E53 3.0si - SOLD

Post by hennabm » Sat Dec 19, 2020 7:14 pm

September 2002 registered. 197k.
I have owned the car since March 2018 and know the previous 2 owners.
Car is located in Lincoln.

Since I have owned it I have done the following;

OSF door carrier renewed - genuine BMW
OSF external door handle - genuine BMW
Repair BM54 and add streaming bluetooth
Replace battery with genuine BMW AGM
Replace tailgate lock/no plate bar - genuine BMW
Replace memory seat module - genuine BMW
Purchase new key and code to car - genuine BMW
Full service and two minor services from indy BMW agent
Sump gasket replaced
NS engine mount replaced
Transmission oil and filter changed at 180k
NSF CV gaitor replaced
NSF track control arm replaced
air con regas
rear subframe brake pipes replaced
Bonnet badge and wheel badges renewed - genuine BMW
Depo angel eye headlamps fitted
Rear discs, h/brakes shoes and disc pads renewed
Front and rear mudflaps and rubber matting throughout fitted. Original velour matting still available with the car
2 x rear airbags renewed.
air distributor valve renewed
Transfer box oil changed
Oil filter housing gasket renewed
new viscous fan fitted
power steering pipe renewed


I have not spared any expense in maintaining this car, as I needed it reliable. So why, you may ask am I selling it now? Well, I am planning my retirement in the new year and with this being a petrol vehicle, it is a little thirstier than the diesel variants. Ona run expect around 22 - 24mpg.

It is fitted with LPG but I removed the tank to replace the battery and never got round to refitting the gas. All the parts are still there and go with the sale.
The driver's seat bolster is worn and some of the pixels on the dash are missing, but nothing unreadable.

Thanks for the detail and compliment.
Sorry - the E30 is not for sale. I bought it 14 years ago for £70 and hoping to get my money's worth out of it soon!
