E60 520d upgrade to F10, how much?
Hi lads,
My sister is looking to upgrade to an F10 520d SE, she is looking for black or navy with cream leather and probably unusually she wants a manual so that limits the choice somewhat.
She has an 06 E60 520d SE, silver, 170k miles very well maintained car, she is the third owner as far as I know, always serviced by local ex BMW tech, the car had a replacement gearbox and new clutch and DMF last year. Only fault I know of with the car is faulty rear PDC sensors.
Is it worth €5k? Been looking at F10's and they are between 15-17k for a 10 model with up to 100k miles. She is hoping to upgrade for 10k, does that sound possible or would she need a bigger budget, she's asked me to research it and get back to her. Would you need to factor in the cost of a timing chain if it hasn't been already done or are the F10's more reliable.
Would it be worth going up north for one?
