Hi Raj...
Always nice to hear a familiar voice, hope you ok mate, i did advertise the stuff for a short while on Piston Heads but decided to kepp the bits and the car, till at least summer next year, Raj i think you should consider my Schnitzer's for your 5, they would look the nuts on a black 5, unless you have another plan up your sleeve.

Hi Iceman, Hopefully when a few more people find out about the thread and everyone knows a bit more about one another the chat will become a bit more "local".


So guys, I picked up my E60 only a few weeks ago. It was an ex-demo for Bowker BMW in Lancashire.
Anyone had any dealings with them?
Anyone source thier E60's from Sytner in Leicester?

Also thanks Mark for hooking up the LCI's, looking forward to getting them collected and on the car
Mine was an ex-demo from Leicester. Can't say too much to compliment them - they made an administrative c0ck up throughout...but the car is great and makes up for their short comings....

I live in Wellingborough but work in Leicester so it made sense to buy from there instead of Wollaston (Northampton), also, Sytner as they are huge they have access to loads of cars (all makes which they can supply from any dealership).

Mine is Silver LCI 525d M Sport Auto with Media, leather, sun protection glass and rear spoiler ++. I have the standard wheels and really don't like the RF's at all - they have gotta go!! ANyone know where you can get:

a) Mudflaps - I know some don't like them, but I've seen a Sport with them and it really works with the standard M wheels - loads of grounding effect and helps to fill out the rear arches a bit. Checked eBay but nothing...
b) Cheap Space saver kit

Anyway - a good idea this!!!

PS - like most no doubt I go onto BMWLANDUK.co.uk and forum.bmw5 (http://forum.bmw5.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=12) which needs more active E60 members. Not wishing to take anyone away from here, but like many I go on several forums and add to each actively...

Do you get much grief from the police with those plates, or do you just use them as showplates?

P.S. Great car
