Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1985 BMW 525E presents well for its age, featuring a tidy beige cloth interior and a recent MOT. It benefits from a documented service history up to 1997 and recent maintenance, but a Category D insurance loss in 1999 and six previous owners should be considered.

Condition 

6

The car has a well-documented service history up to a point, a recent MOT with no advisories, and is reported to drive well. However, it has had six former keepers, a Category D insurance loss recorded against it, and some wear consistent with its age. The presence of older and more recent invoices suggests ongoing maintenance, but the insurance loss does detract from its condition.

The second generation 5 Series was introduced in 1981 and ran through to 1988, replacing the previous E12 models.

At first, only four‑ and six‑cylinder petrol engines were available, but a diesel option joined the line‑up in 1983.

The E28 also saw the advent of the first M5.

The range continued to 1988 when it was replaced by the E34 5 Series.

This handsome red 1985 example, registered in January 1985, is a 525E automatic, with 2693cc straight‑six engine.

In September, it passed an MoT with no advisories; the current ticket is valid until September 2022.

The current odometer reading is 116,367 miles, and six former keepers are recorded.

The vendor states that the car 'drives very well' and having recently been used for a classic car publication feature, we can confirm that it does perform well and behaves as it should on the road.

The paperwork folder includes the present V5C and a copy of the current MoT.

Previous MoT certificates date from 2012, 2014, 2015 and 2017.
