Description
"MAGNIFICENT SEVEN and possibly the best-kept example in existence " As described in Total BMW Magazine 2024 Summer edition.
Here is my one family owner BMW E32 730i V8 (wide-grill) with having just past a warranted 8000 miles presented in as-new condition.
HISTORY: Supplied new by MLG BMW Chiswick in March 1994 to my late Grandfather having traded in his low mileage Rolls Royce which remained in his ownership until May 2023. Sadly due to my age of my grandad from 2008 the car had been carefully dry-stored in a heated dehumidified garage.
The sympathetic recommissioning of the car has included a full-service including 8x Hella coil packs and spark plugs, oil, air, cabin and fuel filter, overhauled brakes and changed fresh brake fluid, waterpump and coolant change, fuel pump, 2x O2 sensors, replaced both v-belts, replaced crank shaft and cam shaft sensors, brand new Varta battery and four new correct size 225/ 60 R15 Falken Tyres (Falken are partners of the original Dunlops the D40 tyres are no longer available).
The service book is present and a A4 folio comprises of the old MOT’s, emission tests results, all BMW parts receipts comes with car to warrant the mileage, also present are all the years the car was SORNed and previous tax disc. Current test expires 15 September 2025 with no advisories ever in its history.
SPECIFICATION Orient Blue (317) Metallic paint with Parchment leather, 3. 0 litre V8 engine, graduated tinted screen, shadowline de-chrome, black dashboard, electric memory seats, automatic air conditioning (working and ice cold), fine wood trim, front driver and passenger armrests, from factory front and rear parking sensors, lumbar support driver and passenger, HiFi speaker system, BMW tape and 6 CD changer, electric adjustable headlamps with washer system, cruise control, on-board computer, servotronic steering, BMW Cross Spoke 29 light alloy wheels, 4x electric windows, electric sunroof, electric mirrors, unused full-size spare wheel, BMW mudflaps, front fog-lights, drivers airbag, switchable transmission.
CONDITION: Having won a BMW concourse event in 2023 this E32 730i V8 is likely the best and most outstanding original condition available. Throughout the bodywork and bumpers there are no dents or scratches or marks, the alloys are unmarked (except where the old rim mounted weights were). The car still has its original brake pads and discs with minimal wear evident (supporting the low mileage). The wheel arches and mudflaps are perfect.
The interior is beautiful with no shiny steering wheel, no rips, no splits, tears or marks on the seats, even the drivers bolster is firm and unmarked as are the BMW mats, the glovebox torch is present and working. Roof lining -perfect. All door rubbers are in perfect condition. There is no rust anywhere on the car and the headlamps are crystal clear, working electric headlight adjuster (commonly found disconnected).
Under the bonnet presents as-new with factory wax still present in all correct places. The boot area is also in pristine condition with original complete tool kit, and under the car matches the top having never been taken out by me or my Grandad in the rain or salted roads. The engine starts on the turn of the key without hesitation and runs very sweetly with a lovely V8 burble. The Automatic transmission moves through all the gears smoothly, there are no knocks or suspicious noises, the optional sports-mode automatic transmission switch unleashes the full potential of the engine when required. All original parts have been kept and will come with the car as they were only replaced for future proofing against common E32 faults.
The car came to my ownership with the aim of ensuring this E32 was in perfect order prior to making the her available for market and having driven 300miles in her over the past 1 year without fault she is now ready for her next custodian. There is RAC vehicle history check that will come with car which is completely clean.
The appeal - A great investment opportunity to own possibly the best example E32 left in the world, ready to show or win more Concourse events.
The price reflects this unrepeatable condition- open to near offers, this is a collectors car!Long MOT until Sept 2025****
Last of the finest E32 produced V8 shadowline.
1 family owner - 2 recorded keepers Grandfather and myself.
Warranted mileage- just passing 8000miles from new.
Concourse winning condition.
A collectors car that is unlikely to be repeated.
Completely advisory free MOT history with perfect emissions.
Completely original.
Total BMW Magazine featured and described her as if not better then when left the dealership and possibly the best-kept example in existence, perfectly preserved.
