Hope this works. John B.

Thank you. Very simple when you have directions that are in english.
Back in business and now I'm looking forward to driving the beast on about a 600 mile round trip over the next few days.
Tell me about your car. How long have you had it? What kind of maintenance experience have you had and have you made any modifications/upgrades? There cannot be too many other 95 M5's in the US. Wonder how many.
Best Regards, John Z.

I guess I pitied your long road trip without tunes, so I responded before I had even introduced myself to the Board! I still don't have the obligatory pictures in presentable format, so that will have to wait a bit longer. But briefly, my 95 is Fjord Grey Metallic with antracite cloth/Amaretto interior, and 73k km. I was looking for something unmodified and now that I have one, plan to keep it essentially stock. I have owned it for 18 months but only actually had it for 10 months -- the Registered Importer who took care of the EPA/DOT compliance work had it for the other 10 months. As you can imagine, the wait was excruciating. But well worth it now that I have the car because, as we all know, they are truly amazing automobiles, even compared to a 95 540i which I also have.
In terms of how may 95's there are in the US, hard to say but it would seem there could be as many as a couple of dozen including Tourings. A colleague of mine of work has a 95 M5 sedan as well.
More to follow soon -- I hope.
Best regards, John B.
