Been a BMW fan for a long time, had an E60 now have a 528i E39 that im selling, had the itch for a 7 Series, knowing all the issues they have my search took a while till i found one i liked.

Got a PPI done on it at indy mechanic on a clean looking 2004 w 64k miles, all checked out, only issue was the Catalytic Convertor had a hidden fault which they found, & something with the Brake booster line. Thankfully the car still had 20 days of warranty left on it for the Emissions (covered Cats) plus the Brake booster was a recall issue.

The owner took it to BMW and they replaced both Catalytic convertors + changed brake booster lines.

Love the ride, i'm not a huge fan of the wheels...hoping to enjoy it with no issues for a while.

Good thing you caught the cats under warranty or your wallet would have been emptied!

At that year and mileage you should also take a very close look at the cooling system - radiator and reserve tank are problem areas and cracks develop with little warning.

Meanwhile, enjoy your new to you 7'er!

I still miss mine :-(
