Cheap cheap :thumbs:

Wow! And it's a proper manual too! Not a sportpack, but still a brilliant price for the mileage!! Maybe only thing that's a bit of a put off is, "Company maintained car"...

And low mileage.

Heyyyyy....what's wrong with auto?

Some say real drivers cars are manual only. They also used to say that real performance comes from petrol only and that the only way to have a BMW motor is in NA form - none of that turbocharging cr@p .... don't worry, they're all a dying breed :rollsmile:

Personally prefer manuals, nothing really against autos as such - was actually extremely impressed with the automatic gearbox on an E90 320d that I had for a day, and of course the new automatic gearbox on the new F30!! But, most of the 5 Series seen on gumtree etc are automatic of course, so finding a manual 530d for instance is very rare. These days manual gearboxes are already becoming an endangered species!!

If that price is right, and the car is as stated.... you need to buy this thing... today....

Well, if it was near to me I would be looking at it pronto!! :thumbs:

 

[zaleonardz]

I paid slightly less then that for mine, but triple the km's...

Honestly, for that kind of money, this is the best ride your going to get...

 

[Karthik]

That's a freaken good buy :thumbs:

 

[frikkieh]

Wondering if I can swop my Toyota for this one? :joy:
Looks like a very good deal...

 

[Whacko]

I don't trust those km's?? :fencelook:

 

[zaleonardz]

I too have a problem with the km's

The price is indicative of the year and model, but not at those super low km's, I smell a pidgeon...

 

[Philip Foglar]

Depends! My car is roughly the same age, and when I bought practically 2 years ago it only had 46k km on the clock! And it does say company maintained car - so maybe only used a few times during a working week...

 

[zaleonardz]

Im taking offers on my E46 318

 

[abmi0000]

The last service whilst in MPlan should iron out the suspicion

 

[P1000]

I'm busy pretending I never saw this...

Otherwise I'd be on the verge of flying down to pick it up.

I agree with you. Also look at the rims. They are the 16" that came with the face-lifted E39 525i. Something is fishy about it. :nonono:

I agree with you. Also look at the rims. They are 16" that came with 2nd generation E39 525i. Something is fishy about it. :nonono:

I wont be to worried about the rims, rims gets swopped out all the time.
Think a quick call to BMW will be able to verify the kms. Seen a lot of low mileage cars lately.
