    E28 524td seen today

    524td - 2.4 L M21 turbodiesel I6

    Guy was at Auto Zone buying wash/cleaning supplies. Absolutely the cleanest E28 I have ever seen. One owner, garage kept with 60k on it. Dumb me forgot to snap a pic, I had never seen a diesel E28 in person. Anybody on here ever had/driven one?

          Oh I know, the modern diesels are a whole different story. Particularily the 335d and new X5 xDrive35d. Plenty of fun!

                One in the junkyard. Slow, smelly, but still kinda a shame to see one there in such good shape

                            There is a guy from the local forum that has an 24d with an td engine + Gt20 52, turbo from audi a6 v6 tdi, and some other shit and it goes pretty well.

                            He is now selling engine and stuff to swap to an 330d e46 engine

                            Mind you that in the vid it has an 220 km/h speedo, not 240
