CONDITION
● Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition.
● Prior to being exported, the car was given a Grade 4 rating at auction in Japan, reflecting its condition.
● Specific notes from the seller include: it needs a new bonnet badge and there is a slight blemish on the driver’s seat.
● The seller also notes that the driver’s-side small rear door blind is stuck, and that the passenger-side small rear door blind is missing.
● The most recent MOT test took place on 11 May 2023 at 47, 889 km, resulting in a first-time pass with a minor defect for a failing track rod end ball joint dust cover, and an advisory for all brake pads wearing thin.
SERVICE HISTORY
● Although there is no paperwork, the most recent service was carried out at approximately 42, 000 km by a BMW main dealer. This can be checked with BMW GB. The E38-generation 750iL was the marque’s flagship luxury saloon, combining a smooth naturally aspirated V12 with an elegant and well-appointed cabin. Having covered a modest 48, 296 kilometres (30, 010 miles) from new, this 750iL is ready to perform as a sophisticated daily driver a competent long-distance tourer, and a wonderful addition to a collection.
