Basic information and history

The 1995 BMW 540i Touring is the perfect combination of performance and functionality, particularly attractive to enthusiasts of classic BMW models. The E34 generation Touring is particularly appreciated for its robust construction, refined driving characteristics and uncompromising detail quality. Only 499 examples of the 540i/6 Touring were ever produced, making this car one of the rarer modern classics.

This car is one of only 60 Touring examples with the color combination Oxford green (324) and 6-speed manual transmission, which makes it extra sought after by collectors. The car was originally delivered in Germany and later imported to Sweden. Total mileage is 285,000 kilometers. The number of previous users is seven, of which the current owner has owned the car on two occasions.

The current owner is an avid E34 enthusiast and has maintained and renovated the car for almost 100,000 SEK over the years. This amount does not include the Supersprint exhaust system, adjustable chassis or rims. There is documentation for what has been done, including service and maintenance, radiator, AC compressor, lambda sensors, flywheel and clutch, wiring harnesses for the tailgate, renovated diff and several small details such as plastic clips and moldings. A solid job to ensure the car appears in the absolute best condition!

Among other interesting details – in addition to the unusual specification and colour choice – the car has been tastefully upgraded with a Supersprint exhaust system, BC chassis, and M-Technic rear spoiler . According to the seller, the condition is exceptionally good both interior and exterior, which is unusual for the mileage and age. Oxford green metallic and well-kept black bison leather interior make the car one of the most attractive E34s on the market.
