A lot gets achieved and with this video, we are pretty much done with the mechanical restoration of this car. The 7er is at last in perfect running and driving condition.

I’m watching this a second time. No one can stop me.
I do the same and I use the 2 German words I know when shit goes bad.
Well, proceed at your own risk then.
Chinese authorities left the chat.
Do you dare go in for a third?
R Torical It’s just a matter of time.
Ive said this before, and ill say it again, never stop uploading, this is some grade A content, 30 mins flew by
I agree
So true! I would point this is the best car channel of them all.
Yeah man. I love this channel. I hope it doesnt end actually hahaha

Ikr aye like 30 mins goes by soo quick watching his vids
I like the this guy specially because he cleans everything he touched.
he left the other intake manifold like that with glue. was dissapointed by that
@@Ajay-kl8el there was no need to remove it because that side had no faults and it would be many wasted hours
@@THEADZBRADZ it was glued on. By God knows what glue they used. A chunk of the hard glue residue could fall into the cams and cause damage. He should have opened it and replaced with an open gasket
I must admit that I would have had to remove the glue on the other side as well - perfectionism is strong on me ;-) .
Germans...
This guy’s content is better than anything I watch on Netflix
Perhaps because this isn't politicised.
I’ve been a BMW tech for almost 20 years. My pride and joy was a 2001 740i sport. I installed intake manifold from the m60 motor, updated the radio to bm53 flat pin so I could do factory aux input and the list goes on. It was modified but all factory parts. You sir, deserve that car ! Great job.
Modifying factory parts is the best way to respect the original look of the car
@@SzwarcuKX5 and using hashtags trying to look cool when you don't know their purpose is unoriginal

stargate2002 but he is not a mechanic! He works in IT 🤣! But I agree 💯%. An mechanical hero!
Project Dubai makes me that much closer to make the next project on the channel be a heavily neglected 750il! Awesome videos! Thank you for all your hard work!
The only way to improve these videos would be to increase the production budget to €1bn and have these videos daily :)

You are absolutely unbelievable. As a German I can only imagine how much this huge job would’ve cost at a BMW dealership and I’m perfectly sure it would’ve never ever been that thorough. I work on old hydropneumatic Citroen’s everybody thinks are complicated. Compared to this here, they are an absolute walk in the park and I will never complain ever again! Premium content! Please keep on doing it!
Kakav Netflix, tvoje epizode se iščekuju više nego bilo kakva serija, kralju, samo tako nastavi. Svaka čast!
Ahhhh yeah!! Bedtime will have to be delayed for some sarcastic BMW action 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I bet when you see something out of place in the car while driving, you keep looking at it with fix anxiety. Keep up that attention to detail bud.
100 % this car been used in UAE which there is coins on center console , btw aweer they bring cars with good condition which cost 5 k Euro I'm checking the market always
The problem in UAE they don't know how to fix BMW e38 because takes too much time and no one wants to work with it 😒 that's why I want to open work shop in UAE repair only BMW
@@alis.4121 So you are telling me nobody can repair their car in UAE, and you want to open a repair shop. That's sound like an excellent idea, I wish you all the best.
@@arkm7792 yes because it's too hot and to open workshop it's expansive and you get fine for no reason
@@LEGIOXIIIG are you in UAE?
"I'm looking forward to taking this for a drive and seeing what else breaks" - Comment of the week haha.
Hey, I've been following this project since the first episode was uploaded. All I want to say is: Wow, I'm really glad you were the one who picked up this 750. You were exactly the owner this car needed to be resurrected, after all the hack jobs/mechanics that were working on it prior! This episode was really my favorite of the bunch, seeing how far she's come and finally passing inspection. Your attention to detail is outstanding. This is a similar reason why I decided to start working on my cars myself- I simply don't trust a mechanic to put this much careful work into a job.
This E38 is very lucky you came along and saved her from rotting in the desert. Wishing you many happy miles of autobahn runs after you get the plates!
Many thanks!
@@M539Restorations svaka cast majstore!
@sundanske my Kuwaiti friend, any 10 year old car that has lived in Germany is a rustbucket. Cars from middle east = no rust, thats why he bought it.
U can watch him go on for half an hour and not skip one second. There are few youtubers who can do this nowadays. Good job, keep it up can't wait for the E60!
Yeah, and he manages to do it all without some awful fake up-voice hype man persona. It's like he has actual content or something :D

