Description

2001 BMW 530i SE Touring Auto
2 owners from new (same owner last 17 years)
99k miles
Automatic (Tiptronic)
Full service history
Long MOT

Runs and drives exactly how a well-kept M54 should. Engine is smooth, quiet and pulls effortlessly. Gearbox is seamless through all gears with no hesitation. Suspension is soft and composed, proper SE comfort that just glides over rough roads.

This example has clearly been maintained properly and has benefited from recent upkeep including a full service with NGK spark plugs, new MAF sensor, new CCV system and hoses, and a new serpentine belt. It wants for nothing and is ready to be used.

Interior is a standout point. Grey comfort cloth seats are in exceptional condition for age, no rips or sagging. Heated electric memory seats all working as they should. Cabin presents like a time capsule, everything feels solid and well looked after.

Bodywork is very clean overall. Has age related marks as expected for a 2001 car but nothing major or off-putting. Underside is clean with no rust or corrosion. Still holds strong road presence and looks the part.

Good spec example:
Electric heated memory seats
Cruise control
Parking sensors
Factory sat nav
Wood trim interior
Rare sliding/ extendable boot floor

Recent ownership speaks for itself, 17 years with the last keeper is not something you see often. Clearly a well cared for car.

Only minor negatives worth noting:
Typical E39 cluster pixel issue
Small crack on one of the wood trims

Clean, honest example of a proper E39 Touring. Hard to find them like this now, especially with this mileage and ownership history.

No stupid offers! Find me another one in this condition.

Nationwide delivery available at buyers cost.
