hello everyone...i've just become the owner of an 88 520 lux......one owner from new(my neighbour) and its still on his drive for the moment and although i have driven it in the past
ive not had to think about m.p.g.,so what can i expect from it ?........i have,dare i say it a vectra
2.0 gls....i know what you are all thinking lol.....how will the consumption compare ?. the 520 has been well looked after from new but one thing i have noticed is the steering is a bit loose,
ive only owned one other car with this type of steering...worm and peg/recirculating ball or whatever bmw call it,and i'm hoping that given its history and the fact it mot's every year ok
it needs nothing more than the adjustment lock nut and screw ( look like they have not been touched) tinkering with so to speak.forgot to add the mileage....103,000 and until i get a look
at all the paper work i don't know what work has been carried out in the past. everything else
works fine apart from the digital dash clock,any ideas what this could be anyone ?.this has always been a shape ive loved and ive my fill with the modern cars like the vectra,so i'm looking forward to putting it on the road....any advice welcomed on any subjects concerning this model.........i know there is some interesting quirks as with all cars..........
kind regards
joe
