2004 BMW 545i SE 4.4 V8 Automatic 145,000 miles (rising) MOT Feb 2027 4,000 A well-kept BMW 545i SE, with some good history, equipped with the naturally aspirated 4.4 litre N62 V8 and paired with the ZF automatic transmission. The car starts cleanly, drives with confidence, and remains composed on both urban and motorway journeys. Gear changes are smooth, manual mode operates correctly, and the car tracks straight with strong braking performance. No leaks, no dashboard faults, a well maintained V8 saloon. The engine is in great condition for it's age but has a typical issue left to resolve. The interior is notably tidy, with a calm, well-preserved, black-on-black cabin with working ventilated front seats, a rare and desirable option on the E60. All primary electrics operate correctly. The car comes with its original books, two keys, older and more recent receipts, and a clear HPI. It is currently in regular use, so mileage will increase as will maintenance. Highlights N62 V8 Smooth, strong pull, no warning lights. All readings on the computer show a very very healthy engine. ZF 6HP gearbox Normal shift behaviour, no faults, no delays beyond it's age. Manual switching is perfect. Cabin Ventilated seats, clean interior, well-kept trim. Electrics Windows, mirrors, cruise, heated seats all functioning. Exterior Silver Grey metallic, no visible rust, presents well with some recent and light marks to resolve. Tyres Two recent Bridgestone Turanza; remaining tyres legal. MOT Valid until February 2027. Original service book and supporting receipts. Recent MOT-related work -Replacement brake pipes -New antiroll bar link ball joints -Upper suspension arm dust covers replaced Mechanical notes Light smoke on cold pull-away (stem seals) - no other issues Oil consumption normal for age Electrics Airconditioning blower works; no cold air (diagnosis was inconclusive - then the compressor failed :-) ) Head unit intermittent on rough surfaces Summary Well documented, very good car in very good condition - it has been looked after in life and it shows. With recent MOT work addressing key items, the car remains a refined, capable V8 saloon with rare options. I will be sad to sell it, she is great....
