Vehicle description

For sale is a used manual Euro 1986/1987 BMW 324D (12/1986 manufacture date). This is one of the first years the that most famous model BMW made, the E30, was made with a diesel engine. It has the BMW M21 diesel engine (this is not the turbo engine). If you Google best diesel engines and do your research, this will come up as one of the best. We imported the car from Europe and are the third owners. The first was a lady in Germany, and the second was a couple in the Netherlands. For a diesel that is a baby. The car is my daily driver. I only drive 12 miles each way to work. The car starts perfectly and there is never a concern with any problems. It gets about 33 or 34 miles per gallon. The only reason we are selling it is because we are moving to a place with a dirt road. I have a clear Georgia title in hand! I have added pictures of the under side of the car. No rust down there.
The Good: The mileage is in kilos and from my gas logs they are approximate. The car has 167,882 kilos (approximately 105,00 original miles! for a 30 year old classic). Remember 0.62 miles = 1 kilo.
03/2015: New front rotors, back rotors turned, new front and back brake pads, transmission fluid changes, new fuel filter, and new brake fluid. Mileage was 158712 kilos.
04/2016: New lifetime Mishimoto radiator, new fan, new fan clutch, new belts, new glow plugs, new glow plug fuse, new water pump, new mats, and new K & N lifetime air filter. The thermostat was changed in 04/16 also. The original thermostat for the car runs at the 3/4 spot (remember it is cold in Europe so the car runs hotter) so it was changed to the 524td (American) thermostat which has the needle at half.Mileage was 161272 kilos.
06/16: New Garagistic shift bushings. Mileage was 162621 kilos.
09/16: Style 10 rims professionally refinished and new tires. Mileage was 163530 kilos.
The Bad -The car is over 30 years old and has some minor issues with some small spots on the body that need to be treated. I think the clear coat may have worn as it is hard to get stains from leaves off. Nothing major. I had planned to take it to Maaco to refresh it, take care of the small spots, and get a new clear coat but never got to it. -This a Euro car. It does not have air conditioning. -When the car is cold the brake light comes on. When it warms up the light goes off. Research shows that this is a common problem and has to do with the solder on the connection. I have never had the time to do this project. But there is a youtube video that walks you through this if that is a problem for you. -The lower seat heater and the power antennae do not work. I had replaced the antennae when i first got the car but those things don"t hold up for long. -I have a c.d. that dealers use to identify part numbers. This makes searching for parts easier. You put in the VIN and it gives you the part numbers. Some parts are available in the U.S. because of the Amercian available 524TD. It used the same engine. But others have to be found on Ebay or searching the internet and most of the time come from England or Germany.
Please email any questions. No Shipping is available. You must make arrangements to pick the vehicle up in Saint Marys, Georgia. The listed price is my lowest acceptable price. I will throw in the original 14 inch bottlecap rims with the tires which are still in great condition. Thanks for looking.
