I am going overseas and need to sell my family-owned, nique, nd I'm-totally-going-to-miss-this-car 1991 BMW 525i. This is the E34 5-series known for their durability, eliability and looks during the early to mid 1990s. This car is almost 25 years old and its power seats, unroof, indows, ocks(everything electronic) still works as if brand new. Bulletproof 6-cylinder, .5 liter engine gets about 24 MPG on the highway. Has the distinctive low rumble that these older BMWs are known for. Car has 189k miles on it but still drives like you just pulled off the lot. It's been in my family for about 10 years when my dad purchased it without 90k miles on it, efore that it was owned by an older couple in Florida, ence the no rust. I've used this car as a daily driver in NE Ohio for the past 3 years, ept in garage during the winters and it has never let me down. Even gets around in the snow pretty well since it's rear wheel drive.
THE GOOD
1) No leaks, side from the coolant issue detailed below. No oil or tranny fluid under the car. Regular oil changes performed religiously. Like I said in the title, O RUST.
2) Brand new battery, il and filter just changed, adiator replaced about 15k miles ago, park plugs about 8k miles ago, ires still have a lot of life left in them. A/C still blows cold and heat is hot.
3) All electronics inside car still work including sunroof, eated seats, ftermarket JVC CD player installed with aux and USB input. Dash computer shows avg speed, PG, as remaining, tc. Cruise control and heated seats work like a champ.
4) All original decals and tools provided by BMW still in car--wrenches, crewdrivers and even a spark plug remover that's included in a little kit under the trunk lid I still have. Pretty cool. Jack and spare tire also in trunk.
THE BAD:
1) Small coolant leak from the reservoir--I get a low coolant alert on the onboard computer constantly but haven't been able to pinpoint the leak. Replaced the cap on the reservoir and the top inline hose but it's coming from somewhere around where the reservoir meets the radiator. There is always coolant in the reservoir when I check, t's just when I fill it to the appropriate line, t somehow leaks and then I get the low warning. Car never overheats, ust something that's annoying.2) Liner is falling out on the interior in a few spots, othing major but if you have the desire you can replace or fix it.
3) Small crack in rear bumper, ould probably be fixed or painted over if you don't want to replace the whole thing.4)Driver's side rear window will go off track if you roll it down all the way. If you just crack it a few inches it will roll back up fine, otor isn't bad just a pin or piece of plastic holding in the window in it's track snapped off.
There's still a lot of life left in this car and I'll be sad to see it go. Message me with any questions and I'll respond quickly. Buyer is responsible for paying shipping and I'm willing to meet within an hour if you want to pick it up in person.
