2001 BMW 530i SE manual

(NB, badged as 520i but it IS 530i.. Long story..)

Service history as in link below Very comprehensive as I've had the car for years and essentially rebuilt it. When bought it it needed TLC so fixed what it needed and carried out proactive maintenance for the future.

(Also have huge folder of receipts etc to look through)

Currently it's on sports suspension (brand new dampers and springs at around 115k), everything else is the normal SE spec. Matching spare wheel in the boot.

Has BMW comfort seats, so basically infinitely adjustable, memory on driver's side.

Mechanically all good, no brake judder (I cured that ASAP). New (thicker) Redline MT-90 gearbox oil used when the clutch was replaced, so gearbox is slightly notchy (been like this since changed). Steering is slightly heavy at low speed, doesn't use fluid though, again always been like this. There are few age related dings to the bodywork and the usual E39 rust spots.

MOT until March 2018 (just done).

Located in central Birmingham New Street train station is 10 minute walk. So really easy to come and view.

The car has done lot of miles in the last few years as bought it to tour Europe in (two big holidays).. No longer needed as I'm now single (!) and have decided to move to Australia..

Please text or call me on 07840388718 for details and to arrange viewing.


ETA Lots of watchers, and today I've put this on sale on lots of other sites.
