Hello! I also have a bmw745i, year 2002, and I wish I could check it like you do, I really like how you know how to fix and explain everything about this car model, congratulations! I hope to learn some tricks too check and control how you do! I watch with interest the little videos you post! thank you very much!
Hi Martin, how common is rust for this e65 models? I never saw one with rust on the exterior, but what about the undercarriage? This type of rust yours has can it be fixed by a good body shop or restored? Also can you please tell me honestly, is the g11 much better than the e65?
Hi, it depends on environment where the car is used. For example here in UK, we have salt on the road every winter, so that doesn’t help. But overall E65 is better rust resistant than predecessor E38. The E65 body shell has 90% of sheet panels made from higher tensile steel, where E38 has only 30%. It’s hard compare G11 to E65. They’re both great cars. G11 has new technology and E65 I would say is more durable or solid.
@@martinhabinak thanks but what about comfort and the way they drive, handle? Is it worth upgrading? My opinion is that the f01 is not better at all than the e65 about the g11 I don't know
From my experience, G11 has more comfortable suspension and it handles better than E65, although the seats in E65 are more comfortable, better adjustable and the front seats are even wider.
@@martinhabinak yea i was already looking for replacements since they are indeed cracked but i didnt know the water gets in the boot? do u replace with oem or?
I don’t get why cars are so much cheaper in your country. £1400 is roughly R33k in south africa. These cars even at high mileage still fetch over R100k here
So glad that you post videos, eastern european brothers are coming together in DIYing BMW's! Can't wait for the next episode on the 730d!
After m539 attention to details with his BMW
I can't watch any RUclips BMW fixing videos
Not even Chrisfix
This man is a legend
Yes Streten is absolutely a legend ..
Just paused after the opening 15 seconds. Love the sense of humour. stood next to a £1400 V8 E65. The umbrella working... The car... lets find out.
Great car Martin! What do you do for work?
Great video. Hope that the next episode would be soon.
You sold the G11 7 series a month ago . Could you do a vlog on the reason Why you sold the care and roughly How much you recieved for the car ?

friend i have water in battery place but i dont have sunroof what can i check?
Check the inner tailights, they tend to crack after all those years.
@@martinhabinak yea i was already looking for replacements since they are indeed cracked but i didnt know the water gets in the boot? do u replace with oem or?
Great video! how did you activate that new version of ISTA?
It’s a dealer license by paying yearly subscription.
Great stuff. What happened to the blue one?
Thank you, still got it.
Are those bmw wheels?
Yes those are BMW wheels from BBS style 149
there is two more drains from sunroof on the back of the car mate
I know, I said in the video that I’ll clean them later.
@@martinhabinak my bad

I’d totally move to your country just for the car culture and market

Will do
Masterpiece
I have just bought one of these for £850 2002 735i
The rims alone are worth 1000£