I absolutely LOVE your attention to detail! Especially the fact that you thoroughly clean EVERYTHING in the area(s) that you're working on! I go bananas when I see someone throw a part back on without cleaning the area in which it goes first! To me, that says a lot about the caliber of work a person does. And your work, my friend, is always of the highest caliber! Thanks for the quality content you produce! It's not only informative, but entertaining, as well! Good Job!
Thank you for watching!
I like that you quote 'Step Brothers', good film.

Really love how you repair your cars back to OEM look. I'm the same way. I can't stand the unnecessary mods people put on BMWs
0:11 "expertly removed BMW kidney grill"
Expert 100
HAHAH
I can't even get through the intro without a laugh and a like.
HAHAHAHA second time ive watched this and i just realized hes from mother yugoslavia when he was mad at the kidney-grill and cursed at it i did same to one of mine
Haha i ja sam isti. Po drugi put gledam sve klipove i sad sam skužio da je naš hahaha😂😂
Every time I watch one of your videos (all of them) I go down to the garage to ‘work on my cars’, when I remember I don’t know anything about fixing cars, nor do my cars need fixing, so entertained.
The E38 is one of my dream cars. Unfortunately I would only have one being your friend and living close to you. Being your friend is no problem, but since I live in Brazil, the second condition would be a bit complicated to accomplish. 🤣🤣 Congrats. Great job on the car and video. Greetings from São Paulo.
Get one, a Bentley’s workshop manual, and learn how to work on it. The people that hated these cars and think that they’re money pits, are those that chose to take them to someone to fix, except those someones were mechanics that glue valve covers on. It’s just better to learn about your car, and learn to do it right by watching guys like this. They’re not for everyone, they are aging cars, but if you have the passion for them, and acquire the necessary skills to keep up with all the things that break, and to do it properly, there’s no reason you can’t have one. They’re not as expensive to keep up with, if you treat them like they should be.
If there was a prize awarded to the best mechanic in all Germany, he'd be in total admiration and awe with your professionalism & know-how. Absolutely outstanding!
In 1987 when these were new I was a sacker. In wealthy Texas Neighboorhoods people like me would take the groceries to a persons car from the cashier. I remember that I watched a housewife park this awesome ride and I made a mental note to make sure I was the one who brought her groceries out. When I did it I told her how much I liked it and she rewarded me with a huge tip😀
I've just finished watching the 3rd part of the project, this came just in time! Love your channel and the amount of dedication you have for those old BMWs, can't wait to see what you have in store for the 330i Touring and the infamous E60 M5.
I actually stopped watching other repair channels that make everything look sooooo easy when working on old cars....this here is the most realistic channel I know....no matter how good you are, the car will fight back and there is always swearing....:) great job. I am looking forward to seeing you and your car around Frankfurt on the A3 or A5
Thank you again for another fantastic video. Appreciate the time you take with filming and editing. Your videos are worth the wait!!!
I LOVE how you keep everything so clean!
The former mechanic on this car is an absolute lunatic 😂😂
Some low key arabic "mechanic" in Dubai's poor end i suppose
There are shitty mechanics all over the world, in every country, in every village I would say. Sometimes I can't blame them, working on time/money stress of rushed customers, but a BMW deserves better than that
Mahmood Y.H That sounds about right.... 👍😉
Omg, finally I met someone who as obsessed with cars as me. I took my E46 into another level of detailing/rebuilding including the engine. Overall it cost me like 7-8k euros and at the end of the day I'm a bit scared to drive that car on an urban street where it's a big of a chance that someone might just run into your car and ruin it completely and the insurance company just say "Alright here's your 2000 euros for your old BMW - go buy a new one"
That is exactly what happened to me just a couple weeks ago on my 07 Audi Q7 which I've owned since new and only has 68K miles. It was time to do some updating to it to give it the S-Line look and I spent $6K+ on paint work, interior and exterior replacement/upgrades and larger 21" rims & tires. Once it was complete 2 weeks later an older woman rear ended me! The insurance company would NOT pay to fix the car! All that work was a complete waste! The insurance settlement is hardly enough to buy a replacement! I'm out a car and paying for someone else's negligence...ARGHHH!!!
Have it appraised, so your insurance actually pays you more if it gets wrecked. Your premium probably will go up for that specific car, but it's worth it.
