AI Listing Summary
This 1997 BMW 540i is a rare find with its factory manual V8 engine and sought-after Montreal blue color. Having been owned by the current keeper for 18 years and boasting a comprehensive service history, this well-maintained example with optional extras is likely to attract enthusiasts.
Condition
7
The car is described as being in good running order with some optional extras. It has some miles, 110,000, but has been well maintained with service history. There is no mention of any damage, so assuming slight wear visible in paint, interior, or wheels. So I have rated it as a 7.
