Introduction
Alan Stuart
The E31 8 Series was a masterclass from BMW, with engineering and styling ahead of its time.
Being the first generation of the 8 Series, the BMW E31 took many great features and styling from previous incarnations of its models. As a refined grand tourer, comfort and design were at the forefront of BMW decision making with performance a big consideration. This is reflected in the monstrous 5.0L V12 engine that the BMW manages to tame under the bonnet. With a 4 speed automatic gearbox, the car is comfortable cruising along covering motorway miles and equally happy in around short town trips.
This 850 Ci comes to market with relatively few miles being added to the clock over its ownership with just over ~200 miles being covered in the last 5 years. It has been in current ownership for ~16 years, and it's not to say that the car hasn't been loved during this time, considerate work has been a part of the BMW's maintenance including the suspension being rebuilt and the underside of the car having considerable restoration given to it to bring it up to a great standard. Alongside this work, the diff and the bearings and seals on the prop shaft have also had work carried out to them. The 850 Ci comes to market with a great looking interior with grey leather electric seating - contrasted with a glorious "Calypso Metallic Red" exterior finish and a recent MOT being covered off ready for its new owner.
