EXTERIOR
Having been carefully dry stored since new the condition of this 740i is exceptional. The Alpine White paintwork is 100% original and maintains a beautiful factory shine throughout. Given just how fresh everything looks and feels it really is hard to believe this car is actually 30 years old. The plastic trims are first-rate and none of the rubber seals show any signs of perishing. She’s arrow-straight along both sides, all the lights are crystal-clear, and the brightwork is excellent. Being very picky there are one or two light marks on the rear bumper to report but these only help to evidence the car’s honesty further. The underside is also amazing and is exactly as you’d expect for such an original 90s BMW with this mileage. What’s more the car has recently been treated to a full cavity wax and clear underside protection to preserve its remarkable condition. A true survivor and likely the lowest mileage E32 740i we’ll ever see.
INTERIOR
The seats are uniquely trimmed in Ultramarine velour, a standard E32 option but special order (“Sonderwunsch”) on a 740i – and we love it. The front seats are fully electric with additional lumbar support, and they’re heated all round including the rears. The car is further equipped with ice-cold climatic air conditioning, an electric sunroof, electric windows and mirrors, cruise control, electronic dampers, traction control, etc., etc.
As with the exterior of the car the condition of the interior is exquisite. The dash and centre console are absolutely spot-on with no loose trims, and the steering wheel feels like new with a perfect grain to the leather. None of the wood trims show any signs of wear and the carpets are spotless throughout. The boot area is also immaculate with the original BMW cloth still present in the toolkit. For modern convenience a tasteful period-style Blaupunkt head unit is fitted with USB and Bluetooth functionality.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
At the heart of the 740i is a 4-litre V8 engine producing an impressive 282hp. Barely run-in with only 5, 039 miles under its belt the car is a dream to drive. It has just returned from a full mechanical inspection and health check by our trusted classic car workshop who were most impressed with it. As to be expected the engine bay is extremely clean, tidy, and highly original.
HISTORY FILE
Ordered new in Germany by an English gentleman who passed away before taking delivery, this surely unrepeatable 4. 0 V8 E32 was carefully stored by the supplying dealer for first twenty years of its life. Still showing only delivery mileage the car was then purchased by a European collector with whom remained until 2020. It was then recommissioned and enjoyed for a couple of thousand miles before changing hands one final time. The car has now been fully UK-registered by the current owner with all taxes paid on arrival into the country.
The accompanying paperwork comprises original BMW handbooks, an original UK 7 Series brochure, maintenance invoices, import paperwork, spare keys, and the V5C showing 0 former keepers (in the UK).
