BMW e39 523i

BMW E39 523i – 1997 – Future Classic – Enthusiast Owned Reluctant sale of my 1997 BMW E39 523i, an increasingly rare and sought-after example of one of BMW’s greatest ever chassis. This is an enthusiast-owned, well-maintained car, not a neglected daily. With just 130,000 miles, it is barely run-in for the legendary M52 straight-six, which is widely regarded as one of BMW’s most reliable and smoothest engines. 🔧 Maintenance & Condition • Extensive work carried out over time • Fully serviced • Engine bay extremely clean and original • Drives beautifully – smooth, tight, and refined as an E39 should • Always maintained properly, not run on a budget 🛞 Originality • All original tyres fitted • Original BMW spare wheel present • Unmodified, factory-correct example • Becoming very hard to find in this condition 🚗 Exterior & Interior • Finished in classic dark blue • Cream leather interior, very clean and well cared for • No tears or abuse – shows how well the car has been looked after • Bodywork in excellent condition for a 1997 car 📄 Details • Year: 1997 • Model: BMW E39 523i • Engine: 2.5L M52 inline-6 • Transmission: Automatic • Mileage: 130,000 miles • Classic insurance • No NCT or tax at present, needs nothing (priced accordingly) ⸻ 🏁 Summary This is a proper E39 for a BMW enthusiast who understands how good these cars are.
