Hey man, thanks for this video. I bought the exact same car in Łukow, Poland (530d, 193KM @map 230KM) in March of 2023. I paid below 2k eur and got a perfectly driving car with a very nice interior (black leather, exclusive edition, same options as yours, manual seats, folding mirrors) which I drove after the transaction about 600 km to my home in Wroclaw (opposite part of the country). Till now I repaired exaust, trunk struts, and trunk window struts as well as pdc sensors (NTY brand is your friend), besides that all vacuum and fuel lines/hoses and gaskets around the engine (valve gasket is waiting for its turn), belts with mounts, oil and all filters, dif and steering oil, water bus, egr blocked, exhaust filter, and replaced manifold gasket, also changed ac cooler to a new one as it has 9 holes and regenerated turbo and make injector adjustment as they are not new at best xD Besides that I changed all steering tips and control arms rear and front (lemforder), and brakes front and rear (ate) + handbrake (brembo). All stuff with the labor costed total of about 3,5k eur. Now it drives fantastic, got about 5.5L/100km on a freeway so I'm satisfied. Greetings from Poland ;) PS. my trunk wiper also does not work and it always says "the trunk is open" and the hatch itself needs to be fully replaced but it's a pain to do it. Good luck!
That middle section support is not that expensive, but.. you can just drop it to a citric acid and paint it and it's good again with a little effort though.
Btw I have -96 523i. Over the years I have had 525tdsa, tds, 530d, 530da atleast of these and as a king of the hill the Alpina D10 too. That's only the E39's I have had if I don't forget any of them.
LEDs often blind (irritate) oncoming drivers, and are usually worse than the original equipment on the car. Find the best aftermarket lights you can find the meet OEM specs.
If headlights are properly adjusted they shouldn't blind oncoming drivers. I haven't decided yet. Maybe i just take one more pair of headlights and upgrade them to LED and then im able to compare them. :)
@@Reimann20 ega neid korralikke enam väga ei leia. Tuleb ise korras hoida. Juurde neid ju enam ei tehta. Sisu on korralik, tahab lihtsalt pesu saada ning istmeid remontida. Ma ei eeldagi, et ostan 20+ aastat vana auto ning saan samaväärse nagu esindusest. Tuleb käed mustaks teha ning parendada suksut. 🙂
Ma soovitaks kyll katsetada mingeid LED projektoreid… võimalus, et nad on head on päris kõrged ja samas kui ei ole, siis saad alati ju teised projektorid sisse lykata ja lihtsalt kaotad veidi raha
@@MisWorkshopBMW ma neid bi xenoneid olen miski 40 komplekti teinud kunagi. Täna enam ei teeks. Sest ma panin sinna lõpuks niikuinii led pirnid sisse et saada hea tulemus… aga siis polnud led projektoreid väga võtta

@@MisWorkshopBMWon my E46 I'm looking into retrofitting xenon projectors to replace my halogen projectors. However this is quite expensive option
Still cheaper than to buy new original headlights. :) @@anishmahadeo5073
@@MisWorkshopBMW lol true, I just like to tinker
e39. on ikka hea auto eks😀. väârt auto, mida hoida ja putidada.
aga turg on olematu jah, ega neid jääb ju iga päevaga aina vähemaks.
Turg on sõna otseses mõttes perses. 😂 Aga vahel leiab mõne hea isendi ka. See on isegi päris okei. 🙂 Vaatane, mis tulevik toob.
@@MisWorkshopBMWMul selline 39 aga palju vähema roostega ja üldse välimus ja sisu korras, kõik lisad mis peal, ka töötavad.

781 BPG (E39 530D black sapphire sedaan) omanik tervitab ja soovib edu.
Tervitused vastu!
530d is the best. Good choice
Thanks! E39 is always a good choice for the money. :)
You look like the bad guy in Limitless film and u sound like him too now 😂
Thanks! I take that as a compliment. 😂

Ma vaatan ja mõtlen, millised sinna panna. Ehk esimesed teen bi-xenonif ja siis otsiks ühe komplekti tulesid ning teeks LED’ide peale.
@@MisWorkshopBMW ma neid bi xenoneid olen miski 40 komplekti teinud kunagi. Täna enam ei teeks. Sest ma panin sinna lõpuks niikuinii led pirnid sisse et saada hea tulemus… aga siis polnud led projektoreid väga võtta
@@Neemelaid, nüüd mingid LED projectorid leidsin. Ma ei tea, kas need sobivad või ei. Eks ma teen proovi esialgu D2S LED pirniga proovi.
