The E23 BMW 7 Series range is firmly established as a modern classic. The E23 offers the opportunity to drive a classically styled car that has at least a sprinkling of the sort of modern safety and convenience features we've all come to know, love, and rely on. In this case that means an anti-lock braking system (the first BMW to be so equipped), an on-board computer and check control panel, a heating system, and double-link front suspension for sure-footed, high-speed travel. All of which is fitted to a beautiful three-box body with that beguiling 'shark nose' front end. Powered by a series of world-renowned straight-six engines, its credentials are so solid that the only wonder is why it took the E23 so long to establish itself as one of the most desirable youngtimers out there.
