The Appeal
Introduced in 1995, the 3rd generation of the BMW 7 Series made quite an impact. With its impressive styling, performance and executive interior, it was a luxurious car that still felt smart and well-restrained. It was, of course, also immortalised as a mobile-phone-controlled in 'Tomorrow Never Dies', though the James Bond package never managed to hit market...
This particular 750IL comes complete with an extensive service history, rare colour matched wheels and a highly desirable colour scheme - extremely rare on this particular variant in fact (and as seen in the aforementioned Bond movie) - a great candidate for a very desirable modern classic.
