    I am the owner. I want to clear up some confusion in the comment section as to why there are new tires on the car. Before I reached out to RJ, I was going to try and do the job myself. The tires that were on the car were completely flat and the car was sitting on the wheels. I put the car on jack stands, removed the wheels and had new tires installed. After that , I found WD Detailing and decided to let them work their magic! Great guys/very professional!

      OPENYD You're one lucky dude to own such a beautiful classic. Would love to see a video on the start up of this car, hear the sound of that 24valve straight six and see it being driven on the road. RJ did a fantastic job, super thorough, but then the foundation was good to start with being a well cared for un-abused example which looks to be fully loaded. The price of these cars is going through the roof, hope you start enjoying it again..

    The M5 recently exited the garage for the first time in years. New injectors were installed, some plugs were pulled and cleaned, and we fired her up. Purred like a kitten. I will try and make a video to share with everyone who was hoping to see her back on the road.

    How ironic. I also bought my e28 m5 in 1998, and still own. Like him, I was blown away the first time I saw one new in 1988. Instantly it became the car I had to have "one day". Bought mines at East Bay Bmw in Pleasanton Ca for 11k in 1998. Great job filming this special car!

  • @johnwalters878
    @johnwalters878 3 роки тому +5

    IMHO, the e28 was the last of the great BMWs. I drove the heck out of my 524td. Although not a popular one, it was rare and the diesel performed remarkably well and got 40 mpg. Sold it at 280k, and the last count before I lost track was 400k. All the materials are extremely durable and easy to clean. Never any surprises.

      They probably threw new tires (if you look those tire are BRAND NEW) on it before getting it detailed so they could roll it around... I'm betting the old tires wouldn't hold air, or at least it's a far more logical assumption than anything you said 🤣... This car has sat for 10+ years.... That's abandoned sorry bud.

    1988 e28 M5. The only year for import to the US. Import numbers were somewhere between 800 and 900 units. All were black exterior w/tan leather interiors. Except a few that had a black interior. Excellently balanced. It handled well on the track. And it was surprisingly quick for the day.

    Growing up my dad had a Ford Granada with tan vinyl seats. We lived on a farm and with the car not having a/c the windows were always down. Over the years the seats got really dirty and got to the point they were no longer tan. When I was 11 or 12 I decided to try to clean the seats and pretty much the only thing under the sink was good ole comet. With a bucket of water and comet I brought the seats back to looking new. I wouldn’t recommend using comet, but I knew nothing about how to clean seats, but it worked great.

    Hello from Westlake….I’d say it’s an 86 based on the 3rd brake light….those came out in late 85 as standard on all cars in the US. BTW, met someone who was a patient of mine a few weeks ago who knows you guys well. Said something big was about to happen. I asked if you were as genuine in person as you appear on video and she said “absolutely…and then some”. Weird how the conversation came up and how I found out she knew this UA-camr car detailer…..I showed her a video and said “you mean these guys?” We both had a good laugh. Glad to hear things are going well for you guys.
