    The high rear stance made a lot more sense to me when I saw that it's used for towing. I'm guessing this touring doesn't have the self-leveling rear suspension?

    Dave, my best. Snotty, glad you settled??
    Fun, that's what all this is about.

    Stay positive and looking forward.

    Abraxas, Erdinger would be a second choice. Cheers!

    Wow! Trailer hitch. Was that a stock option for the wagon? I've got one on my 530 that I use for pulling the JY 15 to VT but it was a custom install.

    There was also a trailer, ramps and all sorts of extras available. Realoem.com, e39, accessories or optional equipment section.

    Abraxas, Schneider-Weiss, Tap 7 to be exact.

    Awesome! This is my inspiration for putting a tow hitch on my 540it. It's funny because in the US everybody freaks out when an E39 touring is used for towing.

    Awesome! Every time somebody says that E39's can't tow, I just show them your pictures.

    Just saw this thread for the first time and I don't understand the hate, it's your car, you are clearly an enthusiast and you can do whatever you want to it. My first E39 touring actually came with a hitch on it, although I never used it. But I've also had an and E3 and an E12 with hitches I did do towing with. The E12 as recently as last year. I got a lot of looks, but no criticism.

    But cool, a working E39 touring!

    Love your optimism

    I'd rather die or take a walk before driving an E60 or any BMW made after Y2K.

    All it lacks is a bent dance pole sticking out of the roof, and a naked dancing zombie girl spinning around the pole, lol.