Justin Roiland hey man I feel the same way! I’ve already spent $6000 US on my 2001 740i m sport and I am the one working on it haha I still have a lot to do to get it done but it’s all about what you really like and enjoy working on your own car.
@@Swordie100 Yeah we pushed the insurance company multiple times for a higher valuation of the car with comparisons and receipts of all the work done. After weeks of back and forth they eventually settled on an amount that would cover repairing the car. After 2 months from the incident I picked up the car yesterday and forgot how good the car looked after all the upgrades I had done. The car was nicely polished and gleaming in the sun, it looked fresh off the showroom floor. Very happy that I was able to get the car fixed and not sent to auction.
@@DB-ul2zd Ah you did that! Here you have to have it actually appraised. Well done on your part tho.
This guy does all the electrical, electronic and engine works. Usually, those specialties are done by different specialists!
I'm watching through entire Dubai series so don't hold back in your future videos. Fing A
Best channel and best content on CZcams 👍
You had me burst out laughing on the "drivers and drinkers side"
I just noticed that too. Little things like that show you've really been watching every single millisecond of his work.
My Grandad said that when I was a little guy. Sometimes he'd tell my Dad........ "If you don't mind , I believe I'll need to ride in the drinkers seat" lol
I've watched this like 12 times and I'm not kidding, dead serious, love your content ❤️
This is just pure joy to watch, since first to last second. Can't wait for next part!
Brilliant, what a great way to start the day. Haha I actually said “yay” out loud when I saw you and released a new video.🥳
I like how easily the left side of things come off with a satisfying pop
Love the detail, the humor and the process. One of my favorite wrenching channels.
Love these videos, man! I appreciate that you give clear and thorough explanations without going into so much detail that it gets boring. You have a great sense of pacing (good use of fast forward when needed haha). I am a huge fan of this era of BMWs and am happy that you're sharing your experience restoring them. I'd love to see a video at some point comparing all the cars you've worked on/owned, just to talk about things you loved/hated or what your favorites were. Keep up the great work!
A few random observations. Your very lucky with all those plastic clips on the headlights. I would have many broken ones to replace! It's hard to believe you're not a BMW master technician! And finally, that is one beautiful car, well done sir!
I've got to say, this is one of my favorite channels. I really love the way you approach repair and restoration. Great job and really looking forward to your next video!
Thank you!
Your video's are like therapy. Exactly what I need.
Man this is great content, no fancy music or anything else, just great DIY nice and calm.
Keep up the good work
this content always makes me feel like I can do every project on my car myself, but also like I should pay a professional to do it instead lmao.
Absolutely love your work. Really look forward to seeing more.
Absolutely love watching you work on these beautiful cars. I have an e45 330Ci that I am planning to restore to its former glory. Keep uploading videos!
The way you explain everything and how much you know about it just makes me want to get my broken car into your hands, even if I live in Portugal hahaha
Love your videos! Cheers🍷
Please do more restorations like this!! This content is amazing!! Much love from the 🇺🇸!
Man I just love this channel! I completely understand tearing apart those parts! The crap we get aftermarket is sometimes shameful.
I love the way you‘re commenting your own work, your detailing, the cutting of your videos and especially your German 🙃.
Great stuff!
the best i've seen so far..no inbetween bs or like to be funny..no,... just serious fixing,repairing everything that needs to be repaired or renewed. This guy is topclass mechanic..at least in my book.
I cant pinpoint satisfaction on each fix, just an overall deep feeling of total satisfaction at the end.
What a pleasure to watch.
Thank you.
Could we get a price breakdown after the build is completed? Car price and parts?
Thanks!!
Yes, in the finale.
@@M539Restorations 1. You truly are a great guy and a great mechanic!!! Really love your passion and the effort that you put in these restorations! I seriously would like to meet you someday and just hang out :) :) :) .
2. Are you going to keep the car or will it be for sale after the restoration? If you're selling please let me know. Thanks for the vids and the solid entertainment you deliver :) :) :) .
I was wondering about that too, must be a 5 or 6 digit number :D
Don't ask, don't tell :-)
5 grand for parts my guess.
This is absolutely amazing! You explain everything in detail. God bless Germany ❤
Absolutely loving this. Excellent attention to detail through shooting!

