About this car

This 2011 BMW 5 Series M Sport has covered 136,500 miles, around 43,500 more than typical for its age. At £3,990, it is advertised £130 below our estimated market asking price of £4,120. The estimate uses 2,801 UK dealer adverts for the BMW 5 Series, with adjustments for age, mileage, trim, engine and other specifications. We first saw this car advertised 147 days ago. Its asking price has since fallen by £1,000. That history is worth bearing in mind when speaking to the dealer. MOT records show an expiry date of 18 February 2027, and the latest recorded mileage is consistent with the advert. The seller is RS Motors (Nottingham), based in Nottingham.
