Extremely Nice 1985 Bmw 524td 524 Td. New Paint, Tires, Brakes, Battery, Alterna on 2040-cars
Queen Creek, Arizona, United States
I am selling a 1985 BMW 524td. I am the second owner. All service has been done at Auto Europa in Phoenix. The previous owner and myself have been very meticulous in taking care of this vehicle. NADA vehicle guide gives this vehicle a High value of $6875, Low Value $3625 and an Average Value of $5050. I just saw one sell with lower miles on ebay for $8350. The vehicle is in excellent condition inside and out and runs amazing. The ac is freezing cold and the heater works. I hate to let this vehicle go.
I recently had the entire vehicle painted with high quality dupont paints and clear coat in 2011. It should last for years. I just had all the brakes and rotors replaced as well as a brand new battery an alternator, new tires, steering linkage, and had all the fluids changed. I have a list of other stuff I have done over the years that I can give you upon looking at the vehicle. Over all this vehicle runs extremely well and being a diesel the engine will last many more years. I had a minor accident in 2011 and had to replace the front bumper and drivers fender. The exterior of the vehicle looks great and you could never tell. I have a clean and clear title. The interior looks amazing especially for the age of the vehicle. I always had sheep skin covers on the seats that I just took them off to sell. The arm rest have some tears in the leather and there is a small tear in the drivers seat. The odometer reads 211077 but stopped working at the end of 2008. I would guess that actual miles are around 240,000-250,000. I recently replaced the gears on the odometer and it works intermittently. The speedometer does the same. I believe there is a short or the speedo sensor needs replacement. This would be a great vehicle for anyone that loves these rare diesel BMW's (only 400 imported in the usa) or a great first car for a teenager. I tried to cover as much info as I could. Please email me with any questions. I have a carfax available. VIN #WBADB2402F0530638 On Dec-30-13 at 14:33:29 PST, seller added the following information: The heater works great but only through the defrost vents. I think the blend door may need replacement. The paint is still in excellent condition except there is some chipping on the back windows chrome (as seen in pictures) and a some minor chipping on the drivers door trim. I do have dark tint all the way around and the tail lights and blinker lights have been smoked. I do have the front fog lights but didn't install them. Like I said the car runs great but does leak oil like you would expect from a 1985 diesel, but nothing extreme. A small section of the carpet around the front speakers was cut out when I bought it (seen in pictures). |

BMW considering North American engine plant?
Fri, 13 Dec 2013BMW may be set to expand its US operations with a new engine plant, Bloomberg reports. The Bavarian automaker already has its Spartanburg, SC factory which builds the company's X3, X5 and X6 crossovers. According to the story, Mexico is also under consideration for the BMW engine factory, with the report claiming a final decision will be made in 2014.
"Establishing local motor manufacturing abroad is more complex than assembling cars, but it's a logical step for them to eventually start making engines in markets where they're expanding vehicle production," Juergen Pieper, an analyst for Bankhaus Metzler tells Bloomberg. Building engines in the US or Mexico would save BMW from having to ship engines for some of its most popular models across the Atlantic.
BMW, for its part, hasn't said anything concrete. Spokesman Mathias Schmidt is quoted in the story saying, "As part of our long-term growth strategy, we're frequently looking at different countries for possible locations of future production facilities. No decisions have been made yet, though, for an additional plant."
Rolls-Royce sketching out SUV for possible 'late 2017' release
Wed, 14 May 2014With each new story on the Rolls-Royce SUV, the Goodwood automaker comes off as more at ease with their reluctantly birthed yet necessary sport ute. Company design chief Giles Taylor told Autocar that his team is still "sketching to assess the viability of the concept," which to ours ears means they're trying to figure out if such a beast is even possible within the confines of the brand. If it is, Taylor says it will be "a shooting brake, not a crossover with a sloping roof. A proper SUV."
A different company source, unnamed, seems confident that Taylor's team will figure it out, telling the magazine it would start at 200,000 pounds ($335K US). However, that same source said the vehicle will be "a kind of Mercedes-GLK-plus-plus," which is a baffling description in several ways. More reasonable is the speculation that it will ride on Ghost, not Phantom, architecture and make its debut sometime around late 2017.
That Ghost platform is expected to take cues from the carbon, aluminum and steel bones that supported the BMW Vision Future Luxury concept shown at the Beijing Motor Show and destined for the 9 Series. Some of those tricks will also go into the next-generation Phantom, which Autocar says will come in 2017 and not 2020.
2015 BMW M3 Sedan, M4 Coupe are officially revealed [w/video]
Wed, 11 Dec 2013
The new 3.0-liter inline-six makes 425 turbocharged horsepower from 5500 rpm all the way up to 7300 rpm.
BMW has announced the 2015 M3 Sedan and M4 Coupe, high-performance versions of the new 3 Series and 4 Series that launched this year. The new Ms have stirred controversy in a variety of ways, but one must remember that the M cars traditionally don't follow a specific mold.
