    Default ::.. CARFAX REQUEST and general comments

    1992 525i, auto (ugh), 210k
    Full OBC, original cassette, no power seats, heated seats
    Electrics work, driveline/engine unknown yet
    Single owner, blue ext, two tone int (!)
    No visible body deformation, just corner rust and ugly temp scratch repaint
    Owned by elderly gentleman

    Priced around $4k CAD

    Only thing that worries me is why the headlamp switch is ON, ignition OFF, but no lights are on? I thought at least parking lamps would be on?

    Yeah, exterior is so-so. Interior is great.

    the rust is pretty normal for a toronto car i guess...
    repairable, but I sold my 540 in great shape for 7k...

    so 4k for that seems too much.

    my interior was as good or better and it had a rebuilt tranny and full AC redo.


    If I remember right, my headlight switch could be left on and no lights would remain when you pulled the key (unless u were set in parking lamp mode, not headlight.)

    Could be a daytime running light option, I say: IT IS NORMAL!!

    But the car is overpriced unless the maintenance is perfectttttt (based solely on the appearance of the car, I doubt it is!)

    Keep us updated, good luck. (you should have taken mine )

    $$ is an issue when getting married soon heh. I'd love to have taken yours or angrypancakes! I may be able to get this fellow down to the low 3s or so. Then i'd be able to work on it and flip it to an enthusiast

    just make sure you don't have to fork out 3k of parts to get it right!

    Maintenance records? slow to shift from D to R or anything like that?
