Thanks, yeah I’m more like that as well tbh but I feel I should try to be a more conscientious owner with this one as I’m taking a really well preserved example and putting into daily kid-moving duty.

That’s the maintenance thread i mentioned .
Edit, it's not quite the right one. There's a link to the e46 fanatics forum in the bimmerfest thread that had a very exhaustive list, but the link doesn't work any more :(

So sick, love it! Can't advise on preventative maintenance I'm more of a "fix things as they break" kinda guy.
There's a post on one of the BMW forums I've saved somewhere that has an extensive service schedule (but it's aimed at e46 rather than e39). I'll see if I can dig it out. Usually good to try and find out common problems to check - expansion tank cracks, oil breather update etc.
As always @Fixedwheelnut is the Oracle of all things BMW.
