I'm going to keep it! 700 1990

(guys twice I've posted this and the message has disappeared. Let's hope this one sticks and we get a few replies).

I am going to keep our 1990 740 T 5 spd. with only 118,000. The body is great and we love this car. She needs a few things and I'm putting together a list for my mechanic to either do or check. Please let me know what you'd definately do or skip and if I'm missing anything. Don't want to be silly with $$ but this is a great car and will keep it at least for a few more years. Thanks.
