I've owned this 530d since 2000 and it has been all over France and Spain without Zero problems. I do keep up to date with anything needed and to show you that, I have recently put a new battery on it together with a new crank pulley costing over 1000 pounds because the battery warning light came on affecting the power steering and air con functions. As you see in the pictures the compuer screens confirm what I say however, the light bulb and particulate warning are due to a blip in the system and not actual faults. The car has been great and my love for the model has driven to buy a slighter new model with much less mileage. Everyting on the car works, ice cold aircon, electric windows, good tyres it's all OK. MPG averages the early 30's and can be as high as 40 on a run. The bodywork is sound however as the pictures show, the lacquer is failing in places but allowing for the mileage and age of the car, I think you have to be happy with it's overall presentation. The car has a towbar and electrics. I will honestly any questions about the car you may like to ask.
