I have a '94 530i, and am going to purchase a '96 to '98 740il. Are there any special problem areas to look out for? Any special web sites specifically about the 740il or 740il? I HAVE to get the 740il for the leg room. Thanks in advance.

Like shabir said, there is nothing much to look for, however tend to keep away from vehicles with self-levelling suspension, as they usually pack up after a while and cost around $1500 US to repair. Also watch for cars imported from countries like Singapore. Try to keep away from them generally. In other means, I hope you find the right car, fall in love with it and be safe in it.
Kind regards,
Charles
