Description

Welcome to this absolute hero of a BMW [E34] 5 Series, just two previous owners and the last owner since it was 18 months old! Still wearing its original Cooper BMW number plates and rear window sticker, this very special example is so complete, it even has the original key ring, torch and tool kit! Indeed this is not a low mileage car, nor is it one of the bigger engine'd models, however it also isn't £10k - £20k! It is a highly affordable, very smart and very original 1995 BMW that looks totally exceptional for its 29 years on the road, in fact the 15th August next year will mark its 30th birthday! Thirteen years ago it sustained some minor damage which was professionally repaired but because the invoice superseded the value of the car at the time (which was negligible with it just being a 14 year old car and not yet having modern classic status), the insurer did record it as a category C. As a business, usually we don't buy recorded cars but as it was so long ago, and the owner kept it for so many years afterwards, we were able to forgive it and put it down to the tapestry of its history. Modern classics have become super cool to own, with even a younger demographic now favouring driving an interesting car, with character, owned outright! The mindset of needing the latest modern car, heavy, saturated with technology and suffering crippling depreciation, is surely less rewarding. In terms of the environment, owning a car for many years and looking after it is surely more friendly to the planet than the undertaking of manufacturing millions of new cars including the horrific era of lithium farming for electric cars. Where will some of those cars be in three decades? Definitely not in the condition of this BMW 520i SE, if on the road at all!!! Let's see how environmentalists feel about the amount of battery cars being scrapped in years to come and how will that even work? This classic BMW is presented with HPi certificate, MOT until 06/04/2025, all keys, stamped service book and history file.
