1985 BMW 518I -- Description

VIN WBADK480-336-198769 European Motor Studio is very excited to bring to market an incredibly rare and unusual find. This Japanese import, 1985 BMW 518i finished in Platinum Green Metallic over Black cloth interior having covered a mere 36,850 (22,898 miles) kilometers since brand new. This E28 5-Series is draped in its original factory Platinum Green Metallic paint verified by a paint meter used on all of the body panels. Absolutely no signs of accident repair or rust can be seen in... this E28 including the undercarriage. All of the exterior trim and glass is all original and in spectacular original condition (one small indent in the rear bumper chrome just under the passenger tail light). All of the exterior rubber seals appear to be original and still soft and not dry rotted out or cracked. The interior is all original and in near showroom condition. The cloth seats and the door panels do not have the typical rips, separation or fraying and the carpets do not have any stains or heel wear. The dashboard looks just about new with no cracking or discoloration of any kind. All of the switchgear and gauges are all unmarked and clear with no signs of wear. Open the hood of this 518i and the engine is just about as clean and original as you would expect to find when it was sitting on the showroom floor. All of the original zinc plating is still present which is very unusual to see still intact. The engine starts right up and idles smoothly and free from any smoke on start up or acceleration. Brand new tires, front pads and rotors along with a service has just been performed on the car. This E28 has to be one of the tightest and nicest driving 5-Series out there. It performs incredibly well and rides beautifully. The suspension and steering are excellent with no signs of wear or looseness. All of the electronics are operating as designed including the original radio, power antenna, power windows, power locks, AC blows cold and all of the interior and exterior lights are functioning. There are no dash lights or check lights on and the system appears to be operating as designed. The undercarriage of the car is incredibly clean and original with absolutely no signs of damage, rust or prior repair. As mentioned above, the car has been paint metered and the reads outs verify that it is wearing original paint top to bottom. Original Japanese paperwork and books are present with the car along with the original spare tire and complete tool kit. This is an incredible opportunity to acquire one of the lowest mileage, incredibly original examples of a BMW E28 sport sedan.
