Comments from the seller

I have here for sale my beautiful BMW 850Ci, a true modern classic, and one of the most iconic grand tourers ever made. With its silky-smooth M70 V12 and timeless styling, this car represents a golden era of BMW. This particular example is finished in Calypso Red, which suits the car perfectly and complements its long, low silhouette and pillarless coupe design. The car is very well kept and presents in great condition both inside and out for its age. The light coloured interior is well paired with the Calypso Red, and in good condition for its age, with minimal wear on the usual touch points. Mechanically, it’s in great shape. It starts effortlessly, idles smoothly, and pulls like a train. The 4 speed auto gearbox shifts as it should, and overall, the car feels solid and composed. Overall there are no major issues to report, with near new tyres, and new batteries just installed. Please call me to discuss in detail. All inspections welcome.
