Hi what are the date codes on the tires? I could see 2018 on the continentals but couldn't make it out on the Toyos.
Nice E39! There is a 2018 service invoice showing an estimate for replacing the upper and lower control arms. I apologize if I missed it, but is there another invoice showing the work was done?
Thanks - good luck with your auction.
amor1064 If we do not have,i will order a new one for you
Nice looking 540. It appears the floor mats are present for each passenger except the driver? Do you have the matching drivers floor mat in the trunk or elsewhere?
TB12.Good morning There is no rust on the car.Everything works We just had the AC serviced We have all records from the original owner We have no problem at all getting a pre purchase inspection
@redram Thank you, the correction was made.
@Pcarmarket - you may wish to correct the Model under Vehicle Details. This is a 540i not a 520i.
I live in Fla. sold my 2001(I loved it) in 2007,it was-always garaged, rust slowly eating undercarriage, around windowsills, rockers, exhaust etc. Sold it,THIS a beauty but 2001-20024 is 23 years in harsh Florida ocean environments for car longevity. You’re a professional business, please show ANY or ALL rust problems. Computer pixels all working? Last ac service?Can you name who maintained? Smoke free car, important?Last clutch work?Get better carfax with full details on Frontal Crash( seems a90 day repair!).Tire depth? Tire pix? Are you willing to an independent PPI done At my expense? Paint meters? I know it’s not your average HIGHEND/FANCY car for the elite but, better info is better for buyers and dealer reputation, it’s important to car enthusiasts looking for their dream car. I’m a buyer
