The Appeal
It’s clear to see why the 8 Series managed to turn so many heads on release. Luxury in a long-nosed tourer with pop-up headlights, plenty of creature comforts and - of course - that whopping great V12 under the bonnet. They were a huge hit, and remain enormously aspiration to this day.
This example is like a charming time capsule, still carrying its Becker radio and still full of charisma. If you’re after a 90s V12-powered classic, you’d have difficulty finding a better one.
