SUMMARY
A fine, low-mileage example of BMW's timeless pillarless coupé from long-term ownership.
DESCRIPTION
- Packed with electronic innovations, BMW defined its target market with the seminal 840Ci
- The second generation cars were powered by the M62 4.4-litre V8 offering 282bhp, 310lb/ft, 155mph and 0-60 in 6.5 seconds
- The 4.4-litre Sport offered a better driving experience with considerably more torque
- This superb example is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic, which really suits those long sculpted pillarless flanks
- Superbly designed cabin finished in sumptuous Black Nappa leather
- Purchased new from Elms BMW in Bedford on 23/03/1998, equipped with an electric sunroof, air-conditioning, computer, electric windows, in-car entertainment (radio/cassette) and heated seats
- Accompanied by a detailed history file including its original BMW service book, MOT to July 2024
- Full BMW service history to 2008, then specialists. Most recent service on 01/07/2023 @ 54,201 miles (Current 54,327)
- Recent front-end paint refresh to deal with stone chips
- These big 8-Series coupés are hugely capable with continent-covering ability and are just turning the corner in terms of collectability
