Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The car starts immediately, and the engine runs perfectly, delivering a wonderful V8 soundtrack from under the bonnet. Road handling feels tight and composed, the gearbox shifts smoothly and precisely, and the brakes are strong and responsive.
There are no unusual noises while driving and no warning lights present. The car was last inspected on 2026-03-02 with no remarks and received a 5-star rating.
The air conditioning runs ice cold, and all electrics are fully functional, including windows, mirrors, sunroof, and the rear window blind. The only noted defect is a crack in the left front fog light lens.
The boot space is very clean and complete, including the full toolkit and a detachable tow bar. -
Interior condition
Interior is finished in black soft leather throughout and is in excellent condition, with no damage. The car is equipped with the M-Sport package, featuring an M steering wheel, M gear knob, and M door sill trims, complemented by elegant wood trim details and black headliner.
Overall, the interior presents exceptionally well and still feels like new. Everything functions exactly as it should, and there are no pixel issues in the displays. -
Exterior condition
Bodywork is straight with well-aligned panels, even gaps, and clean shut lines. There are no signs of dents, damage, or rust, and the underbody is equally impressive—clean, solid, and free from corrosion.
The paintwork presents beautifully in a gleaming metallic silver finish, with no notable damage. On very close inspection, there are perhaps one or two tiny stone chips, but overall it remains in excellent condition. All plastic trims, including the bumpers, are intact and undamaged.
The car is fitted with the M aerodynamic body kit, including front and rear bumpers, side skirts, and a boot spoiler, giving it a sporty and purposeful appearance. It also sits on BMW M Parallel alloy wheels in top condition, fitted with good tyres. -
General condition
The BMW E39 540i has already reached true cult status and is now a highly sought-after youngtimer across all age groups. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find well-preserved examples like this for sale in Europe.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
