This is a 2000 BMW 540i.  It has an automatic transmission and a 4.4 liter V8 engine.  It is in great shape, with a few small chips on the hood, which is standard for a car that has been driven this much.  It has over 200,000 miles, right around 210,000.  The exact mileage is unknown because the instrument cluster was recently replaced with one that had been refurbished because the pixels went bad.  This is extremely common for these cars, and it had been taken off the list of common potential maintenance.  Another common problem with these cars is the degradation of the timing chain guides.  This has also been dealt with within the past 15,000 miles.  The timing chain was replaced along with its guide rails, and the top end of the engine was rebuilt.  This is a $5,000 job that will not need to be done for another 200,000 miles.  Another recent fix was the ABS computer, around the same time as the engine repairs.  As a result of this upkeep, the engine runs as strong as it ever did, idles smooth and low, and cranks out the horsepower.  The only problem left is the transmission.  The automatic transmission occasionally has problems deciding when to shift, and will rev higher than it should before changing gears.  Despite this infrequent hiccup, it is still a reliable daily driver.  It was daily driven by my father until a job shift required him to get a truck.  After that, I have been daily driving it for the past 8 or 9 months while working on my own car.  It never left either one of us stranded anywhere, and was a minor in convince at most.  Besides this, very little TLC would bring this car back to like new condition. Interior is in great shape.  The leather seats are heated and all their motors work beautifully.  If the flimsy cup holders were replaced, no one would know this car was 13 years old!

BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coup'e concept echoes 8 Series

Tue, 14 May 2013

BMW and Pininfarina are planning to debut a new concept at the 2013 Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. The Gran Lusso Coupé is designed to be the next logical step forward from the Zagato Coupé, and the one-off creation boasts plenty of BMW earmarks to set the car off as a true member of the German automaker's family. With a long wheel base and a stretched nose, the two door can't help but channel the long-dead BMW 8 Series, and the potent V12 under the hood only reinforces the link.
BMW has been kind enough to slip the world a few teasers, and the images show what looks like it could be the low-slung grand tourer of our dreams. Check out the full press release below for more information, and stay tuned for the full unveiling.

BMW X4 Concept images leak ahead of Shanghai debut

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

Last month, BMW confirmed that its long-awaited X4 crossover would debut next year, but other than imagining a smaller X6-shaped crossover, we really had no idea what the new niche model would look like. That is until a Russian website, Autowp, leaked a handful of embargoed images this morning showing the X4 Concept that will be unveiled in a couple of weeks at the Shanghai Motor Show.
From what we can see of this concept's styling, there are more elements shared with current BMW models than not. The face of the concept is an attractive blend of the current 3 Series sedan and the X3, while the roofline has definitely plucked right from the X6. This thinly veiled concept should carry over almost untouched when it enters production with the exception of the door handles and the overly stylized fascias and side mirrors. According to CarScoops, it will measure the same length as the current X3 and use the same engine lineup as well. Stay tuned, as we'll have more information on this concept shortly.

Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute

Fri, Jan 9 2015

Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.
