A new episode of project Karlsruhe is here. It's finally running and driving!

One of the main reasons I didn't want to pay the asking price for this car initially was the poor compression test results that the previous mechanic got. The car was not running back then and he performed the test on a cold engine. It should be checked with the engine fully warm so I had to test it again for peace of mind. Thankfully, the results are excellent and we have a healthy engine!
Still lots to do on the car but we are heading down the right path. I'll be focusing on project Raleigh now, the E60 M5. I'm really eager to get it roadworthy and hit the Autobahn!

First Drive in 5 Years - V12 BMW E32 750iL - Project Karlsruhe: Part 4

After 5 years of standstill, this V12 machine is back in running and driving condition! In this episode, we perform a compression test of the engine, find more mistakes made by the previous mechanic and go for a short test-drive in the yard.
