1988 BMW 535i

Recommended Posts

Regrettably up for sale is my e28 535i. After lusting after one of these for years I finally bought one 2 years ago and I have enjoyed it thoroughly ever since. Alas, with a divorce looming over my head and lawyer's fees to pay, I have, with a heavy heart, decided to list her up for sale.

In my ownership I have replaced the factory suspension with Spax Springs and Bilstein shocks in the rear ( I also have a pair of b8 Bilsteins for the front that have been rebuilt but not fitted).

I have serviced the transmission less than 1000kms ago. I have also in my possession a complete e28 Motorsport Kit that I intend to offer to the winning bidder with the sale of the vehicle. It is unpainted and on another vehicle but will be pulled out before the auction ends.  
 
*Freshly serviced
*Transmission Serviced
*Speedo cluster replaced with lower mileage one as old one wasn't working (Was showing 327ks)
*LSD Diff
*Bilstein Shocks
*Spax Springs
*Genuine 2 Piece BBS Style 19  wheels with 225/45/17 inch tyres all round
* Stock Springs available 
*E28 Motorsport Kit included in sale price (unpainted,shown on donor car,will need chrome bumpers back as part of sale) 
*3.5 Litre m30b35 engine
*Automatic Transmission with switchable manual mode 
*Tilt/slide sunroof
*All electrics work 
*No Rust that I know of
*Thermostat and Waterpump Replaced

*Mtech 1 steering wheel and Mtech flares 

Has the odd dent and scratch and clear coat is peeling in places, the bootlid definitely could do with a respray as it seems as it has been badly resprayed before my ownership and cracked. 
All electrics work except the aerial.
The Boot springs don't hold the bootlid up

This is all I can think of at present. I will only be running a week long auction as I intend to sell before Christmas. 

Thank You for looking. Test drives Welcome, Will be sold with new WOF and 6 Months rego (Rego on hold currently) 
Contact me on the number listed below 

PLEASE NOTE : PERSONALIZED PLATE IS NOT FOR SALE WITH VEHICLE UNLESS NEGOTIATED SEPARATELY

 

After 18k ono. Advertised on Trademe but have the right to remove the auction

Previous post was hidden as it didn’t meet the forum rules.

This one does, hence not deleted.

Thanks bud. It really kills  me to sell it. This will be the one that got away for me. I have  wanted one since being a little boy.

Sold it to a 24 year old real estate agent. He loves it. But he bought it less the motorsport kit and I still have the manual conversion parts too. I will be selling them separately if anyone is interested.
