Only had mine a few weeks but have done a few bits to make it a little more special.

Installed Aero kit and had the steering wheel refurbed.

Thanks!
I'm driving with KW StreetComfort, and it's easily the best daily-driven coilover what i have ever had! Softer than oem m-sport, but still in corners
Kidneys are BMW OEM Performance.

My Ride: 530xiT
Model Year: 2007
Default photos--new to me 530xiT, 6-spd manual

Literally picked up my new 2007 530xiT yesterday. Its not as if I needed another project, but I couldn't let it get away.

I bought it from Copart USA - The Source for Online Car Auctions - Home Page, a nationwide collection of insurance salvage yards that also auction off dealer trade-ins and cars given to charities, some for as little as $100. There are thousands of cars available, all makes, models and years. There are in-person auctions, followed by fast-paced online auctions of the same car so everyone gets a chance to bid whether on site or not. I'm not a dealer, so had to use a broker, but all is explained on the website. I have no financial interest in copart.

I'll post more photos as the project progresses.

I used these guys -http://royalsteeringwheels.com, was a bit unsure at first but saw a few reviews from other people who had used him and they were very happy, as am I. I love it, feels like i'm driving a new car, silly I know but it does.

£125 i think, thats with the added grips, they do a wheel exchange too so you pay a £50 deposit and get that back when they get your wheel.

Not sure how much international delivery would be as they are based just outside of London.
