Description of 1991 BMW 8-Series 850i |
|
I have for sale an extremely well maintained 1991 BMW 850i with a clean title in my name. The car is in overall great condition on the exterior and interior. The car is originally a Canadian model so it is in kilometers and was imported by myself and registered in Washington with zero issues as it is over 25 years old. This car is a piece of history and I would like to let it go to someone who will care for it like the previous owners and I have. For individuals that don't know, the car has a v12 engine (M70B50) and this one in particular is mated to a 4 speed automatic. The engine has had extensive maintenance including having a block from a 1992 850i stripped to the pistons and everything replaced and properly lubricated and assembled by a professional BMW shop up in Vancouver (23k miles ago). The car also has a new transmission installed that was from a 1992 BMW 850i that was rebuilt by a transmission shop in Arizona and shipped as they specialize in the rebuild of 8 series parts (26k miles ago). The car also has Shrick cams installed along with having gutted catalytic converters and an aftermarket cat back exhaust that sounds amazing but doesn't drone. The Shrick cams have a large effect on the engine performance especially above 4000 rpms but do not increase the likelihood of excessive wear and tear on drivetrain components. All maintenance and aftermarket upgrades have been performed by mechanics specializing in BMWs. The car also has aftermarket engine and transmission chips which increase both shifting speed and engine response. The wheels are AC Schnitzer's with almost new Michelin tires on all 4 corners. I also have the original turbine wheels (style 9) that will be included with the sale. The car has a folder of associated maintenance documents ranging back all the way to 2000 and the previous owner owned the car for over 10 years. I have a Carfax for the car that I obtained before purchasing the vehicle and it shows zero accidents in the vehicles history. I also have the original driver's manual and 2 keys for the vehicle. Of note the rear bumper was bumped into at low speeds in a parking lot. The 850 was parked and it did no structural damage to the bumper however there is some slight fracturing in the paint. You wouldn'tnotice it unless you were looking for it and nothing is chipped. When I purchased the car I changed the engine oil, front right fog lamp and hood struts as the old ones were worn. If you have any questions on maintenance that has been performed please ask or refer to the attached sheet where I will have most of the documented services listed. The car has no check engine lights however it has check light that indicates a tail lightbulb is out. Everything in the interior functions as it should. All 4 power windows work, both power locks work, electric seat heaters and seat adjustments all function properly, radio and all dash lights work great. The interior seats do show a good deal of wear and some cracking but have not lost how firm they are and I ensure to get in and out of the vehicle with care as to not create more wear. I am also missing the driver side floor mat but I found a guy that can make me one to match the interior so I am working on that. The exterior paint of the car is in very good shape with no door dings or major dents. There is a few paint chips and 3 very small areas where the paint is bubbling but it not spreading as I store the car in a garage and try to never drive it in the rain. The undercarriage is in great shape with very little signs of rust or corrosion. If you have any questions about the car or need any more pictures I will answer/ take them promptly. I care for this care more than any other in my collection because it is a piece of history I would like to keep in fantastic condition. The car may be over 27 years old but it really doesn't show signs of it. The design and is timeless and the options BMW put into this vehicle still have it up to date with current cars on the market. If you are looking at purchasing this vehicle I assume you know what it is and what it is worth. I don't want to just let this vehicle go to anyone so if you contact me please be prompt and forward and I will do the same with you. You might find other 850s or 840s that are priced lower but that is for good reason. They will not have had the care and attention that this car has received and that will only cost you more down the road. I would not hesitate to drive this car across the country and despite what people say this v12 powertrain is a bulletproof design that really isn't that hard to work on and there is a ton of support out there for any known issues. I have disclosed just about everything I can think of offhand because I want you to know exactly what you are getting before you even come look at the car. I don't want you to have any surprises because when I ask a premium price, you should expect a premium vehicle. Here are some video links to the vehicle including an acceleration, walk around, driving and exhaust note.
