1985 BMW 535i Base Sedan 4-Door 3.5L

1985 BMW 5-Series Base Sedan 4-Door Description

UP FOR BID AT AT NO RESERVE I HAVE THIS 1985 BMW 535i. CLEAN TITLE WITH CLEAR CARFAX AND NO ACCIDENT HISTORY. 150K MILES ON THE CLUSTER. I PURCHASED THIS E28 FROM AN AUCTION IN GEORGIA WITH INTENTIONS OF FIXING IT UP AND TURNING IT INTO MY DAILY DRIVER, PLANS CHANGED AND I NEED TO SELL IT. ORIGINAL CONDITION. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES, THE BODY IS IN GOOD CONDITION - WITH EXCEPTION OF SOME SMALL RUST BUBBLES ON THE BOTTOM REAR RIGHT DOOR AND BOTTOM REAR LEFT C-PILLAR, NEXT TO THE REAR GLASS (LESS THAT HALF AN INCH WIDE) - WHERE WATER LEAKS INTO THE TRUNK. THE REST OF THE BODY IS IN GREAT SHAPE. PAINT IS HOLDING UP GOOD ON MOST OF THE BODY PANELS, BUT THE CLEAR COAT ON THE HOOD, ROOF AND TRUNK ARE PEELING OFF. INTERIOR DOES HAVE SOME WEAR AND TEAR FROM THE YEARS AS YOU WOULD EXPECT. DASH PANEL HAS A CRACK ABOVE THE TOP RIGHT OF THE CLUSTER. POWER SEATS WORK. A/C TURNS ON AND BLOWS STRONG, BUT IS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR - MIGHT JUST NEED TO BE CHARGED.. SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER AND ODOMETER ARE NOT READING CORRECTLY - COULD BE THE GEARS INSIDE THE CLUSTER THAT ARE WORN. WINDOWS DO NOT WORK - COULD BE A FUSE/RELAY. SUNROOF WORKS. MOST OF THE ELECTRONIC ISSUES COULD BE TO LOSE WIRES. I BELIEVE THE CAR SAT FOR A LONG TIME, BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET IS STARTED VERY EASILY.ENGINE STARTS RIGHT UP AND IS RUNS GOOD - RAN IT FOR OVER 2 HOURS TO MAKE SURE IT RAND WITHOUT ANY ISSUES AND IT DID JUST THAT. ALTERNATOR IN CHARGING. FAN IS WORKING. REPLACED FUEL PUMP AND CLEANED MASS AIR FLOW METER -ADDITIONAL FUEL PUMP AND MASS AIR FLOW METER INCLUDED IN SALE. ENGINE DOES HAVE AN OIL LEAK - HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO TRACE IT. TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GOOD WITH NO SLIPS. ALL FLUIDS HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND TOPPED OFF. SUSPENSION FEELS GOOD. BRAKES ARE A BIT SPONGY. TIRES ARE GOOD WITH LOTS OF THREAD LEFT IN THEM. WHEELS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE. UNDERCARRIAGE IS CLEAN AND RUST-FREE.NEEDS A NEW BATTERY. NEEDS A MUFFLER. NEEDS A TUNE UP.
AS YOU CAN SEE FROM MY DESCRIPTION, THIS E28 NEEDS SOME TLC AND A BIT OF MECHANICAL WORK, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS ARE ALL THERE - WHICH ARE THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION.I RECOMMEND TO HAVE THE CAR PICKED UP AND TRANSPORTER ON A TRAILER/FLAT BED OVER TO IT'S NEW DESTINATION.THE CAR DOES RUN AND DRIVE AS IT IS RIGHT NOW, BUT THE BRAKES DO NEED TO BE SERVICED PRIOR TO DRIVING IT ON PUBLIC ROADS.
WITH JUST A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY, THIS BEEMER CAN BECOME A GREAT DAILY DRIVER.
