HISTORY OF THE BMW
The 8 Series was introduced in 1990 under the E31 model code and was only available as a two-door coupé. It is powered by a range of naturally aspirated V8 and V12 petrol engines. The E31 started production just as E24 6 Series production ended, however, it is not considered a direct successor.
Design work of the first generation E31 8 Series began in 1984, with the final design phase and production development starting in 1986. The car debuted at the 1989 Frankfurt Motor Show and was produced until 1999. The 8 Series was designed to move beyond the market of the original E24 6 Series, featuring greater performance and an increased price. The 8 Series was the first road car to offer a V12 engine mated to a 6-speed manual transmission and was one of the first vehicles to be fitted with the electronic drive-by-wire throttle. The 8 Series was also among one of BMW's first cars to use a multi-link
THE CAR
Something a little different from the norm, both for us and BMW. A striking design that is considered to be one of the most beautiful BMW has been made by many. With that, it's a great pleasure to bring to market a BMW 850Ci E31 1993, fitted with the thundering M70 V 12 engine.
Highly specified with heated seats, rear blind, sports mode, and adaptable suspension. Finished in Sterling Silver over special order dark OX blood, this particular vehicle was first registered on the 12th January 1994 at McMillan BMW of Newmarket Auckland, New Zealand. The vehicle has predominantly spent its entire life in Auckland, aside from a short stint in 2006 where the vehicle resided in Christchurch and was maintained by the main dealer whilst there. A well-documented and highly maintained vehicle with a comprehensive dealer and independent specialist stamped service book till 2006 and then a host of invoices after this. The vehicle is also accompanied by a comprehensive dealer book pack, which includes warranty wording, service book, user manual, radio manual, dealer business cards, and even an accident repair brochure from BMW from the 90s along with an unopened BMW first-aid kit and a factory tool kit.
Recent work undertaken by the current owner includes replacement of all spark plugs, new Continental Max Contact 6 tyres, Control panel LCD screen replacement (known failure point), electronic driver's seat repair, new period correct stereo fitted with Bluetooth, full leather treatment, and body correction as well as the recent bodywork and detailed preparation.
