The BMW 540 is the six-cylinder flagship of the mid-size 5 Series range, sold across the late F10 and the G30 that replaced it in 2017.
How much does a used BMW 540 cost in the UAE?
Expect AED null to AED null for whatever is currently listed. Because this nameplate spans two body generations, confirm which one a specific car is before comparing it against another 540.
Which used BMW 540 year should you buy?
A G30 from 2017 to 2020 is the newer and stiffer-bodied option, with the run-out F10 from 2016 to 2017 as the cheaper way to the same turbocharged six.
Is a used BMW 540 reliable?
None of the cars we have inspected here show a mechanical fault in the engine, gearbox, suspension or steering, against the 26% we would expect for saloons of this age and mileage in the UAE. That is a strong result for a six-cylinder flagship this size, though it makes the service record on any individual car worth confirming rather than assuming.
What else should you know about the BMW 540?
A BMW 318 costs far less if a newer, smaller BMW suits you better than the older six-cylinder flagship. A BMW 530 undercuts it while staying in the same body.
