I currently own an E34 525 but looking to upgrade to E39 which has always been my aim . I am current reading all post concerning E39 and gathered lots of interesting information. I have singled out the 530i as my next replacement. So far they are difficult to finds and the one advertised in Star for 95K needs lots of attention. Poorly maintained.I have seen one that recently caught my eye. Its a Recon version E39 530i M sport from Japan apparently year of make 2003 and imported in 08. did check up the VIN number - info given Euro spec 3/2001 make Auto Rt Hand drive M54 engine. My question is this - 1) owner asking for about 110K+ as grant says year of make 2003 , but VIN identification says 2001 car- how much is the going rate for such a car currently- need info for basis of bargaining.2). Are the parts for 525, 528, 530 interchangeable. I know from reading posts that suspension setup are different. Otherwise do they differ much.?Will be test driving the car this weekend .Will keep u guys updated. Thanx</p></blockquote><p></p>
