Buying the 1981 BMW 528e

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1981 BMW 528e; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 1981 BMW 528e, here are the facts that matter.

A buyer's checks

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Under the hood

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Good uses for the 528e

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Practical details

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.

Rent it for a week first

Rent first, buy later: a week with the 528e answers the big questions. If the 528e is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the 528e for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
