740iL

Hi,

I am considering buying a 1997 740iL. Would like to hear from you guys if it's a good car in general.

1. Is it reliable?
2. Any common problems that will bit me?
3. Anything specific I should look for on the car before buying?
4. It's probably rear wheel drive, any comments on driving in the snow?
5. How much you spent for general maintenance, like oil change, etc.?
6. What is the worst problem you have?
7. Anyone maintain the car yourself? How easy is it? Any special tool needed?

Thanks in advance. Any comments is appreciated
