2002 BMW 530i SE (E39)

Highlights

  • One owner from new until 2023
  • Rare Individual specification with champagne Nappa leather
  • Only 45,625 miles from new
  • Dry stored for many years
  • M Sport suspension and fine wood trim


The Appeal

Ask an enthusiast about the 5-Series, and chances are they'll argue the E39 is the top of the crop. These executive saloons simply seemed to get everything right with smart, understated character, top-notch dynamics and solid build quality. It's little wonder they became instant modern classics, and still prove so popular.

This 2002 car boasts rare Individual specs, with Night Blue Metallic paintwork wrapping around an elegant Champagne Nappa leather cabin with special stitching. Having had just one owner from new until September 2023, this 530i has covered only 45,630 miles and has been dry stored for much of its life. The resulting car is a fine ambassador for one of BMW's best loved motors.

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following: 
The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions.. 
We request that a non-refundable fee  be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates. 
This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is’ basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind. 
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing. 
We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence. 
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own  full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle. 
✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection 
or delivery. Importing vehicles may result in additional customs duties and import taxes so it's worth checking beforehand. It is the bidders responsibility to confirm import eligibility prior to purchase.
