1997 BMW 540i e39
Name: Derrik
Location: Shenandoah County Va
Means of contact: 540-335-6398 text
Price: $3800
Description: 1997 BMW 540i 6 speed manual 4.4l German v8 138k miles, gray leather interior, wood grain trim, fully loaded only thing missing is heated steering wheel and navigation package. 3rd owner. Bamboo flooring in the trunk, full size spare with 0 miles.
The good: completely overhauled the cooling system, metal impeller water pump, new thermostat, coolant reservoir, radiator, hoses, temperature sensors etc. have spare parts from the refresh since it was done before failure. Water pump has a metal impeller! Have extra brake pad sensors. Valve cover gaskets have been replaced with grommets, valve covers were scrapped and repainted. Only used 93 octane fuel since I've owned it. Fuel pump and regular maintenance has been kept up with. Headlight adjusters have been replaced. Headlights were refinished with 3m.
The bad: CEL is on due to cam shaft position sensors. Drivers door handle broke off. Rear tires are about 1/4 tread.
Leaks a few drips of coolant every so often from the radiator inlet.
For what it is it's a well maintained car. Bought a newer vehicle for long hauls so I'm in the market for a truck. Car is being parked for the time being and mileage will only go up with the occasional drive around the neighborhood. All trades are welcome. No Asian import cars. Interested in a Toyota pickup early 90's model 4wd or Tacomas. But open to full size trucks too. Any model jeep is welcome also. Seriously any offers is welcome. Worst I'll say is no thanks. Text is the best means of contact.
Can get more pictures faster that way.
