For those seeking the best luxury saloon you could buy in the 1990s, the E38-generation BMW 750iL is a serious contender, pairing the silky smoothness of a V12 engine with BMW's renowned driving dynamics. As the Bavarian range's flagship, the 750iL offered uncompromised comfort and performance, establishing itself as a favourite with discerning drivers who demanded the best.
This 1997 example is particularly notable, having been kept by a single owner registered from new and benefiting from a full service history at BMW Monaco. The car has been treated with care throughout its life and has always been stored in a locked garage, which has clearly contributed to its preservation. With 68,350 kilometres on the clock, the seller informs us that the overall condition is very good and the mechanical condition is as new. The bodywork is reported as free from damage related to knocks, with only a few minor scrapes on the bumpers and light wear to the seats consistent with careful use.
The car comes with the assurance of a MOT until April 2027, and the seller confirms that the MOT will be renewed before sale. For enthusiasts seeking a fine example of BMW’s V12 flagship with impeccable provenance and unique ownership from new, this 750iL represents a convincing opportunity.BMW 750IL-69.jpg4.46 MB
