I bought my 2004 525D SE Auto, with Leather, 18" Type 123 alloys, Adaptive Xenons, CD changer etc.... for ?11,995 only 3 weeks ago. Thats a good price, to be honest I prefer the manual box but I couldnt find any at the time. The 2005 will have intake swirl flaps, but I wouldnt let that put me off I'd simply remove them. Word of warning, the MPG around town is shocking in these cars.

I'd buy it,

Bob.
you say thats a good price?
i would sell my 2004 530diesel auto Msport, with 19" 172's pro nav, SMG paddle shift, fingerprint start, 20 way electric memory heated black leather seats, rear heated seats, hi-fi package, re mapped, (no swirl flaps) LCI lights, boot finisher...the list goes on and on...
and i dont think i would get ?11,995

I would have bitten your hand off for that, sadly it seems that the further north you go the dearer thing like cars get. Most likely down to there being less of a population up here, the more customers the cheaper thing are (I might be talking tosh but its just my tuppence worth). My car was a bit steep to be honest, but I wanted it when I drove it. I didnt want to travel 100 miles for a cheaper one, at least not after the last time when i didnt even make it home.

Jason
Something wrong there mate just gone to take a look at mine and it's showing 29.7 average (around town average speed though 23 mph ) and I'm not light on the throttle! Are you sure you're not set to US miles per gallon?
53 plate 530d auto 68k.

Thats a damn good deal m8, where about in the country was it? Was it a private sale?
Bought it from a dealer in Coventry. I live in London.

Been looking at a 5 series for 6/7 months, decided to keep my 323i for a while. Then wrote off the 323i in the snow on black ice. Was forced to get it

www.choicevehicles.com is where I got it from.

Mate I paid ?11,100 for a '54 530D, black with grey leather, with 50K miles on the clock. Came with 19" Schnitzer wheels, and still within it's diamond service pack agreement.

I think you are paying a bit too much there to be fair, but like you said it depends on the milage.

What about service history?

Edit: mines an auto!
How long ago did you buy this car and any pics? Would love to see the wheels on your car. Cheers
