e39 530i Touring - closing (now Jun 27th) on trademe

Recommended Posts

Hi folks,

I'm selling my e39 530i Touring with 163K on the clock.    Mechanically in good order.  I can honestly say the body is in above average condition compared to every other e39 I've seen.  Motor and transmission are smooth and silky.  Had regular oil and filter changes ahead of recommended schedule.  Video of running engine and a short drive:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_tcXiPwBQI https://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=2188542959

Reserve at $4,500.

Are the boot struts difficult to re-gas or replace?

The boot struts are a nightmare to replace. The ones that open the glass- which is what Gaz is thinking of- are trivial.

Okay guys.  Feedback taken.  I've ordered all four struts from Schmiedmann.com and the car will come with a tailgate and glass door that will for many years not land on your head.

Also will have a new 6 month warranted 850cca battery.  I can't think of anything else the car is missing or wanting now.  Also will put a new radio antenna on the roof as apparently the existing one was had it (I never listen to radio so never knew).

All this for 4,500.  Fair price?
