Representative finance starts from £308 per month. The BMW 5 Series is often praised for its sophisticated engineering and quality interior. However, it's commonly reported that some models, particularly older diesel variants, can experience issues with the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve, so this is worth checking as part of your inspection. MOT history for every listing is available to view on Motoring.Today. Regarding ULEZ compliance, while no specific figures are available for the current stock, petrol cars from roughly 2006 (Euro 4) and diesels from September 2015 (Euro 6) typically meet ULEZ requirements. Buyers should verify the Euro standard of any individual vehicle to confirm its ULEZ status before purchase.
