exactly ive been binge watching this. it puts me to sleep which in this case is a compliment. puts my mind at ease. im in the market for an 8 series or any v12 this particular car looks like one id see in a car lot in the hood. desert climates are harsh on car interiors lol. as you can see here.
Feels like yesterday watching this back in 2020 during covid lockdown in Greece. Sreten if you ever see this, just think of the impact you did in the European car community. Thank you Sreten.
Others have said it, but it bears repeating; a commitment to detail I have yet to see elsewhere in car restoration videos, a dry sense of humor, and a clean, professional editing with nothing superfluous are why I love this channel.
Man I got an 740i US Spec.... and was hoping someone had made a video on how to overhaul the front and rear suspension items.... thx for doing so!! Your video of Germany brings back many memories of my Army days there. Was stationed at Mainz-Finthen Army Army Airfield back in the late 70’s to 85. I fell in love with BMW’s ever since I had my first trip down the autobahn.... had a few Bimmers there I wished I could of imported back stateside... but that’s another story. My 740i is Silver on black interior as well ..... but doesn’t have to travel history as yours does.... I got mines from Las Vegas when I seen it on car lot and just had to have it.... so I purchased it and drove back home to Topeka,KS. That was in 2010.... again thx for sharing your videos man.... looking forward to you next ones!!! Auf Wiedersehen!!!🇺🇸🇩🇪
Hello Sreten! I'm sitting for already 5 min and thinking about what to comment. As a fellow BMW enthusiast (e39 540i MT) and DIY guy I think it's amazing how you found just the right balance between repair manual, functional description and funny editing. And even for 45 min long videos! I tip my imaginery hat for that! And I love the way you found an air leakage using the fog machine. I'm going to buy one, too. Another thing I take away from your videos is how important good tools are. Thank you for your videos and I hope there are a lot more to come!
I remember when I accidently stumbled upon this video a couple of years back. After watching the intro I was instantly hooked up. Ever since have been waiting being watching Sreten's passion and skills grow to become one of the most respected BMW restorer around. Thank you for sharing your story here with us!
I'm getting kinda scared here :) Why is this thing falling apart like that? My parents had a 5er from new for 16 years and nothing like that ever happened...
Baerchenization Probably neglect and not taking care of it. It’s also traveled from Japan to Dubai and now to Germany. That’s a long way to go. An older 1 owner car can end up totally different than something like this that has had many many owners.
Just discovered your channel thru project marseille and am already a huge fan. I saw that you did a Project Dubai, and was intrigued as I live in Dubai. I spat my drink outb when you opened the Dubizzle picture as these pics were taken on my street!!!. Small world Absolutely crazy
back after the most recent shop video and i didnt realize it when i first watched project dubai that it was the first of the actual channel! you have come a long way in your production and presenting in a very short time, for sure this has become one of my favorite youtube channels. Keep up the good work, im gonna meander through your old videos!
Sreten - I am an E39 devotee and subscriber from Australia, now playing catch-up on your amazing video series. Thank you. Looking at the state of the 750i (door panels, trim, etc) on arrival from Dubai it reminds me of the condition of my much-loved 1996 E39 528i that I could not part with when my family and I emigrated from Ireland. So eventually I imported it to Australia. Customs ripped every panel off looking for the cocaine they assumed I was importing (and which you mention brilliantly in passing about the function of the rear tray!🤣). I am sure your 750i did not leave Dubai looking (and smelling) like this. My own 528i was in a sorry state on arrival at my new home in Australia (without the glue smell and ruined roof liner, thankfully!) which took me months to remedy. It’s a pity that we have no redress against Customs. Yes, the war against drugs is important, but what about our beautiful classic cars....😮🤪? Thanks again for your fantastic videos.
I'm loving the videos so far! So much that I'm binge watching all of them now that I discovered your channel. Please keep more coming! I love the humor, cursing and the video editing. It's very pleasing! Now being a fresh BMW owner, this will inevitably get my addiction going.
Dude, you are awesome. I’m no mechanic myself but I know a thing or two about repairs just by listening and watching my mechanic work on my cars through the years. I subscribed to you channel!
I have been following your videos since last night. I watches 4-5 videos straight. You are the best mechanic ever I seen. Very skillful. I am keep watching even though I do not have any BMW currently. I am really enjoyed to watching your channel. Thank you for your wonderful videos.
Not one but three beautiful BMW from the hallo period of BMW production history to date...I luv this channel, absolute dynamite of information and experience, how many years have you been restoring these beautiful cars, it really shows, and your IT background makes you understand the need for OEM and detail in your work and specification...there is no middle ground... just right or wrong... and I respect that.
