Did you upgrade the Transmission software by yourself or the dealer? Did you use the V32 SSS software to update the transmission?

Cheers

james1, no problem. For $15-$16K it is a bargain and a hell of a lot of car:)

West, I believe the software upgrade was done by NorthernBM and am not sure about the software used, but can probably get the info if you want it.

Did the exact same thing, flew down to Melbourne, picked up a car and drove it back to Sydney. Helps to know someone who can do blue slips, but it was definitely worth it either way

Exact same car I bought as well! No regrets.

So your loving the E38 7 series Matt? They are a great machine and as enjoyable as GTR, just in a different way:)

Haha yeah very different machine... but yeah it's like the same budget was spent on engineering both cars, but in completely different ways :) The thing is sooo relaxing to drive to work in and really does have plenty of go regardless of its heft. The VANOS on the later '99+ models definitely helps. Due to the great soundproofing (incl double glazed as per your 740) you appreciate the stereo that much better too.

At first the blokes at work couldn't believe I could afford it, then they couldn't believe how little I paid for it (and I paid more than you're selling yours for Jamie), it really does look like a much more expensive car than what it is; which is not why I bought it, I've just always loved the E38 shape, but it has dated very well, much better than I think the E65/66 has and will in future.

what needs to be done anyway,

just a rta inspection here to ensure the car is road worthy?

yeh flying down wont be an issue.

I believe that is all that is needed for rgei in another state. I am open to selling the car as is or with a Roadworthy for Vic buyers. Same goes for interstate buyers.

Thanks Matt. Yeh I wanted a black as well but there are hardly any of these for sale, or should I say worth buying for sale. Glad I ended up with the Oxford Green though as its set off real nice with the dark tint and wheels. I got 9.4L/100Km to Sydney which I thought was awesome and around city I get about 13-14.5 last time I checked it.

This car has had the software updated to the transmission and in sports mode, really goes hard. In sport mode as well, has some good rumble with the new quad exhausts:)

GL with the search!

killer cars i have the 750il and its fantastic, its just a daily but super plush... pretty decent power too around 205rwkw.

GL with the sale.

    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
