1998 BMW 540i -Richmond
1998 bmw 540i auto 111,900 miles, sport wheels and its in very good condition.
New front tires (michelin, rears are 1/2 tread michelins), New catalytic converters, new pass side primary oxygen sensor, new intake gasket, new "hooter" valve (aka a fancy PCV valve), new spark plugs, one new coil, New synthetic oil change, new wiper inserts, new bmw roundel on hood, new battery. Recent front and rear brakes (at 80%), recent raditor. 10/10 inspection
Couple 'flaws', ding on drivers door in front of the door handle... dent wizard may be able to do something with it. Trim under passenger side headlight has broken tab, driver seat adjuster missing button, though it works fine.
Runs great and drives awsome, it was a second car to me that I havent driven much since I did all the work to it... and my house projects are going too far into fall/winter. Everything works and all the maint has been done so there isnt much upkeep at all, just jump in and drive!
6750 obo cash only, Please only contact me if you are serious and have money. Dont waste my time and I wont waste yours!

Re: 1998 BMW 540i -Richmond
The car was purchased by the prev owner from bmw of richmond as a "bmw certified used car" which have rediculous checklists (they can only have certain brand tires on them and they have to be 7/32ths of tread before they hit the lot, etc)
The rest of the work that is new was done by me, a EX-bmw tech...
If I'm correct, you can take the vin number to a local dealer and they can look up what they have done in the vehicles lifetime.
But, even with that said... The only thing I havent done is replaced the cabin filters (because they werent really dirty at all) to bring it all up on the maint side. I actually replaced the oil and filter just because it was a year old with 2k miles on it.
