  1. Sold to Barry! Congrats mate, I hope you enjoy the car like I have :)! Keep us updated with how you get on bringing her back to her former glory!
  2. Note: No errors codes or engine check lights.
  3. Yep would be matt's old car - from a very long time ago though haha. Open to offers - I think the car might also possibly need a new battery or maybe just a good charge as the car isn't being used at the moment.
  4. Thanks guys - spread the word !
  5. Cheers Qube. Hahahaha yeah sorry for the multiple delete + repost... I was using CTRL+ENTER instead of SHIFT+ENTER to go to the next line - and it kept posting it before I had finished my bad! Yes, if I had the space too I would love to spend a little bit of money and bring her back to her former glory - will be an exciting project for someone!!
  6. Hi Guys I've finally moved on from the old E39 to the newer F10, so am looking to sell the long-serving 530i. Some of you might remember the car from many years ago. The car is certainly in need of some TLC to get her back up to scratch - but has many positives too, and would make for a really good project for whoever has some time and effort to put into it. Please read below for positives & negatives. I have listed all details which I am aware of at this stage. Car Details: 2002 BMW 530i Motorsport INDIVIDUAL E39 NZ New 265,000 kms Le-Mans Blue Metallic Black Leather Interior with INDIVIDUAL package blue stitching, and with aluminum trim. M-Sport package including door-trims, steering wheel, wheels, front/rear bumpers etc. Positives: Although high kms - engine and gearbox seem to be just as powerful and smooth as ever - car has had regular servicing throughout my ownership (I have had this car since 130,000km ish). Interior condition - namely Leather + Trim etc. - in very good condition for its age - aside from some minor issues which will be mentioned below. All 4 tyres have very good tread - approx 70%+ all round. Paint condition - overall - is decent, especially when considering the Kms. Car still has a current Rego. - Expires late July. Stereo just as good as ever, car comes with tube subwoofer/amp in boot. Negatives: Front Brake Rotors likely worn - causing steering wheel to shake while braking - will need replacement. - Rears look OK. On occasions there appears to be a water leak on passenger rear side - I believe this is possibly due to rear windscreen seals being worn - Car has mostly been stored in the garage so has been OK. Front Bumper has a significant number of small stone chips - simply just from the mileage - could use a respray. Front passenger side fog light cracked. Slight fading on headlights - might buff out (common with most E39s). 2 known rear left Parking sensors (PDC) broken, as such the PDC system is non-functional - could use sensor replacements. Front Drivers seat recline adjustment issues - seat can still slide forward/back, however seat struggles to recline - possibly seat recline motor - still gets power all OK. Steering wheel decay from heat/use, functional but cracked/wear n tear at the top (see photo). Dent in drivers side door (approx 10cm). Rear bumper small wave/warping in center - paint all OK. Small dent/scratch on rear passenger side pillar area. Main key remote low on battery, other ones are completely dead (don't work) - this is possibly causing the alarm to go off randomly on very rare occasion - could just be key battery. Spare wheel in boot has a flat/damaged tyre on it. As you can see, this car can certainly be brought back to its former glory with a little time and effort. I still love driving this thing, even compared to much newer cars. The E39 is really a timeless classic. Looking for around the $2,500 mark - or give me an offer. Car is in Takanini, Auckland. Contact me on 021 778 376 for any further questions or to arrange a viewing/test drive etc. Cheers DaveO
