BMW 520d SE Auto
Originally Supplied as a BMW Harry Fairbairn Demonstrator
Specified with Over £19,570 of Genuine BMW Factory Options
Originally supplied by BMW Harry Fairbairn, this exceptional BMW 520d SE Auto spent approximately the first two months of its life serving as the dealership demonstrator.
Specified by the dealership to showcase the F10 5 Series range, it was ordered with over £19,570 of genuine BMW factory optional extras, resulting in an original list price approaching £55,000 when new. For a 520d SE, this represented an exceptional level of specification, placing it alongside considerably more expensive models within the BMW range.
Following its demonstrator duties, the BMW was purchased by a doctor, who retained ownership from 2013 until May 2026. During those thirteen years, it was carefully maintained and exceptionally well cared for, preserving the quality, refinement and condition expected of a vehicle of this calibre.
In May 2026, the vehicle was acquired by a friend of ours. Having known the car and recognised both its exceptional specification and provenance, we approached him to ask whether he would consider selling it to us, which he did.
Today, examples with this combination of provenance, long-term ownership and original factory specification are becoming increasingly difficult to find. The quality of its original specification, together with the care it has received throughout its life, makes this a particularly distinctive example of the F10 generation 5 Series.
Powered by BMW’s renowned 2.0 litre diesel engine and paired with the smooth Sport Automatic Transmission, it offers an excellent balance of performance, refinement and economy. The extensive factory specification enhances every journey, while the overall condition reflects the care and attention it has received throughout its life.
As part of our preparation, all four 19-inch alloy wheels have been professionally refurbished, ensuring the vehicle is presented to the standard its history and specification deserve.
Presented in exceptional condition throughout, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the highest specified BMW 520d models of its generation.
