With only 131 000 km on the clock this is a super clean example of one of the ultimate M driving machines.
Want a BMW sedan with a 300km/h top speed? A car made only in manual with a high revving naturally aspirated 4.9 litre V8? Read on!

This car has always been enthusiast owned and comes with a pile of past work invoices.

The car has full service history and is in excellent mechanical condition - it had a full BMW Quality Check at Auto Atlantic BMW at the beginning of 2016 and had both the minor issues picked up totally resolved with OEM BMW parts.
It has all the tools in the kit, brand new OEM spare key and a full set of Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres (245 front, 275 rear) with approx. 1000 kms on them. The car has all its manuals & service book in a neat OEM BMW M leather folder.
The car is stock except for a Powerflow free flow exhaust.
It sounds great and doesn't drone - I would have changed it if was annoying. I usually prefer 100% stock cars but I think exahust is great. Plus it means sometimes you set off the alarms of parked cars by just driving past ;)

The interior is very clean - everything works perfectly, even the notorious E39 cup holders. Electric seat & wheel adjustment, sunroof, automatic rear blind, side mirror folding, aircon, etc. are all 100%. The car has recently had new OEM steering wheel, shift boot and handbrake cover installed - these really make the cabin feel brand new. The only cabin issue is the "broken pixel" where parts of the info display under the instrument cluster get difficult to read. Apparently this is an easy DIY fix where you just replace a corroded connector, but I haven't got round to doing this.

We can chat on email to establish if you're a serious buyer - and if you are then we can arrange for you to see the car, take as much time as you'd like to inspect it, hear a cold start and let me take you for a drive.

Note on Xenons: this car is obviously pre- the 2001 facelift. Personally I prefer this look but a lot of people want the post-facelift angel eyes look. Since this car has xenons it's compatible with the angle eyes - you would just need to make some fitting adjustments & code the car to work with them correctly. There's plenty info online about doing this upgrade.
