1996 BMW 740i V8

Highlights

  • Only 77,825 km from new
  • Imported from Japan and not yet registered
  • Finished in Orient Blue Metallic
  • Bright upholstery for a striking contrast

The Appeal

The E38 has gone down on record as one of the best of BMW's 90s output. Loaded with handsome lines, it's little wonder they soon became Hollywood royalty thanks to their stint in Tomorrow Never Dies. They were practically like Bond cars for their tech, too. While it may seem fairly pedestrian today, the first European car to have satnav isn't to be sniffed at, nor was the I-bus system or multi-function steering wheel.

Originally shipped for the Japanese market, this 1996 example has been very nicely cared for, and has only recently arrived in Poland. It's only covered 77,825km from new, and is in fine mechanical order. Those movie-star looks are picked out in a beautiful Oriental Blue livery, while the comfortable cabin is wrapped in grey leather.
