1995 Bmw 540i E34- 2 Owners, Rust-free California Car, Immaculate, No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars

Year:1995 Mileage:140150 Color: with a matching black leather interior
Location:

Tarzana, California, United States

Tarzana, California, United States

Up for sale is my 1995 BMW 540i E34. The car was originally purchased by my grandfather from BMW of San Diego back in 1995 for nearly $50,000 ($77,000 in today's money adjusted for inflation) and I got it from him. I still have the original sale's receipt and window sticker as well! He took great care of his car, always garage-kept, always serviced on time and with genuine BMW parts and I have continued this into my ownership.  

The car carries a clean California title, has NEVER been in any accident, and is a southern California rust-free car in amazing condition. Car has a beautiful black paint exterior with a matching black leather interior, both in great shape. There are some cosmetic issues that I have described in the condition description, but overall the vehicle is in great shape for a car of this age. Has ALWAYS been kept in the garage by both me and my grandfather, and it shows when you compare this 5-series to others of the same vintage.

All electronics work perfectly, with the exception of the speaker on the drivers side not working- I was told it could use a new head unit- I like to keep my cars original so I have not changed it. No fault codes in the diagnostic computer when I had the car checked out.

1995 was the last year of the E34 5-series, so you're getting the most refined and advanced this series had to offer.  These cars were the most reliable cars BMW ever built, they are known to go 300k+miles as long as they are properly maintained, and this one is no exception. Only 140k miles on the car, so it has a long life ahead!

Engine runs perfectly, just like a legendary BMW V8 should. You will not find a cleaner and better condition E34 on Craigslist, this car will serve you a lifetime as long as you continue to properly maintain it as well as I have! I've always used 91 octane premium fuel, only used BMW OEM parts when servicing,  and I've just babied this car always, just as my grandfather had.


I just got the car smogged and it passed with flying colors for you California buyers. Registration is also current through the end of they year. I also performed a pre-purchase inspection on the vehicle and replaced all the important things that needed attention.


I'm a BMW enthusiast, and have spared no expense on maintaining this machine. I've changed many parts with new ones, here's a short list from the most recent service:

-New Air Filter
-New Power Steering fluid reservoir, filter, and liquid
-New radiator
-New battery
-New water pump
-New power steering pump
-New valve cover gaskets
-New windshield wipers
-New hood shocks
-New exhaust hangers/doughnuts
-New shifter lining
-Many new rubber parts in engine bay

Below are some pics, I'm going to try and get some higher res pics up later this week, along with a video walkthrough. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Car is also up for sale locally, so I reserve the right to cancel auction at any time.

Bond in Motion car exhibit coming to L.A.'s Petersen Automotive Museum

Tue, Sep 14 2021

The Petersen Automotive Museum was already a must-see for any car enthusiast visiting Los Angeles, and it's about to get a little better should you also be a James Bond fan. Opening Sept. 25 in the museum's appropriately named Grand Salon gallery will be the "Bond in Motion" exhibit of more than 30 cars, motorcycles, boats, submarines, helicopters and scale models used during the creation of the 24 official James Bond films. The timing corresponds with the Oct. 8 release of "No Time to Die," the upcoming 60th anniversary of the first Bond movie ... and hey, the release of our "All 24 James Bond movies ranked only by their cars." Highlights include many of the most famous Bond cars, including a 1977 Lotus Esprit S1 in submarine guise from "The Spy Who Loved Me," an Aston Martin V8 from "The Living Daylights," a 1999 BMW Z8 from "The World is Not Enough," the Aston Martin DB10 specially made for "Spectre," the post-flipped Aston Martin DBS from "Casino Royale," and one of the 1964 Aston Martin DB5s from the recent movies. I visited an exhibit of the same name back in 2013 at England's sensational Beaulieu Motor Museum. Although the one in L.A. won't be as comprehensive as that, simply due to logistics, many of the same vehicles and props will be present. You can see some of the photos from that exhibit below, and should you be a James Bond fan, can appreciate that it went much further than the Aston-heavy headliners above. In fact, it was hard to see what was missing from the collection. Tickets are on sale for the opening reception Sept. 23 featuring "one-night-only photo opportunities, live entertainment, food and martinis, shaken not stirred." Considering this is Los Angeles we're talking about, it's perfectly plausible this means noteworthy cast members from past films. Prices are $60 for general admission and $199 for VIP access, which includes exclusive access to the exhibit, "007 lounge" and a curated talk, plus complimentary food and a hosted bar.  The exhibit runs until October 2022.  AMC Hornet and Mercury Cougar XR7 View 22 Photos  

BMW X1 EV for Zinoro spotted

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

BMW has teamed up with Chinese automaker Brilliance Automotive to create a joint venture in China, called Zinoro, and it appears that an all-electric version of the X1 crossover is to be the brand's first model. Spotted testing in Munich, these spy shots show a more camouflaged version of the X1 EV that we saw back in April.
Comparing these latest spy shots, we can see that the Zinoro model will wear a completely unique front fascia that ditches BMW's trademark grille, but few other changes seem to be taking place. Previous reports indicate that this Zinoro EV could go on sale in China early next year.

Alpina B4 coupe will be your subtle M4

Sat, 14 Sep 2013

We're big fans of Alpina here at Autoblog - the BMW tuner has created some seriously delicious products in the past, and recently tuned the diesel-powered 3 Series wagon to create the D3 Bi-Turbo. What we like most about Alpina is how the cars only look subtly more aggressive than stock, yet they pack a real wallop under the hood.
Take this B4 Coupe, recently spotted testing at the Nürburgring. It looks pretty tame compared to the normal 435i, the only visual additions being the Alpina-standard 21-spoke wheels, modified front lip and rear wing spoiler. But under the hood, Alpina is reportedly working on a tuned, twin-turbo straight-six that produces something like 410 horsepower. That means the B4 should be good for a 0-62 time of 4.2 seconds, with a top speed around 190 mph. Rear-wheel drive will be standard, though our spies suggest that Alpina could also use all-wheel drive here in the B4.
We have no doubt that the next BMW M4 will be super hot, but for those seeking a bit more stealth and exclusivity, this Alpina B4 certainly looks the business. Check it out in our gallery above.
