It's a decent deal; a major plus is that the E39 is easy to work on if you are so inclined. If it's a slushbox have the ATF changed ASAP. You also need to be thinking of replacing the radiator, water pump, t-stat/housing and the expansion tank in the next year or so. It's a fairly easy afternoon DIY project. Join the E39 Yahoo group- it's a great resource, as is membership in the BMW Car Club. Service the car by the book, change the oil twice as often as indicated, and the car will run another 150,000-200,000 miles with no problem.
