REGISTRATION UNTIL JANUARY 2014

2000 model BMW M5 with full 2003 facelift (update model headlights and tail lights - genuine BMW).


Purchased in 2012 from Lotus Cup champion John Pagonas.

All older and worn parts were replenished and restored with no expense spared.
All work was carried out by BMW specialist Matthew Kane from Bimmertech in Balgowlah, New South Wales.
This vehicle has been fastidiously cared for throughout its life.

The vehicle is mechanically sound and preventative maintenance has always been completed ahead of schedule using brand new parts to ensure reliability and performance at all times.

Genuine highway mileage, almost all of the kilometres on this vehicle were accumulated by the previous owner who regularly commuted from Melbourne to Sydney.
BMW M5 owners in the United States easily see over 450,000 kilometres on their E39 M5’s without any problems what so ever. This is evident on the M5 enthusiast’s community forum (www.m5board.com), so you can be rest assured that this vehicle will provide many years of trouble-free ownership.

The E39 M5's were sold for $200,000 in Australia when new.

VEHICLE CONDITION:
The body work is in good condition for its age with a minor mark on the passenger side door (not noticeable) and some small paint chips on the front bar.
There is no rust or damage on the vehicle.
The factory clear coating and paint protection is completely intact and glossy.
However as you would expect, it is not a brand new vehicle and there are a few unnoticeable scuffs on two of the wheels from the previous owner.
These minor blemishes have been considered into the price and have absolutely no effect on the vehicle's performance and drive-ability.

IMPORTANT:

If you are genuinely interested in owning a prestige four door saloon with supercar performance, send me a text we can work something out :yes:

But i cannot offer test drives unless you show proof of a cash deposit on the day. Sorry, as I've had a lot of dreamers lately.
PRICE IS FOR QUICK SALE (AS-IS).

Recently registered in NSW so some photos will still show the old Victorian number plates YEJ617.

Thank you for looking (and thanks SAU) :)

Sms enquiries welcome any time.

    • ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
    • And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.
    • No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
    • Ahh. Well the block damage is a problem, you really need to run a tap or thread chaser through it to see if the threads can be saved, but any chips are likely to be bottom end bound which is bad. Earls seem to have what you need if you want to stick with mounting direct on the block: https://rceperformance.com.au/parts/earls-straight-adapter-1-8-npt-male-to-1-8-bspt-female.html, but as I said above I'd recommend remote mounting the sender
    • I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
