Description of 1986 BMW 5-Series |
This is one of the defining vehicles that made us all fall in love with German sedans. In fact, the consignor loved this 1986 BMW 528e so much that he owned it for 30 years! So check out all the details of the kind of fun European classic that also has the kind of history we all want. There was something magical about the lines of this generation 5-Series. It had an understated yet sophisticated look that was absolutely attractive. This example has spent most of its life under garage care. So while it has been used, it also has never been abused. The factory-correct Arctic Blue was given a respray within the last decade, and it has held up well to show off the crisp preserved lines of this Bimmer. The BBS-style factory alloys were even upgraded to gold to match the pinstripe for that added look of premium flair. The 5-Sereis offers good room for passenger front and rear. But because this is a true BMW, they focus all the important pieces around you. This highly original interior boasts some of the era's most comfortable bucket seats, and they are power adjustable to strike the perfect balance for grand touring comfort. The factory wheel engineered to give you a clear view at the full gauge package. Plus, the gear stick is exactly where you always want to rest your right hand. And as a premium vehicle, BMW's engineers expertly worked to make sure that it was luxurious without being distracting. You are always just a short reach away from features like the power windows, power locks, a sunroof, cruise control, and cold factory air conditioning. Plus, the stereo has been upgraded to an AM/FM/CD stereo unit with Bluetooth and an input for your iPod. This is the era of BMW's super-smooth inline-six motors, and this 2.7-liter fuel-injected powerhouse is a gem. The consignor states that this is the original motor. He's had it for nearly the full time, and it has long service document record. So it's not only easy to believe him, but it's also great to see this car so lovingly cared for decades. That why this one remains both strong and smooth. While the 535i model gets more of the classic car glory today, the 528e is an up and comer in the classic scene because it still combines the sporty five-speed action with the well-tuned fully independent suspension. Add in the four-wheel power disc brakes, power steering, newer modern tires, and brand new rear struts (a $1,100 investment alone,) and this one still knows how to deliver The Ultimate Driving Machine. The sale comes with complete with the owner's manual and a comprehensive records file that includes maintenance done under the first owner, too. This is an outstanding classic with an outstanding story. So when it's also offered for an outstanding price, you have to act quickly. Call now! |
