For Sale 1994 Silver BMW 530t Wagon174,000 miles 3.0 liter/ litre V8 engineStrong runner but needs work / TLC I'm confident this vehicle can be driven anywhere it needs to go I LIKE TO TRAVEL SO I AM WILLING TO DELIVER VEHICLE TO ANYWHERE IN THE US FOR A SMALL FEE (BASICALLY COVER MY TRAVEL COSTS). AS LONG AS TERMS AND COSTS ARE AGREED UPON PRIOR TO END OF SALE I've had this vehicle for the past 5 years or so and it is super reliable. This car is still a daily driver and just keeps running. I drove it back and forth from Madison, WI to St. Louis, MO probably 15 times last year. That's about a 350 mile drive each way and never had any problems. The engine runs fine but is leaking a little oil as it needs a valve gasket replaced. Needs new exhaust and sounds pretty growly. It is a V8 but it sounds alot meaner then a BMW should sound. The transmission shifts smoothly and the car still goes down the highway pretty well. The front end is loose as it needs new joints (I think). When you hit a bump it makes a sharp thud and the front wheels shimmy for a second but then straighten themselves. The car has a good radiator as it doesn't overheat. Brakes are good and stop well. They don't pull, drag or squeal. The rims are sharp and the tires all have over 50 % life left. (They are 2 different sets though). The windows all roll down but the front windshield is cracked in 2 places. (It has been like that for about 3 years and isn't growing). The rear door window wiper works and the defrost works as well. All the headlights and turn/brake lights work though the covers on a couple all cracked or broken. Full size spare tire, BMW jack and grocery cover for back of car Factory manual (I think I still have the phone it came with but would have to look around in the basement) Here is a list of what is specifically wrong with the car: Engine leaks a little oil Front end needs new joints Front passenger seat has a bad recliner motor so seat doesn't recline straight back (Drivers seat works perfectly and both still heat) Back seat, passenger's side is pushed down and is stuck in the down position. The hinge is bent and won't go back up. Windshield is cracked Sunroof leaks and just recently stopped opening Dashboard doesn't work except for speedometer and odometer Onboard computer needs to be reset Heater blower motor is broken Exhaust has a hole in it and should be replaced Turn signal/ brake light cover is broken on front driver side and back passenger side. Lights still work Brake light over rear door has been sloppily glued in place. Still works Dent in the back passenger door with surface rusting as well as variety or smaller dents and dings throughout the vehicle. Some scratches with light rust as well Rust in corners of passenger and driver's side door(s) Most of the exterior door trim pieces are missing Rust around the gas cap area as well as the door broke off. (I still have it just need new hinges) Underbody rust Interior has a fair amount of wear, staining and discoloration Radio was recently stolen. They only took the faceplate so their is still the body of a pioneer stereo is the dash I've tried to be a thorough as possible. I love this car and it breaks my heart to sell it, but new baby and a couple other vehicles means its time to go. There is a lot of life left in this car it just needs someone who has the time and know-how and I don't have either. The car needs work, but you can drive it home today as it is and it can still get you anywhere you need to go... Again, I will deliver the vehicle to anywhere in the US for a fee. Contact me and we can discuss it. Let me know if you have any other questions or if you're in the area and want to come by and take a look.
