How's the water pump? I've seen a lot of people say that you should swap the water pump while you're doing the belts. There was even a thread recently that alleged that the new bearings and belts may have caused the older water pump to fail in one member's car.

And of course, as I've told you before, when you're fixing/maintaining the car, it is always good to consider some modding - especially if "modable" parts need replacing.

Obviously you did not go to a BMW dealer. Sounds like you got a very good deal.
