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?
