I am posting this here as I feel my mates car needs to get the respect I believe it deserves and he's not the best on computers etc so I doubt it will ever make it past facebook if I don't do something.
This 540i6 is one of only around 70 or so RHD 540 v8 6 speed saloons ever made.
I came across it advertised on a UK "tramp" drift forum, or at least the ad was linked on there by someone, as a none runner for £500 (very cheap, the box is worth more) and pestered my mate, Ginge, to go and get it and turn his then 525 into something rumbly.
As it happens the car wasn't that bad really, a few dings, alarm ripped out and some others bits but it soon was fired up and the Avus 525 sport was ditched in favour of doing this up.
Now it's been through various stages to get to this point, lots of shit wheels and cut springs all the way through to carbon kevlar clutches and BC coilovers and some where in the middle of that it got hit up the ass by some douche on his phone at a roundabout.
However it got here it now has thousands of pounds worth of Lotus Carlton Green paint, 17x9.5j f and 17x11j r banded steels in custom bronze, full millpoint leather sport trim, bc coils, custom lsd and every nut / bush / gasket refreshed or renewed.
Hope some of you like it as much as we all do around here.
