My Ride: 2005 BMW 525DA
Default

Hi. Recently got my first BMW and i love it It?s a 2005 525DA.
I live in the northern part of Norway(actually north of the arctic circle) so this is going to experience real winter conditions pretty soon. Just added 18" M5 wheels with Nokian RSI tyres. 20" BBS in summer (pics)

Wanted an M5, but prices in Noway are insane. Payed over $65.000 for this one (3 years old)

Looks like a great forum for E60 owners. Learned lots allready from you guys.

Hehe, what?s cool about it? Guess in some languages our names could mean a lot of things
Back in school we had a guy who?s last name was the Norwegian word for "Pimp"

Welcome!

Are you from Troms? ?

We have the same insane carprices in Denmark (actually even worse), so I know what your're feeling.

Is the car imported from Germany? If so, did you drive it all the way from Germany to the norhern part of Norway?
