Hey! I'm from the UK and in Australia - Going to look at a 75 518 E12 on Sunday. Your videos have been very helpful, as you say, the M10 E12's are seemingly very rare. Keep it up
Thank you very much. Yes, these cars need saving as many already met the big scrapyard in the sky. Good luck with your E12 and let us know how you get on
@@GentilsGarage I bought it. The 518 was never sold in Australia and the one I’ve got is South African made. No rust whatsoever but parts are going to be a bastard! Any links or websites you recommend seeing as I’ll likely be buying stuff from Europe
It has crossed my mind, but my channel is still very small and I need to create content on a regular basis for the patron members have value for their money. Maybe in the future.
Well done doing it properly. I have to admire your persistence and patience.
Thank you. It’s the only way to go, especially when pockets aren’t deep
Glad you're doing right by it, mate! Know what this car means to you!
Thanks Joe, it’ll be another labour of love. It’s the car’s 50th birthday so I can’t miss any events in 2024!
One of my favorite classic BMW's
Same here

Good idea to rebuild the current engine. Weber looks like a good improvement!
I hope it works. I’m taking my time and make sure I don’t mess up
Should be rebuilding my head next week👌🏻
Nice one, looking forward to see the outcome.
Nice one,Shouldn’t be too bad of a job 👍😎
Never removed a head or rebuilt one in my life before. Should go well 😂
Hi Gentil, have you thought about setting up patreon? People can donate to your channel to help fund videos/car parts 👍
