New member - 2003 5 Series brochure?

[MJC]

I am new to the board, in fact I spent a week trying to find a good user-group to join and I am glad came across this one.

Anyway, I had a 1997 5 series, sold it, got an Audi, sold it, and I am now getting a 2003 525 Sport Pkg with 5k miles - yeah one of those that preffer the old design.

My question is does anyboy know where to see a PDF 2003 5 Series brochure, I've searched google, yahoo...to no avail. Considering you can now find practically anything online, I am surprise is been this difficult.

Glad to be here.

Welcome to the board. I'm new too and was looking for a brochure for 2001. I ended up buying one off of ebay. You might search there.

The pdf version is available through the BMW Owner's cirlce website. You just need your VIN to register. However if you don't want register for some reason just let me know and I can download it and send it to you

You may also want to try searching Ebay.

I signed up at the BMW owners circle and can download the owners manual, but I can't find the brochure to download. Seems it's not available for 2001 5 series or 'm mssing it. Help?

I don't think they keep the old brochures online.

Kirby is right, they don't keep them online. I saw pdf and nothing else and was thinking manuals. There are a few of them here http://bimmer.freeservers.com/BMW/Images/index.htm but not the 03 asked for in the original post. Guess ebay or craigslist might be your best best, you can also try here http://www.autolit.com/

Like I said earlier, you might wanna check eBay!

Why? - I just bought an original factory brochure for the 2001 5 Series (525, 530, and 540i) on eBay. It only cost me 14 bones. I didn't see anymore. However, I'm sure there are others posted from time-to-time. I figured it is a nice-to-have to go with my original paperwork, owners manual, etc.

Happy hunting!

I bought my 1999 Model E39 brochure on ebay for $8. It was in brand new shape and looked to have never been opend. Just keep your eyes open!

i just rec'd my 2001 brochure yesterday that i purchased on eBay. awesome. it was brand new and contained alot more information than current brochures do.... all options, color patches, safety info, etc.

i would keep looking. i found one for my 3-Series but it doesn't compare to this one.

good luck.
