I am selling my pride and joy. Necessity and growing kids mean a change of vehicle is called for. I love this car and it has been very good to me. I have used it as my daily and taken it out and driven it hard at more than half a dozen track days over the three years I have owned it. It goes VERY well.

On the flipside it is a compliant ride and returns pretty reasonable fuel consumption for the size of the car. I regularly return 500+ kms around town and over 600km open road/touring.

The paint is not mint, but tidy considering the age. There are a few small scrapes and a couple of small dings on the body. The nose has been wrapped in a clearcoat adhesive to protect from stonechips.

By way of background the 540iS is a very limited run BMW. Only 250 were ever made in RHD and by our count only around a dozen reached NZ as new cars in the '90s.
