Hi everyone, my father gave me his BMW E39 523i, a 1997 inline six-cylinder with 170 hp and now on 200,000 km. The car is very well equipped with air conditioning/PDC/heated seats/sunroof and is very well maintained both inside and out. It's only been serviced for three times and has a service history of 145,000 km. My question is, is it worth keeping it and turning it into a classic car? I have to say, I really like the car 🙂

Loading...So I can reach the pedals easily but I can't see the view very well. Do you think I can drive with pillows
Hi, about two months ago I took the entire car apart to tackle the well-known rust problem on my Golf Mk6 between the sills and the fender (it was a lot of work). I've already sanded and primed everything, then painted the parts (sills and fenders) and polished them. A few days ago I noticed…
Hi, I want to buy my first car, but I don't know what the best option is. Can you recommend a BMW that might be suitable for beginners? A sedan is best. Thanks in advance!
Hey, my first car should be an off-road vehicle… However, my budget is only 10,000€ What can you do? 🙁 LG
For example, the managing director and founder of a Mercedes dealership. I know that such a workshop alone can easily generate 100,000 to 500,000 euros in revenue per month, depending on the size of the dealership. Personally, I would estimate a monthly salary of 50,000 euros. Is that possible?
I have exactly the same model, only with poorer equipment and fewer kilometers. I am firmly determined to miss this vehicle one day an H – license plate, because it has for me almost all the merits that must have a good car: silk softener, rugged, durable, economical and very well degassed engine, comfortable chassis made of aluminum, high-quality encouragement, very quiet driving noise, good accident safety despite the age, relatively easy to operate. One Manko: rust protection! I therefore no longer drive in winter and, if possible, not in rain. Good: BMW Classic assured me that up to 2038 spare parts will be produced. So one assumes an increase in value, as in the E30. Personally, however, it doesn’t matter because the value on the paper has nothing to do with the actual value anyway, and I do not intend to sell.
Basically, it depends on your desire and budget whether something is worth it.
When you like the car and you have patience, you can of course not object to the project.
if you’re a big investment car, that’s a little different. Checkbook? Great. Model? Well.
Congratulations!
“Long” – how? Do you want to drive it or just own it?
He’ll never get a higher sales value than now.
Oldtimer must have a 30-year-old first registration. So 1989 and older.
Well, of course, the cars have a higher sales value. See the old golf 1 or 2 how expensive they are in good condition and earlier you got the shot behind or Polo 86c they were actually cheap earlier but today they have become significantly expensive than before.
Wait – don’t fall in there. The cars are worthless money graves and you see the attempt to make nothing a fortune.
There was a thumb rule: if it has TÜV, it is worth 1000 marks …

Oldtimer: vehicles that have been on the market for the first time 30 years ago largely correspond to the original condition, are in good condition and serve for the care of the motor vehicle cultural goods;

then you should rent a garage and leave the car well for a few years, and naturally…
Maintenance costs will certainly be above a possible increase in value.
