1989 BMW 5 Series 530i review from UK and Ireland
"Fast, Comfortable and Affordable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Central Locking packed up, and the Wipers keep turning on whenever they feel like it.
General comments?
Great car. I bought this motor for just over £1000 and it was a total bargain. Definitely worth a look. The auto versions are also pretty sprightly, and the acceleration is great.
