Information about the model

Allow me to present you this fantastic BMW version. That is a striking instance of how a BMW must be held during the years. The 5 series E39 was constructed in a period when BMW just had three classes; the 3, the 5 and the 7 string. This car was created from 1996-2003. It's predecessor was that the E34, and also the successor was that the E60, that was created by Chris Bangle. Plus it's 40 percent more rigid than it's predecessor. Black cloth inside, with M certain accessories, Brushed aluminum trim / dash a good deal of are available equally in the doorway and in the car too. This midsize luxury car was outfitted with a lot of extras M-sport multifunctional steering wheel, with hefty side reinforcing, 5 speed manual transmission, The chairs were transformed back to normal ones because of practical reasons. The vehicle is 6 cm broader, and 2 cm taller than it's little brother the E46 sedan.

The car may be equipped with the M-sport package which means: M-footrest M-door sills, and M-velour, floor mats inside, a lot of the inside components were borrowed from the contemporary 7-series (E38). On the steering wheel, we can control the volume, the tracks, and the cruise control. The 520i has got an inline six cylinder 2.2 liter petrol engine. It's codename is: M54 It produces 170 Hp and 210 Nm @ 3500 RPM. Fuel consumption highway - 5.5 l /100 km. Fuel consumption city- 9.5 l /100 km. Fuel consumption combined - 7 l /100 km. 0-60 Mph is 9.1 seconds and the top speed is around 226 km/h.

From the rear you can see the M specific rear bumper with the black diffuser, single chrome exhaust PDC, parking sensors. The tail lights are beautiful, especially at night, this is not yet LED but it looks good. This car has got the xenon projector headlights the daylight (angel eye) rings, the dimmer, reflector, and the blinkers. Front and rear fog-lights. Power mirrors. Double glazed windows. The weight surplus is just +1kg / door. Two panes of glass with inert gas sealed in between the panes. Dual zone climate control, increasing and lowering the temperature. Defrost AC button will let you control how to recirculate the air, the first will let you in fresh air if it senses dust pollutants outside, it will change to inner circulation only.

Rear compartment: power rear windows, chrome door handles, leather padding. It should be comfortable for four adults, for long journeys 70 l fuel tank, It should be enough for, 800 - 900 km on long journeys Depending on your driving style. Bimmer doesn't miss anything from its trunk, there is a full size spare wheel with the BMW brand car jack. Fortunately this was before the run flat tyre era. This car has 435 liter storage capacity in the trunk. Quite roomy. On the right side there's battery 95 Ah. Battery is needed for this type of car. Everything is in its place, All the necessary handbooks and manuals have been preserved. Well, that was the 520i review!
