Aphexic 35 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) Hey guys. I've found another project car, so up for sale is my beautiful E39 540i Msport on genuine BBS wheels. This car has an amazing history of maintenance and receipts totalling $25k+ Car has done 188,000kms, this will go up as its my daily. Major things that have been replaced/repaired are: - The tiptronic trans has been rebuilt - $5k receipt - Cooling system has been replaced - $2k receipt ** Timing chain tensioner has been replaced - this is an important one, not many E39's for sale out there that have had this taken care of. - Belts have been done within the past couple of years. It's very tidy inside and out and drives beautifully. The leather is in great condition. Has the factory head unit but has had after market speakers, amp and sub installed, sounds very good. All windows work, sunroof works perfectly and the rear pop up blind works great too. A previous owner has installed an oil catch can and deleted the rear muffler, the car sounds lovely with a few pops and crackles on decel, but not obnoxious. Things that I would look into if I were to keep the car are: - Very slow oil leak - I think this is coming from around where the oil catch can has been installed, if not it's probably a seal. The amount of oil is very little. 3.9k ONO. Test drives are welcome and encouraged. Car is located in Glenfield. --- Note: car will come on BBS wheels in the first image. Cheers.

Aphexic 35 Report post Posted May 30, 2017 I'm after a new car and have just been offered 4.5k as a trade in, if someone wants it and they can give me $5k its theirs, otherwise I'll just be lazy and trade it in. Things to note; -Lately had two coil packs replaced (cyl 5 and 7) -Has a speed wobble at 90ish km's, suspect thrust arm bushings 5k for a car this tidy with such a great maintenance history is a bargain, grab a deal! Would hate to see this car traded in. Cheers guys! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mack10 3 Report post Posted May 31, 2017 I'm disappointed for you that you've been unable to sell this. I have one that I need to sell too as I've bought an E60. I'm not looking forward to it now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aphexic 35 Report post Posted June 1, 2017 I haven't been trying tooooo hard to sell it (it's such a great car to drive and I would really miss it) but it's time to move on now hence the cheap price, can't believe it hasn't sold already! Someone come take it for a test drive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TermiPeteNZ 1318 Report post Posted June 9, 2017 I do like the idea but when I buy another car it needs to be suitable for a 17yr old to be learning in - and a V8 isn't probably the best choice. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For $5K and the condition and maintenance history it is being given away - GLWS Edited June 9, 2017 by treone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
