Vehicle Detail
Personal Car: I have driven this car from new to the present. Until recently, I still drove it from time to time. But, not a lot, so it has exceptionally low mileage for a car of this model year. Only a little over 60K miles!!! Has a recent state inspection, oil change, good Michelin tires and is very smooth driving. It has a sunroof, tape player and multi-CD player in trunk. Very nice leather interior. Working AC. Driver airbag. No significant body damage. Small door ding on driver's door. BUT, this car does have problems that need fixing, which is why I am starting bidding it at only $699. This is less than the engine alone is worth with such low mileage. Main problems: (1) There is a problem inside the transmission. The symptom is that the gear shift control does not work. Cannot change gears - it's just locked in Drive. My BMW shop has checked this problem out from the outside, but without tearing the transmission apart, does not know what the problem is. Clearly the transmaission must be fixed for the car to be useful. I have driven it a very limited amount the way it is now, with the transmission more or less locked in drive gear, but anyone who buys this car needs to have the transmission fixed. (2) The paint is the BMW metallic green. Very nice looking color. And, looks pretty good in the photos. Driveable the way it is. But, to have a really sharp looking car, you would need to repaint it. (3) The radio has been replaced in recent years, but is not working now. The display requesting the security code comes on, locking out the radio. But I don't have the code anymore. Working, used BMW radios can usually be bought on eBay at reasonable prices. PLEASE NOTE: This car is being sold AS IS, WHERE IS! No warranties are being made. I own it outright, so you bring a cashiers check or cash and I will sign over the title. You can ask me questions by calling me at 972-239-8198 or emailing me through the eBay questions link. Please ask all questions before bidding. This is a relisting, because the previous high bidder didn't take care to understand what he was bidding on.
