BMW for Sale - Spares or Repair (Timing Chain Snapped) - Sold as Whole Car Only BMW for sale as spares or repair. The engine has suffered a snapped timing chain, so it will need significant work or is ideal for parts. Recently fitted with new brake pads and new tyres, so there are still plenty of valuable parts on the car. The car is otherwise in decent condition for its age, with many good components including body panels, interior, wheels, and electrical parts. Important: The car is for sale as a complete vehicle only. I will not break it for parts or sell individual components.
