I'll answer for him: BMW seats definitely fit.

The BMW ones for new sporogs are fine if you're a sadist but I just stuck some generic thing in; for slightly older offspring, there is a BMW item which is fine.

Whilst it's not especially roomy there's no danger of DVT, despite whispers to the contrary.

Unleashed the thing this Sunday, 4 up and reminded myself what an awesome missul it really is, entirely out of synch with the immediate zeitgeist.

Beautiful but 'only' 500BHP and 0-60 in 'just' 4.7 in a car weighing almost as much as Jupiter?

Dealers, they know nothing. rolleyes

Just look up accessories for the 6 Series in the Owners' area on the BMW website. (don't look up the M6, as the only accessories it will show are communications ones, including trying to sell you Garmin nav on a car that already has nav)

I'll have a shuftie and get back to 'ee on the morrow, Von Dubenheim.

In the meantime, whilst Bertie Mc B7 is hugely appealing I can't help thinking an 03-04 760i(L) with a small incident involving DMS would be a more cunning committment to similarly profligate but even more discreet uberwaftmeistery?

There's something clinically arousing per se about the mere notion of Vs and 12s together, conspiring cylindrically around the chamber of six thousand, cavorting, capacitorial cubics.

Thanks :-)

If I went for a 7 then it would be a 760iL or similar with LPG... seriously wouldn't think to increase it's performance in any huge way.

The only way to do performacne luxo-barge is a BiTurbo AMG S Class :-)

Guessing I shouldn't really be saying that here though...

Dubbs, you might be surprised: once the Munchenkreig is a-rolling - and assuming the limiter is away windurfing with Gregory IXth orf Lanzarote - the real world momentum of these things is decidedly large of league.

A gently reworked 760i(L) will roll sedately past 180 in a similar fashion to the B7 but with an impeccably judged balance between helm tautness and supreme comfort.

Nobody happening across a debadged 760 would have a clue what 'ad 'it 'em - until it was too late.

A real, silent assassin.

(Yes, a twice blown S600 - or S65 - would be sublime, of course but these tend to be pricier and tbh, the build, material grade, unt fit n finish of an E65, well... wink)

For the sake of 6 or 7 bags I'd take this one straight out of the dealer network!