-Naah.. new video uploaded ❤
Didn't even realize how long the video was until it was over. Best 30 minutes I've had this week haha. You're videos are amazing. Wish I was as thorough and patient of a mechanic as you. Cheers
why i dig this guy..humor...severe mechanical aptitude...killer cars...and fantastic editing...
You're like a god of BMW. I also appreciate your references to top gear and Doug de mouro, with you being where to speak the most common off the european languages. Cheers, your videos have taken up much of my life.
A clean E38 is a marvelous thing to behold. Beautiful car.
I admire the detailed work on the car, when doing the headlights, engine, every part the cleaning gets me hooked. Exactly what I would do and therefore it makes me happy to watch all the video’s, I love it!

I have been watching your videos for some time now. It's amazing how you don't just change things but really fix them. That is the true art
I watched your whole channel in the last week I can’t get enough. I’ve an e38 myself and the standard of car you make is amazing!
The standard is fairly low considering I've seen him use some very low quality parts.
Edit: It's obviously not, just still giving him a hard time for using such a garbage part.
@MrCarGuy20, stop writing stupid stuff and take your expert opinions and hatred elsewhere.
@@M539Restorations No hatred, bud. Nothing stupid about it. The stupid thing is you can't bring yourself to admit you made a mistake using certain parts. If you understand how suspension bushings interact you wouldn't use OE for some and bottom-rung Chinesium for another. Just trying to bring it to your attention. Looks like it worked.
You managed to piss me off if that's your goal cause you're spreading false stuff. I spent nearly 2k on the suspension for this car buying TRW and Lemforder parts. I already explained stupid Febst bushings and not going to do it again. I repeat, keep your expert opinions to yourself.
MrCarGuy20 you clearly haven’t watched all of his videos. With nearly every part that goes in (if not every part) he explains where it came from and the brand. He also explains why this brand is the best suited. It’s beyond me that you can’t see that no penny was spared in any of the restoration videos that are on this channel. There is no need to bring negativity in when you clearly don’t have the knowledge in this area. No need to be writing this nonsense

I have no idea about fixing cars but this is pure entertainment.
Like if you think that the E38 is the best BMW ever made
why would someone use freaking GLUE to "seal" the engine!?
they use slave labor in the desert
maybe they had the great idea that the glue would keep the sand out xD ...like anakin already said...sand gets everywhere
@bittercottoncandy Camel hoof.
I know it's bad but hay it's not leaking
When my E38 left me stranded in some remote holiday resort, with a severely leaking water pump, I found out the hard way that contact glue was used to seal the two o rings that seal on the two water pipes that run to and from the rear of the engine. You can imagine how much fun that was. M62 engine btw.
Love your detail clean up on that engine bay, made her look brand new.
First of all, I'd like to start by saying this is an amazing channel and awesome to watch, great content and quality videos, keep it up!
