The Appeal

Offered with the first post-war German V12 engine, the E32 7 Series was all about showcasing the very best BMW could come up with. Lavish optional extras included a telephone, fax machine and even a wine cooler!

This 750 iL has the desirable electric rear seat package, besides a raft of other period mod cons. As the photographs show, it remains a very original example, in fair condition for its age. The vendor points out the comprehensive service history, with main dealer maintenance up to 180,000 km, and also that the car has recently completed a 500 km trip with no issues encountered along the way.

It's not often you see these cars today, so if V12 Teutonic luxury appeals, this is the car to buy.
