____________________________________
Produced in the 1980s, the BMW 5 Series E28 perfectly embodies the saloons of this generation: taut lines, rear-wheel drive and typical BMW presentation. The 524 td features a 2. 4-litre turbodiesel straight-six with 115 bhp, paired here with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
This October 1986 example stands out above all for its excellent external condition. Its Bronzitbeige Metallic finish, combined with the original BMW mesh alloy wheels, gives it an original configuration, particularly representative of its era. The bodywork underwent extensive restoration followed by a complete respray in February 2023.

Vehicle condition:
The bodywork is clearly one of the strong points of this 524 td. The paint looks particularly good and the external condition is remarkable for an E28 of this age and mileage.
The interior is more original and shows the marks of time you'd expect on a car nearly 40 years old. The trim remains generally well preserved, whilst the dashboard notably shows several cracks.
Mechanically, the car runs very well and proves particularly pleasant to drive.
Favourable MOT (11/ 09/ 2026).
