FS: BMW 540i Executive 1998

[Craysus]

1998 BMW 540i Executive
4.5 v8 with 5 speed Steptronic Auto.
132,000kms
In great condition all over, creme leather interior in great condition, factory TV in the dash, all things work internally, all electrics work great no issues on any component!
Engine runs like a dream, growls along the road..super smooth and comfy, no squeeks / rattles or dodginess.

I have recently replaced radiator hoses, rocker cover gaskets, iridium plugs, a few other minor hoses etc in the engine bay to fix ANY problems..
Car drives exceptionally well, and after polishing it I was surprised myself...it actually looks damn good lol.. (I bought it from a dealer who had a dodgy detail performed...and I had never fully detailed it myself..)
My apologies for the dodgy car mats, but i never got around to getting genuines from BMW..The carpet is in 90% condition and would have 99% of marks come out with a simple steam clean.
Only selling as I am buying a larger car (Falcon G6eT on a novated lease through work)

Location is in Sydney - North Shore.
Contact via PM on here preferred.
Price $15,000 (Will be advertised on Carsales for $16,000 in a few days)

Price Reduced...$14000!

[sledgie]

One of my favourite cars! And at the right price...focus Steve, focus! Put money into cash burning racing instead...seriously though, best of luck, will go in no time at all.

I hate trying to sell a nice car, make sure you give the tyre kickers the FO before they even ask to test drive.

When I was selling my GTR this guy was driving like a maniac in 1st and 2nd, I told him to pull over, said something was wrong, when he hopped out I jumped in the drivers seat, told him to fuck off and left him there, I guess he walked home because I didn't see him ever again lol.

Good luck with your sale, car looks clean!

I've driven this car (Thanks Sandy!)

No squeaks, rattles, anything untoward at all.

It certainly exceeded my expectations, and I could live with it as a daily, easily..
