Hello, Anyone From MT?

Hello,

I always wanted a BMW 5 or 7 Series, so after looking for months, on a whim, I bought an older MB, a 97 E420 in CA instead. We drove it back to MT and enjoyed every minute. Since then, I bought another older MB 98 S420. I've slowly been fixing all the minor problems as I learn about owning these older MBs. I am hooked. They have superb pickup in the 60 to 100mph range, so are great for passing on two lane roads.

I look forward to learning a lot here.

Thanks.
