matrox02 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Hey All, I need to sell my Bmw...Sadly.. mainly because its too nice to take on the beach for my moto-x and boating ventures So here I am listing my 520i Indevidual that I have had a m50b25 engine swapped into Running standard everything otherwise, the only mods iv done are a metal thermostat housing , it however has a brand new water pump and thermostat and radiator and runs like a champion, doesnt use any coolant or oil Its Auto 5hp18 box, Nappa Leather seats in red ( really sought after in the american market apparently) and generally in tidy condition, the only faults with the gas struts not holding the bonnet and the boot open and the read left door not locking properly ( intermittent ) and the window is the same on that door, the front bumper does have the bottom cracked, I do have a brand new bumper for it that will come with the car, it just needs to be prepped painted and fitted. Im asking for $3000 for the car, as it would mean im braking even witht he conversion, which I think is reasonablePics: Otherwise other info on Trademe! http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=683955552 Oh and Contact Details:Matthew H ; 09 2788683 / 0226026549 Edited February 5, 2014 by matrox02 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted February 11, 2014 nicely specced too, only the very last of the E34s had airbags both passenger and driver, wider grill on all models, facelift, usually premium audio standard etc. if you were in the market for a 525i this would be the one to get.

Yes indeed, Im a bit sad that I need to sell it, I took the price from 3500 to 3000 and only one persons enquired so far, so im a bit puzzeled as to why no real bites, I also have Pioneer Bluetooth radio in it, its great for streaming music from the phone while also being hands free , leather seats with arm rests right around, Its a bit hard to keep it clean when your works close-ish to a train rail though, dust accumulates on it quick, but I do try and clean it regularly, barley any paint imperfections, only a bit scruffy on the bumpers, and No Cat converters so its got a Great exhaust note on the standard exhaust Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etwenty1 45 Report post Posted March 29, 2014 Some constructive comments because it looks like a nice car - you could improve your TM listing quite a bit TBH, below average pics, crap in the car, main photo taken in front of some rubbish bins. People buy off the pics. If your gonna list it dirty with a bung window and 520i in the title expect offers around $1500. With some new pics and a good groom i'm sure you could get over 2k Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
