Michael. 2313 Report post Posted November 17, 2015 It would be a 4.4, maybe non vanos. Those records are always wrong in one or two details. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allanw 1071 Report post Posted November 17, 2015 E39's only had the 4.4. The cc's were probably entered by the dealers on first rego... Just buy it anyway - if for nothing else, to burn that beige and brown interior! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Original Auction http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-957316029.htm He's spent easily 1k on it just reading through the listing...I think maybe he's found some serious problem... transmission maybe Around the 250k mark the v8 e39 all seem to lunch the tranny.
