Tax is about 1200 euro a year.

It does seem a tad cheap, however not overly cheap. It looks to be in decent condition, chances are the seller just can't get rid of it.
They aren't factory rims, so maybe the owner has made some other changes too.

even withe the tax 8600 isnt a bad price for this model with the milege?

Absolutely not, that mileage is nice and low, however expect some work to be done on the cooling system (rad, hoses, water pump) very soon, and possible suspension issues.

The alloys are off an older car, maybe an E34 perhaps?

have to say it all looks fine, or as fine as you can tell by looking at an ad...
nice motor, low miles, low(ish) price.....

If you in the market for a car like this, it defo would be worth a look,
check out the Service history and confirm what you can from invoices.
check the reg and vin on the net... and have a mechanic give it the once over and if it all checks out... looks like you are on to a winner

Sorry, but I think it's a good €1500 overpriced!

are there cars of this spec out there for under 7 grand? i aint seen many if ny, but be sure to point them this way.

thanks for the advice

I think its overpriced aswell... I was cheking a few 530d 2001 for around 5k eu...

Briliant car thought, one of best diesel engines out there...

If you can swallow 1.2keu tax, then just go for 530d

whats wrong with this 530d?
