The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"This is a California car, purchased new in the Los Angeles Area, and later driven in the Monterey Bay region. It is in good to very good overall condition, with minor body imperfections. The interior is original except for the re-upholstered drivers seat, which is not genuine BMW vinyl. Almost all gauges and power accessories function as they should, including power windows, power mirrors, power seats, and power locks. The sun roof does not open, and the odometer ceased working last year at 256,000."

You are bidding on a 1985 BMW 524TD 4-door Sedan.

Although considered to be the first modern and relatively quiet diesel automobile,

only 1600 were sold in the United States when offered in 1985 & 1986.

The car is Alpine white with a black vinyl interior.

It has all of the standard power features of the E28 series,

and they all work except for the sunroof and the headrest adjustment (they never work).

The sunroof has some rust on the edge from being parked close to the ocean,

 and needs repair or replacement.

It is a 100% California car from Los Angeles, then Monterey Bay,

and recently the San Francisco Bay Area.

It recently overheated, and blew out the coolant.

It starts and runs, but cannot be driven any distance.

My mechanic and others diagnose it as a common head gasket failure.

Since I have owned it, I have had the following repairs and maintenance performed,

 and have most of the service records:

Valve adjustment, replace cracked valve cover, replace cooling hoses and connectors,

 rebuild entire air conditioning system including compressor and condenser,

replace all belts, drain and refill transmission fluid,repair door locks and windows as needed,

and install custom carpeted floor mats.

This is a car that is worth restoring, it has been a pleasure to drive,

 but like any 28 year old car, it needs continued repairs and maintenance.

In good running condition, I estimate it to be worth at least $3000.

Needing major engine work, I am offering it for $1500 or best offer.

Chevy Traverse, Hyundai Santa Fe revealed; Buick Envista, BMW M4 CSL driven | Autoblog Podcast #790

Fri, Jul 21 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor John Beltz Snyder. After some banter, including the discussion of an excellent tomato sauce recipe, they get into car reviews. Greg has been driving the Mercedes-AMG GLE 53, while John has been testing the BMW M4 CSL and Buick's new Envista crossover. There's lots of interesting news this week. Chevy revealed the 2024 Traverse with new looks, a new engine and on off-road(ish) trim. Hyundai gave us a glimpse at the wild styling of the next Santa Fe. Dodge might bring back the Stealth nameplate as an SUV, and that has implications for the Durango as well. Ford, after repeatedly raising prices, has turned around and significantly discounted the F-150 Lightning across all trims. The first Tesla Cybertruck has rolled off the line as a pre-production prototype. Finally, we reach in to the mailbag and help a listener decide what to do with cars for himself and his kids in this week's Spend My Money segment.

BMW will be featured marque at 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed

Fri, Apr 8 2016

As part of BMW's centenary celebration, it has been named the featured marque at the 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed. That means we'll see plenty of Bimmers on track, but it also means a few will be hoisted in the air on this year's version of the famous Gerry Judah sculpture. That sculpture takes center stage on the Goodwood House's front lawn, blending metal with actual automotive machinery for a striking display that serves as the centerpiece for the entire Festival of Speed. This year, it will feature three race-ready BMWs – the 328 Mille Miglia Roadster, a Brabham-BMW BT52 Formula 1 car, and a Le Mans-winning V12 LMR. Consider the racing bases covered. And since this is England, it's only fitting that Rolls-Royce and Mini will stand alongside their parent company during this year's event – Rolls-Royce is headquartered down the road. BMW Motorrad will feature prominently, as well, and the M Brand will have its own "M Avenue," which will feature M cars sold over the past 40 years, including more than a few of the M cars our editors chose in their list of the greatest BMWs. You can also expect BMW's birthday present to itself, the futuristic Vision Next 100 concept, to receive a prominent placement at Goodwood. And of course historical and modern BMW models will be taking to the Goodwood Hill Climb course alongside the usual slate of performance vehicles, racecars, and concept vehicles from other brands. The 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed runs from June 23 to 26. Related Video:

BMW M2 reportedly green-lit

Thu, 01 May 2014

A BMW M2 is on the way, according to a sub-forum in the Bimmerpost empire. Of course, we're actively enjoying a few grains of salt, just to be safe, as the post doesn't mention explicit sources, saying only that "multiple inside sources (who have been accurate in the past)," have confirmed the car.
Provided the forum is correct, though, there's some juicy information here. Production is allegedly slated for late fall 2015, with deliveries likely starting in early 2016. The new sports coupe should arrive with 365 to 375 horsepower, courtesy of an upgraded version of BMW's N55 turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline-six.
The report claims BMW also considered a modified version of the 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in the Mini Cooper S. That engine, known internally as the B48, would have been called the S48 for M2 duty, a significance that we're sure BMW purists would appreciate (the only BMW engine to wear an S designation was the four-cylinder from the legendary E30 M3).
