1997 BMW E39 523i 5 series. £500
By far and away the best car I have ever owned......So why am I selling? unfortunately the wife doesn't share my enthusiasm and hates the thing, too big and too old!!
Anyway Key Points
Low mileage, 95K miles
Just 2 owners from new.
Very tidy leather interior
Well serviced
Well above average condition for a 20 year old car.
Excellent runner.
New battery.
Everything works although the Aircon does need a re-gas.
Unfortunately it does not have an MOT. Back in June I took it to my local test centre wo informed me it would need 2 new rear tyres, rear brake pads and a couple of dust covers on the rear suspension , not sure exactly which. All easy and cheap stuff to fix. My local tyre place has a pair of NOS Nexen tyres that he will do for £40. As long as they are still available I can arrange too collect these on payment of a non-returnable deposit.
The only other thing to mention is that the steering seems to have an intermittent “stickiness” or “stiction” This may be the Rack or a simple ball joint.
Not quite sure if the images will be added correct so just in case here's a link to the Gumtree ad
The car is located in Congleton, Cheshire.
