    Over all in the 4 years of BMW 540i V8 ownership rarely did I have to worry about the 540's reliability and only when fuel prices have got silly have I had to get rid. Can you imagine moving to a 2 l diesel!

    This is a great car. Unfourtunately I live in a city where there are speed limits and cops around every corner. Enjoy.

    I bought my silver 2001 BMW 540i Sport 3 months ago and have been in heaven ever since. Great power and comfort and very importantly to me extremely safe which with a 13 month old child is a high priority. There is nothing out there with as much spunk and pure poise!

    The E39 BMW 540i shares its body and basic trim with the 520i, 523i, 525tds, 528i, 530d, 535i and the almighty M5. It is a 5-series (medium sedan) and has a 4.4 liter displacement V8 engine, the M62, with VANOS. We could go on with numbers all day (and will, later) but for now, let's talk about the ...

    I've owned e39 540 with MU62B44 engine and 6-speed manual gearbox for few months now. It's a fast car ... until it starts to snow. Big engine heats interior real quick, so with traction control it's quite comfortable car even during winter. It is very hard to find better car that would be that fast ...

    I traded in my beloved 2001 BMW 530i when I discovered a one owner trade, 2003 BMW 540i V8 6-Speed, being offered as a CPO by a local BMW dealer. It is the last model year of the E39 chassis and mine was the 30th anniversary run of BMW's 5-Series in 9/2002. The engine is a piece of automotive engin ...

    Fantastic car for the price (paid 20% of new after 4 years). Monster torque - don't be afraid to overtake at 800rpm. After owning an E36 M3 it's a disappointment at the top end but hey, it's half the price and it doesn't EVER break down - unburstable is the name of this major player in the motorway ...

    Comparing with my previous owned cars, Mercedes S280, Mercedes SL 350, Volvo 240, BMW 730 and BMW 750, the BMW 540 is my choice by far; and a joy to drive!
