528es are still very capable daily drivers for a 25-30 yr old car The whole deal is to keep the things maintained. The e 28 is a very easy car to work on . There are many things you can do yourself. Such as cleaning up the fuse box connections and replacing the fuses . Get a Bentley manual and read it .Post mechanical questions in the tech section . Read the tech FAQs .E 28s have a lot of easily solved gremlins. A little effort on your part using the resources available here will greatly enhance your 528 e ownership experience

I keep mine on the stock 14" wheels. But I am a cheap old fart . Most people have gone to bigger wheels with low profile tires because they are in style. Welcome.

You guys have done gone and made her R-U-N-N-O-F-T with all your nice little comments and compliments.
I bet she only wanted to be treated like one of the guys.

He can smell fear...

As for BossLadys' absence, since oldskool refrained from some tempting dialogue with her, I'd guess she doesn't have our particular brand of daily forum addiction...
