Description
For sale is my BMW 530d xDrive M Sport Touring with the excellent B57 3.0 diesel engine and xDrive system.
Anyone who knows BMW engines will understand why I specifically looked for the B57 3.0 diesel. In my opinion, it is one of the best modern BMW diesel engines strong, smooth, powerful and very reliable when looked after properly.
I spent a long time looking specifically for this exact specification: 530d, B57 engine, xDrive, Touring, this exterior colour and the light interior. It is not an easy combination to find.
The car is recorded as Category N due to previous non-structural damage. I bought it for myself from Copart and had it repaired using BMW parts. I work with cars myself, so this was not bought to quickly sell on it has been my personal daily car and I have looked after it properly. I also have a number of BMW receipts/invoices available.
The car is mechanically sound and drives very well. It is a proper 3.0 diesel xDrive Touring: powerful, comfortable, economical and ideal for long motorway journeys.
AutoTrader suggested a retail price of around 15,300, but I have priced the car at 13,500 to reflect the Cat N history and the small cosmetic items that would benefit from attention.
Known points to mention:
Category N recorded vehicle due to previous non-structural damage.
Small scuff/mark on the rear bumper. The car was parked outside my house and appears to have been lightly touched, likely by a delivery driver.
Rear bumper could benefit from paint/touch-up, mainly normal estate car boot-use marks.
Alloy wheels would benefit from refurbishment.
Small stone chips on the front bumper, normal for the age and mileage.
Very small stone chip on the windscreen. It is not critical and should not affect MOT.
Minor age-related interior/cosmetic marks.
The tyres are all in good condition, as shown in the photos.
Fuel economy has been excellent for a 3.0 xDrive car. I normally get around 39.4 mpg in town and around 50 mpg on motorway driving.
MOT is valid until 15 July 2026. I can also arrange a fresh MOT if required.
Private plate is not included in the sale.
The car is priced fairly and the price already reflects the Cat N history and the cosmetic points mentioned above. I am not looking for offers below the asking price. Please do not waste your time or mine with low offers.
I am only selling because I have a large upcoming purchase and, honestly, I would rather keep the car. It is a fantastic 3.0 diesel xDrive Touring comfortabl
