Well that seems quite impressive! Is that your S-class in the background as well? Don't mean to sound rude, but any chance of a customer picture with the car as well?

How about a picture of the Owner's manual on the hood of your car?....to show us you really own it.

The car looks awesome , but i dont like tinted windows and black rims , a nice set of anthracite wheels would suit the car better

Very nice car I love the E39 and yes, it would be nice if you could take the time for the official custom shot (the owner manual either on the boot or the bonnet)

What rims are those? I love the chrome lip. They go with any black car. True sleeper

not a bad car dude, something needs to be done about those old front and rear lights though, the updated model of these should fit nicely, are they the ones your getting for it? or some aftermarket ones?
