<![CDATA[e28 - Check out this bill from The Werk Shop]]>e28 533i on Bring-a-Trailer auctions.  Maybe I am out of touch with how much it costs to pay somebody to work on a car.

Please note the $19,250 to "get this car going again after long term storage" is AFTER a $6000 discount.

Best part is it took us roughly two weeks get get both cars running and dialed.

Better part is he then went back to that shop after we fixed them.

WTF is wrong with people?

There should be a new cylinder head and professional engine and transmission rebuild involved to get the bill running that high.
