Non-smoker ownership. MECHANICAL CONDITION: Runs and drives great! I wouldn’t hesitate to drive it across the country and backJust passed MA state inspectionNew radiator, power steering pump, alternator and serpentine beltTires, brakes and clutch all in good shapeCar came with fifteen years’ worth of service and repair records (see photos) HISTORY: My husband is an experienced mechanic and an automotive technology instructor at a trade school; when he was offered this car by its long-term owner, he bought it for me. It’s a wonderful car and it drives really nicely, but I’m eight months pregnant and I have no desire to drive a manual-shift car. I also like sitting up higher, like in my Toyota SUV. Sometimes my husband thinks with his heart a little too much and, in an effort to be sweet, he buys me things I really don’t really need. Because we’re expecting our first child soon, I’ve decided to sell the nice BMW he bought me so we can put the money toward upcoming baby expenses. If you want to know more about the car, or to see/drive it, call my husband, Brian. At 2O3-927-O334.
