NZ BMW 368 Report post Posted June 24, 2017 Nice, I see you've gone for the same interior colour as the E39. Did you trade that or are you hanging onto it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2313 Report post Posted June 24, 2017 Nice. So these have the 3.0L engine? It's really sad they have made the engine vs model labeling even more confusing than ever before. Now it's just a line up figure, higher the numbers, the more you spent Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 540i e39 is yet to be decided. Its still a great car. In one hand its a pity to stay locked up in the garage but i am not sure if i will get any serious money by selling it. Big dilemma.

kiwi535 538 Report post Posted June 24, 2017 yes unfortunately the market for older BMWs is quite small.Even newer ones with higher mileages .I lost HEAPS on my little 120d....but otherwise it is just money sitting there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The quality is still up there with a few hick ups only (plastics seem to be inferior) The technology is overwhelming and you can feel this is a 15 years younger car. The 8speed gearbox and the active steering are the two biggest improvements in my opinion over the e39. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
