2002 Owned from new..Full BMW Service history..Manual Gearbox For Sale

2002 BMW 525i SE

Highlights:
1 owner from new.
Full BMW Service history.
Paperwork history from day 1.
Manual Gearbox.
Private plate included.
Just mot’d so comes with 12 months mot.

WhatCar? Verdict:
Close to perfect; improves on the old Five’s engine and chassis strengths and adds more room, equipment and refinement. Handling and ride and unsurpassed.

Now for more detail:

2. 5 litre 6 cylinder petrol.. naturally aspirated. 192 bhp. Sounds fabulous.

Stunning and rare ‘BLUEWATER’ metallic paint.

Manual gearbox which feels absolutely fabulous and extremely smooth.

Low mileage for a 20 year old vehicle at only 90, 700 miles (this will rise as the vehicle is being enjoyed). That equates to circa 4500 miles per year over its life which is very low.

‘0’ previous owners on the V5C - there certainly aren’t many classic BMW’s left in existence like this. Its 1 and only custodian purchased it brand new from Elms BMW on 24/ 05/ 2002.

In the inch thick folder of paperwork there are:
- 10 mot certificates.
- Service and repair invoices.
- Offers and reminder letters from the BMW dealership.
- A thank you letter for ordering the car from the BMW Sales Executive.

Very much loved and maintained regardless of cost during its life.

The leather BMW wallet contains all the original book backs.

There are the original 2 remote keys plus the additional 2 emergency keys (these come in an original BMW leather key wallet).

A Haynes service and repair manual is also present.

Options specified to the car when new were as follows:
- Bluewater metallic paint.
- Sand Beige leather interior.
- Lumbar support front seats.
- BMW 6 disc cd changer.
- M steering wheel.

The original order form is present showing a total vehicle cost of £28, 741. 35.

This car could now be classed under the umbrella of being a ‘modern classic’…and therefore a great investment. Where else can you find a 1 owner from new E39 5 series with so much history and providence!

This is a perfect vehicle for a collection, for enjoying on sunny weekends, for showing it off at classic cars shows or for even doing European adventures in!

The bodywork has a few minor marks here and there (character we will call it). The interior is in excellent condition and a wonderful place to be.

The alloy wheels are in good condition. The front tyres are Michelin 225/ 55R16 with approx 6mm tread remaining. The rear tyres are Continental with approx 7mm tread remaining.

The original dealership number plates are still fitted.

The glass is all original with the BMW etched markings.

This is THE Ultimate Driving Machine and what German engineering is all about!

You won’t be disappointed.

I would ideally like this vehicle to be purchased and loved by a fellow BMW enthusiast.
