Notes: BMW 5 series in E60 guise. A well appointed mid-size sedan, with pedigree, as is to be expected of the Bavarian 'Bahn-Stormer. There's not much to dislike about this luxury sedan, it's well-built, with a bright, airy cabin. Lots of gadgets, even in the base models, with engine options to suit every taste. Not a roadside mechanic's guinea pig, requires specialist maintenance if it's to remain desireable in years to come. The E60 5,4L V8-32V - Big engine, big power, big presence, great poise. And of course, the wonderful V8 roar, when driven in anger.

Upgrader, I've got a buddy in Nigeria, who's instructed me to procure him an E60 BMW 545i. He's in Nigeria for about a week, then he's back to his base. I have drawn his attention to your car, and he's probably contacted you already. Is your price negotiable, and if so, by how much?