Congratulations. I would prefer to take a holiday to watch all your videos in peace. Now I found out that in the beginning you didn't even have a crane. Great respect from me and greetings from Munich.
So Sreten, i decided to go back in time to look at your original content. My, how you have grown and improved but you can see the beginnings of your well thought out, and enjoyable content. Love the growth of the Dojo as well. Well done my friend and keep up the good work.
I literally looovveeeee this guy!!! his videos have informed me about my m73 engine on my 750 iL!!!!! But I have so many questions and things to show him
I have to say, thanks for washing the car 'before' working on it. I remember fuming when watching B is for Build and his Lambo project, wanting him to at least clean the car a bit so it would not bother me in every shot. Anyway, OCD thanks from Gig Harbor. Thanks for the inspiration and keep on trucking !
Hey, just found your film by chance. Very well made & informative, thanks. I live in Dubai (for 20 yrs, most people here are just passing-through for a year or two) so know the local car scene fairly well. You were quite ballsy for buying a car off dubizzle remote control... no matter how they're presented most cars on there are sold by traders of some nature. Anyways sounds like it turned-out OK so far & you know your stuff. Did the Dubai garage that did the PPI pick-up most of the faults you mentioned? Look forward to more films. Cheers :-)
Thanks! I like to gamble sometimes :) The seller was Danish Fly Emirates pilot, seemed like a nice guy, but not a car guy. They found most of the stuff and were very helpful, basically I just needed someone to verify the body didn't have major damage and engine and tranny are fine. It's about what I expected with the bonus of paint being original.
@@M539RestorationsAwesome! Would you also please mention how much you paid for it? Really curious to find out! You could have also tried out dubicars.com It's a pleasure browsing through, they've got stuff that you won't come across in Dubizzle too!
@@onecoolstorybro No, in short. Buying sight unseen is risky full stop. Add the limited info you see on Dubizzle & the fact that most sellers are traders just increased the risk. Adverts located in Al Awir / Ras Al Khor just increased the risk again... Even PPI at a main agency dealer here isn't 100%, but better than nothing.
And I’m here again for the 5th time 😆 Just waiting for the next part of project raleigh, love how your style has stayed the same and not turned too cringey or commercial, big fan!
If it comes to getting the stink out of a car - nothing beats ozone generators! I was a bit sceptical at first but then had a car that was just plain horrible and after 20 minutes of ozone treatment the only smell was ozone itself and it kept it that way. Only problem is, the car needs to be dry inside - which probably isn't a problem your end - but here in the UK you have to catch it on one of the two days of the year when it's not raining, dry it and do it. But really effective, managed to get a lot of stinking cars back to life. And it kills all germs, bacteria, fungi and mold mites (like dust mites) tiny spider-like creatures here in the UK that live in moist conditions - so practically everywhere - common inside cars, laptops, etc. Lovely. Great video, love the car.
Not Ali baba dude. Al balawi, and thats my showroom 😂 we sold this car ages ago to an arab, instantly recognized my showroom name and my fathers contact. This car was mint when we sold it, sadly the owner didnt keep it that way. Good to see this
Hahaa, no offense taken, I'll ask my father about it. We've sold plenty of these and s600 v12s in mint around the 2000-2008 mark. Will provide specifics. Mind sharing your email?
I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos your comments are funny and your work detail is to the point you do not overemphasize too much on any particular area thus making your videos enjoyable and not boring you do a fantastic job please keep the videos coming I will continue watching them as I am a BMW enthusiast thanks again
GREAT Video mate. I have an E38 740i and I just started my own channel too where I show people the work I have done on the m62tu engine and other bits and pieces. Thank you for this video, I will subscribe and show my support to your channel as I know how hard it is and how good the feeling is when someone appreciates your work. big thumbs up and look forward to see more content from you. The 3 cars you have are my most favourite BMWs of all time.
Found this channel yesterday. So sorry it's not Audi related, but the craftmanship is phenomenal. The explanation, the attention to detail, for sure the best on youtube
Someone obviously has to be the best. You definitely are Sreten. Love every second of your videos. 3rd time watching Project Dubai, Project Chicago done up-until now 4 times and pretty sure that`s not it.....
This channel is great and brings back childhood memories as my uncle used to own a 750iL as well s an 850i Thanks for creating and sharing this outstanding content. Schöne Grüße!
If you and your twin brother actually got on, you could work on these cars together and get the work done twice as fast. Seriously though, great work, great vids and enjoyable sense of humour. Opposable thumbs up.
