Yeah not a bad car for the price as it is later though it will have a crap abs pump 001 or 005 and if you look at it check the headlight adjusters arent fooked

that seems a bit expensive for what it is, you can pick up a good 530d or even an older sport for that sort of money.

520's are painfully slow and underpowered expect to be beaten by a 1.8 ford mondeo, besides if your lucky you can pick up a 520 for a bag of sand these days

Mondeo 1.8

0 - 62 mph 10.9 seconds
Top speed 127 mph

E39 520

0 - 62 mph 9.1 seconds
Top speed 140 mph

The figures say you are wrong.

the 2 litre mondeo is also slower.

it is technically a 2.2 late m54 engine not an early 2.0 turd
