing where the bumper trim is missing is quite badly scraped. There are various rust spots and scratches dotted about.

Base ac, no steering wheel buttons, no bum warmers, no trip compy and cloth. Impressive. Show me an e39 that isn’t showing a few rust spots nowadays though.

Schaefft Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 It does get a lot basier than this in an E39. Crank windows in the back, no AC at all, hubcaps, manual gearbox, no fog lights.

If it was mint as the pictures in the ad kind of shown I would have snapped it up. It looked lovely in the pics. Similar to the 528i I went to view a few years ago in a minty area of Southend, one owner and local plates etc... It was really tatty in the flesh. I wouldn't mind another one of these if I ever needed a 2nd car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asimo Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I think Farinas look grand on Rostyles. (Originals wheels included so don't be put off if you disagree.) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/wolsley-6-110/133160459497?hash=item1f00fb5ce9:g:FyQAAOSwxq5dRzRN I think that the real reason the 4litre R bombed was that they ruined the Farina's looks, nothing to do with the cost or the RR engine. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VANDEN-PLAS-PRINCESS-4-LITRE-R/183940314094?_trkparms=aid%3D1110001%26algo%3DSPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D40732%26meid%3D92c323a1ad234199aa84bab5495bf2ec%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D323904411322%26itm%3D183940314094%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 anonymous user, 155V6, 500tops and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
