I've owned this car for the past 6 years and put nearly 100k miles on it. The only repair issues I've had is replacing the leaking gaskets. If you decide to purchase this model BMW be sure you have an honest mechanic. I noticed antifreeze in the oil reservoir and was almost certain I had a blown head gasket. When I took it to my mechanic I was pleasantly surprised to find the problem was just a bad oil filter housing which cost only a couple hundred dollars to fix.

Responded quickly to my Email interest, and was very helpful in trying to find me a similar vehicle to the one I had requested. Thank you, again!

This is the best car I have ever owned.

After twelve years, and 165,000 miles, I am still driving this vehicle. The performance, in terms of handling and acceleration are excellent. It's reliability speaks for itself. Within the past year I have had some system failures i.e. starter, back hatch latch, otherwise, maintenance has been pretty much limited to scheduled maintenance. The only design issue I would note are: the cup holders are flimsy ( German's don't understand why Americans need them); wind noise is more noticeable than its competitors; and, the seals around the rear window began showing signs of deterioration pretty early; although there integrity has never been compromised. If I could find a brand new replacement, I would buy it. BMW's should provide performance with classic design. New versions are too gimmicky with electronics.

Much more reliable car than expected

by BMWFan from

May 12, 2017

When people wants to buy BMW, the worry is it will have lots of problem and costly to maintain. I owned this 2005 BMW 530i since 2011 and have not had any issue with the car. The car is very reliable. It has similar feel as my 2015 BMW. I think it has great engine, much more comfortable car than any car priced in its range. It is true the oil change is more than regular car, but please also remember that the oil last 3 times longer than regular car. The transmission and break flush will cost more but it is roughly $200 more than regular car for every 30K miles. This is a performance car. It is reliable, very comfortable and great value for the money

Kyle Heppner was straight up with me on how the buying process worked. I told Kyle what I was looking to buy but was probably a year to 18 months away. Kyle treated me as if I was ready to buy it today by answering all the questions I had. Kyle has kept in contact by email and phone. This is probably my last buy of a new truck in my life time. Still own my 2000 surburan I bought new in 1999 with 167,000 miles and plan to keep for the rest ofmy life. Most of the dealers i have contacted in Montana with were not interested in me when I said I was 1 year to 18 months away from buying. They were $10,000 to $12,000 higher to start with. My loyalty to and trust in Kyle seems to increase each month. Looking forward to meeting Kyle. Thank you Kyle.
