Highlights

High specification car with M Sport trim
Only three registered keepers
Long MOT to December 2025 with no advisories
Very well kept and economical estate car

The Appeal

There’s a strong case to argue that this very low mileage E61 is all the car you’ll ever need. With 270bhp on tap it’s quick, it’s economical, it’s agile too, there’s space for five plus luggage and it’s got all the luxury toys you could want. Those Chris Bangle lines, once so controversial, have aged well too.

This car has also been barely used by its trio of keepers. They’ve amassed just 32,392 miles in the car’s 18 years, meaning it looks like a car less than half that age. This hasn’t been at the expense of maintenance - there is a run of servicing right up to the current mileage in January 2025.

Alongside the desirable M Sport specification this 535d comes with a panoramic roof, full black leather interior with wood veneer trim and heated seats with memory function. Recent work includes a respray, new discs and pads all round, new battery and new suspension pump. Even the a/c has had a regas.

The long, advisory-free MOT to December 2025 underlines the sense of a well kept car in remarkable condition. This is a car you can buy with your head and heart.
