Clean And Ready To Drive on 2040-cars
Brighton, Massachusetts, United States
This vehicle is being sold AS IS. I am moving into the city and I do not need a vehicle. I hope this SAV brings the next owner as much joy as it has to me! I believe I am the 3rd (4th if you count the dealer for a day they had it) owner of this vehicle. The owner before me bought this vehicle at 50,000 miles and I bought it from him at roughly 147xxx miles. Since purchasing this vehicle 6 months ago I have put over 6,000 miles on it and haven't had any issues! Other than normal maintenance requirements such as oil changes, brakes and rotor replacement, all wheel alignment, and a tune up , I haven't had any serious costly problems. Some minor things I did replace that haven't been an issue since, are upper/lower radiator hoses + water pump, right wheel bearing, and a brake light bulb replacement. I have all records that show what has been done since I owned it, as well as some documentation from the previous owner. Its a non smoking vehicle and always has been. New certified BMW floor mats were replaced when I bought this vehicle and the carpet underneath is virtually brand new. The engine runs very strong and shows no signs of slowing down. At 153k miles its just breaking in! BMW owners take care and maintain there vehicles and its no secret these engines last a lifetime.
This vehicle is ready to drive today! I live in MA and we have one of the most strict vehicle inspections in the country and this passed with flying colors. No check engine lights, all features work beautifully, exterior and interior are in above average condition. Many people look at it and think its a 2006 model because it looks that good! Other than wear and tear its a beautiful vehicle that has been taken care of throughout the years. Upgrades: Vehicle has a tow package. I have not towed anything and the owner before me said he towed his small tug boat (2200 lbs) once a summer to his lake house. This SAV towing capacity is rated for 5000 lbs. With minimal towing and weight far beneath its limit, its safe to say the engine was never under stress. Vehicle comes equipped with an aftermarket navigation system, premium sound with a subwoofer that is tuned to all genres of music from country to classical and everything in between. Blutooth, and iphone compatable with easy synchronization to any and all phones. ISSUES: Only known issue is the driver side front CV boot has ripped and needs to be replaced. (roughly $150) or wait until the axle goes which I was priced out to be roughly ($300) but that wont need to be replaced for some time.(4-6 months) Serious Bidders Only Please feel free to ask me any questions as I will do my best to answer as honest as I can. |

BMW planning to stretch i3 into i5 family hauler?
Sat, 30 Nov 2013If you're sweet on the new BMW i3 but wish it had more space to carry people and stuff, we've got good news for you. According to Autocar, BMW is planning on stretching the platform that underpins the i3 to create a new model, expected to be called i5.
The stretch job would add an extra four inches of legroom in the back and another six inches of rear overhang to the benefit of cargo space. The result would create a vehicle longer than the current Mini Countryman - although the next Countryman is likely to be even larger. As Autocar points out, the process of extending the i3's composte passenger cell likely wouldn't be as difficult or cost-intensive as lengthening a conventional metal chassis, although the rear doors would need to be re-engineered.
Whether the resulting vehicle would more closely resemble a hatchback, wagon, minivan or something in between remains to be seen, however BMW is said to have already registered the nameplates i1 through i8, signalling that the possibility is at least there to add more members to its new EV family.
BMW calling in 76k vehicles over airbag issues
Mon, 16 Dec 2013Vehicles these days are typically fitted with a mat in the front passenger seat that determines whether that airbag needs to be activated in the event of a collision and how it should deploy. But that system doesn't always work, as Mercedes recently found in its SL-Class roadster and as Suzuki did before it with the Grand Vitara and SX4 crossovers. Now a crop of BMW vehicles have befallen the same issue, prompting the Bavarian automaker to cooperate with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall for the vehicles in question.
The problem affects precisely 76,565 vehicles, including certain the 3 Series (sedan and wagon), 5 Series, 7 Series and X5 crossover families spanning the 2006 and 2007 model years and fitted with a certain type of seat. However, since the parts to repair the problematic components are not currently available, as you can see from the recall notice below, it won't be until March 2014 when local dealers will be able to resolve the issue.
BMW invests in carbon fiber for use beyond i and M models
Tue, 13 May 2014The immense amount of resources BMW has poured into its i brand program hasn't stopped, and recent developments indicate it's likely to pay off for BMW and BMW buyers outside the i brand. The i8 has already sold out its first year run, the i3 racked up 10,000 orders before it even went on sale and is already the subject of public discussion about being stretched into an i5, and a new investment in carbon fiber production has the automaker talking about CFRP use in non-i and non-M models.
BMW and SGL Group got together to form SGL Automotive Carbon Fibers (ACF), and the joint venture produces all of the CFRP for the i3 and i8 on two production lines at its plant in Moses Lake, Washington. After already investing $100 million to increase capacity, BMW has announced that another $200 million will add four more production lines, tripling production from 3,000 tons per year to 9,000 tons. When the expansion is complete in 2015, BMW says the Moses Lake facility will be the world's largest carbon fiber plant.
That's a lot of weave and the long view is that it will find its way into core models, with BMW exec Dr. Klaus Draeger saying, "As part of an intelligent mix of materials, we will apply carbon also beyond our BMW i and BMW M models in the future," and be able to do so "at competitive costs and in large quantities."
