I just sold a 525i touring. One of the best cars I've had (non mx5 of course). Wasn't fast but worked motorways easily but it was one of the nicest engines I've had in a car. Very nice and smooth 6 cylinder. 2.5 litre. Handled very well for a heavy lump and felt quite agile for such a large car.
Be careful with the older ones as they can get tin wor although only tends to be around archers. I'd go for the biggest engine he can afford tonrun/ keep. The lower end of the diesels are quite dull and gutless despite the torque and the lower end petrols aren't fantastic. I had the 2.5 litre petrol and I wouldn't wanna try a 1.6...
i think ink speed wise it might have been tainted as the car previous to the Tailgate McNoIndicate I had was a 4.2 supervharged v8 jag. Which was fast!
