up for sale / for trade 95 bmw (http://zilvia.net/f/#) 740il that i just owned for 2 weeks and passed smog ..heres more description based from the old owner of this car
this is my daily driver and has never let me down. It has never failed to start and has been perfectly reliable (http://zilvia.net/f/#) in every aspect. The car has a salvage title due to an accident in 2007. There is no frame damage. The engine was replaced with a lower-mileage engine one year ago after a spark plug (http://zilvia.net/f/#) broke off inside one of the cylinders, ruining the cylinder wall and all four valves on that cylinder. The new engine was completely re-sealed before going in, and was compression tested to rule out the Nikasil issue which plagued certain pre-1996 BMW (http://zilvia.net/f/) V8s. Engines effected by this issue usually failed around 60,000 miles due to erosion of the cylinder walls caused by the high sulfur content in American gasoline. Compression is perfect (180-190 PSI) on all cylinders. Both the car (http://zilvia.net/f/#) and the new engine have been in California since new. Contrary to the "maintenance nightmare" stories usually perpetuated by people who have never owned one of these cars, maintenance costs are not outrageous at all. This car has been well-maintained throughout its life, and you can really feel that when driving it. All of the electronics are fully operational and there are no weird glitches or places you have to smack the dashboard to get something to work. The car is located in fresno, CA and is available for viewing. Send me a PM to make arrangements.
