When I got it I put everything it needed for it to be in tip top shape.Has after market Alpine CD player.Power everythingBrand new plugs and wires (FULL TUNE UP)Air filter and cabin air filterComplete oil change, and flush and used synthetic with a high mileage additive.Also installed a K&N high performance oil filter.Also installed a magnetic oil plug bolt (this will collect shavings that accure over time, one of the best inventions yet.a FULL coolant system flush, replaced with dexcool orange coolant with a 60/40 ratio, good for cold winters and hot summers, perfect ration guarenteed.Replaced a few moldings inside the vehicle.replaced all brakes and rotors with brand new, high quality slotted and drilled rotors that keep the brakes cool at all times.All fluids have been checked, and this car has 0 leaks, its not leaking ANY fluid at all.Has new trunk hinges so it stays open easierAll important fueses replaces and I installed a new fusible link (a piece of metal that controls all the power in the car)NEW FUEL FILTERBRAND NEW BATTERYNEW THERMOSTATNEW COOLANT TEMP SENSOR THERE ARE VIDEOS AND MORE PICTURES FARTHER BELOW checked all vaccum leaks, there were NONE!Idle control valve cleaned and reinstalled NEW HID LIGHTING, wired in and covered for water protection.Car was POLISHED, GLAZED AND WAXED for a high quality shine, better then what the ydo for a 200 dollar detail.Interior will be cleaned and sparkling. Windows cleaned.New washer fluid sensor and high quality washer fluid used that repels rain, so wipers are very rarely needed.NEW LATITUDE WIPERS INSTALLEDsunroof!!!I also just rubberized and undercoated the bottom of the car, this will deter rust for years INTERIOR:The interior is NEAR MINT, and when I say near mint, I give it a 9.8 out of 10.Grey leather interior,Powr seats, power locks, power windows.All lighting works, all power options workSunroof works and does NOT leakAll guages work perfectly and flawlesslyStereo, heated and all controls work perfect EXTERIOR:The exterior is in great condition. it shines great.There are a couple scratches on the drivers side and around the wheel well (see pictures) you can barely see them but they are there.All new brakes all around with rotors and ceramic pads (high quality, better then OEMNEW HID Lightingpolished, glazed and waxes to insure years of great looking carswindows cleaned perfectlyrims are MINTTires are good through the year, may need new ones come winter because its rear wheel drive, if your in warm climate, I wouldn't worry about themAll exterior lighting works, directionals, brake lights and so onno water leaks ENGINE, DRIVETRAIN, TRANSMISSION, FRAME, OTHER:Engine starts and runs perfect, no unknown noises, idles perfect and runs great, no hesitation, just hit the gas and go.The drivetrain is RWD, moved like a cloudThe transmission shifts perfect everytime. The frame is good, no rot, and no rust.NEW FUEL FILTERA few things to not, The car reads that the brakes are bad, I know exactly why this is, I broke a sensor on the front drivers side brake pad when I was installing them, I may be able to fix this but no guarentee, it need a 10 dollar part and is very easy.It also says check coolant level when you shut the car off, it does NOT say this while it is running, and i asked a few friends of mine who have older BMWs and i was told this is common for it to say this when turning off as the system tends to depressurize. I replaced the coolant snesor anyways just to be sure.The other thing is when you turn on the headlights it says there is a problem with them, this is because i installed HID lighting, the lights work perfect but that message will come on, if you like I can reset the lights to the regular 9006 bulb. Everything to make this car in tip top shape was done, this is a GETIN and GO vehicle. its not the fastest and its not the newest, but its a classic. People love these classic cars, in 2 more years it will be an antique.Its dependable, Iv'e driven newer cars that I am afraid to get behind the wheel to test drive, this one made me feel at ease the second I turned it on.

We will help coordinate a shipping time and provide any help we can to get it shipped, but shipping is the sold responsibility of the buyer. We do NOT provide delivery. We do have a towing company who will deliver within 100 miles of zip 01949. He charges a low rate and if you need quotes we can obtain them for you, just let us know. Also eBay offer shipping quotes above. There is a tab above the auction that says “Shipping” If you click on that it will give you shipping quotes to the registered address you have on file with eBay and where my vehicle is located. Paperwork, Warranty, Car Removal, Storage, Misc If you are having this vehicle shipped, the vehicle needs to not only be paid for, but ALL paperwork needs to be properly filled out and returned to us before we can release the vehicle. We will NOT release a title of the vehicle until it is picked up either by person of tow truck.** Once a vehicle is release to the towing company all liability is transferred to the towing company. Vehicle needs to be picked up from our location within 10 business days after the auction ends. Everyday a car is not picked up a storage fee of 30 dollars a day will be assessed or a fee of 135 dollars per week will be assessed, whichever is less. When a car is charged for storage you are charged daily, meaning once the day begins you are charged for that day, whether you pick it up early in the day or late in the day, we do not prorate. We also consider every day of the week a chargeable day, which means all 7 days of the week are counted, not just business days. *We do not release the title to a vehicle until picked up because if the car is at our facility for an amount of time where storage fees are due, they will need to be collected before release of title. All of our vehicles are sold as-is with no warranties given or implied, unless we state otherwise. Our vehicles are NOT guaranteed to pass inspection, emissions or any other type of tests. We are not saying this will happen, but we don’t guarantee it. We recommend every buyer to have a qualified technician or someone with automotive knowledge to come and inspect the car prior to bidding. Per Massachusetts guidelines and laws, I am unable to sell a vehicle to a Massachusetts resident unless it is sold with a parts-only affidavit. Keep in mind this will NOT effect your ability to register or insure a vehicle, this is simply a signed piece of paper stating it’s a parts vehicle and that’s what it is being sold as, with no guarantee. The buyer will not receive a copy of this paperwork, it is for us only.