Greetings from Russia! :) Very cool content 👍 I discovered your channel Yesterday, I'm glad I noticed it. I am a fan of the BMW brand, and I will be happy to follow your projects 🙌
Wonderful heartwarming video as usual. The attention to every small detail really shows and I'm only on the first video of seven. I also congratulate you on having the patience of a saint. P.S I doubt anyone else would've gotten that wheel off without heating it with an acetylene lamp or maybe using WD-40.
E38 ... V12, probably the most perfect Engine ever produced by the BMW for such cars.. I have one. with all the other paraphernalia like Double Glazed Windows with mesh curtains ...With the Sports button pressed, it is a monster of a car to control. I have slightly low profile tyres in the front for stability taking corners and curves at high speed...yes, it is a great car to own and drive ...
love your channel. recent subscriber. i do talk to my projects while working on them. keeps me focused. and you actually do a damn near happy dance when car starts for first time ( seen in pretty much all starts
Did he just say what brand is "Invo" ? This guy is hilarious. I've watched a few of his repairs now and it's definitely worth the time. Keep them coming !
Every new subscriber should re visit this video, is amazing how Sreten was a top player from the beginning, if you add a some polish to this video you get what he is today (and tons of new tools).
Hi there. Great work you are doing and a pleasure to watch. WARNING: Just in case you are not aware (as I wasn't) you need to be VERY careful about your 7 series engine block to ensure that it wasn't made from Nickisil. Briefly (and if this is news to you I HIGHLY recommend that you research it as much as possible) that the engine blocks of some of these were made from Nickisil which was a new alloy only ever tested with pure petrol. As we all know what comes out of the station pumps is far from pure, and indeed corrodes the engine block within 100,000 miles. This ignorance on my part cost me two replacement engine blocks!! Beware - although I have a sneacking suspicion that you are probably ahead of the game anyway..
Crazy coincidence. Recently stumbled upon and subscribed to your (great!) channel and watching this episode today. Ima German, but live in the community in Dubai where you bought this 750 from (Meydan H.). Small world 🤯
The rear wheels on my E21 were frozen to the hubs in the rear when I bought it. I put the lugs back in most of the way and slowly drove it forward about a meter. Worked a treat!
I will blame TH-cam not to have recommended me this channel earlier, this is amazing. Proper work ethic, no detail is overlooked. Amazing.
exactly ive been binge watching this. it puts me to sleep which in this case is a compliment. puts my mind at ease. im in the market for an 8 series or any v12 this particular car looks like one id see in a car lot in the hood. desert climates are harsh on car interiors lol. as you can see here.
totally agree with you
I agree, having this recommended to me, is like striking gold!
I guess you would blame TH-cam for the pandemic too.
@@TrailVapor I was being sarcastic to blame an algorithm that did not do its job.
Feels like yesterday watching this back in 2020 during covid lockdown in Greece.
Sreten if you ever see this, just think of the impact you did in the European car community.
Thank you Sreten.
Cocaine table...I’m dying😂
This is an awesome channel and please keep the videos coming on the E38, I’m hooked
Thank you!
when he said that, i scrolled down lol
Thats how they are named by e38 community ✌️ also the lights on a c pillars are named “porn ligts”
This has immediately become favorite car restoration channel.
Easily lol
I think E38 750iL is the best looking car ever made, comfort + sport combined :)
Not to rain on ur parade but it’s really not that sporty comfort luxury smooth ride power when u need it yes best and nicest. Car ever made yes
Others have said it, but it bears repeating; a commitment to detail I have yet to see elsewhere in car restoration videos, a dry sense of humor, and a clean, professional editing with nothing superfluous are why I love this channel.
I love this guy’s confidence and offhand manner while being completely competent.
Oh my goodness... I am here in Dubai and was gonna check that car out when it was up for sale. Interesting to see where it ended up... lol...

Rewatching in 2024 amazing car repair content
It's amazing that this 750iL has travelled from Germany (?) to Japan, to Dubai, brought back (?) to Germany, then ended up in UK

Ever since have been waiting being watching Sreten's passion and skills grow to become one of the most respected BMW restorer around. Thank you for sharing your story here with us!

Beware - although I have a sneacking suspicion that you are probably ahead of the game anyway..
Thanks! That's the case only with older M60 V8's.
Another great video, with swearwords at the points where I would have used them, too... great stuff, I'm hooked :)
Crazy coincidence. Recently stumbled upon and subscribed to your (great!) channel and watching this episode today. Ima German, but live in the community in Dubai where you bought this 750 from (Meydan H.). Small world 🤯

I have owned two E39 M5s and they are fantastic cars.
This is the best 7 series generation ever
The rear wheels on my E21 were frozen to the hubs in the rear when I bought it. I put the lugs back in most of the way and slowly drove it forward about a meter. Worked a treat!
