Where do wrecked E34's all end up?
Everytime I check the wreckers around here (Kitchener-Waterloo) and ask if they have any BMW's around, they all look at me like I have three heads and that I should be going to Germany for parts! WTF??
Are there wrecking yards around GTA that only take in these kinds of cars or what??
Never seem to have any luck finding any used parts?

Haha....yep....that's what it's all about my friend.

They aren't readily available, let me tell you...

This is my second E34, and I still have to buy parts out of the states all the time.

What exactly are you looking for?

Try:

403 Auto - 905-637-2319
BimmerSport - 905-949-5701
Chuck's - 416-749-9211
City Auto - 416-213-5752
Dominion - 905-570-8797
Mike's - 905-385-9292
Ontario Auto Salvage - 905-849-9969
BMW Used Parts - 416-741-3121


Let me know if you need help with a particular item...I might be of use.

cheers,




G$

Thats because special places like Chuck's and BMW Used Parts pay TOP $$$ for scrap cars BMWs...If normal junk yards pay $50, they will give you $500 to $1000...so no wonder where these cars go!
