I've looked at trading my 5 series in, and to be honest i'd rather sell to the man in the street rather that let a dealer make a few quid out of it... but i'd like to know what the market is like for them and what's it worth.

530i sport
June 2003
Black
Black leather
Automatic
6 CD changer
Full service (main dealer mainly)- last service was June
72,500 mls (will be soon anyway!)
Tyres are good for a further 10K at least
MOT till June
Tax till April

in good to excellent condition.

Any response is welcomed.

Would advertise it at about £7k aiming for £6k to £6.5k, otherwise if the stealer is offering anything above £6k then I'd take it.

My brother is looking for one of these, does it have heated leather, tinted rear windows and what alloys does it have?

Could you send me some photos?

Why don't you just put a classified ad on here, like everyone else does?

I will put an add on - the question was, "what's it worth?", so that i'm realistic in what i'm asking.

Try to think of something more constructive when responding on forums.

Was it a proper Sport or just kit?

Auto/Manual?

it's an M sport off the factory line - so has the M sport kit, alloys, door plates, suspension upgrade, M logos on steering wheel, alloys etc. Not on the boot as it's not an M5 it's a 5 series sport, with M styling.

i'll get some photo's taken and it will be appearing in the classifieds next week.

He after one with heated front seats and tinted windows I'm afraid - M-parallels would have been a bonus.

He's in Belfast although would go pretty much anywhere to get the car as we don't have the choice over here.
