This BMW 850 was delivered new in Heldelberg in Germany on October 25, 1990 and its service book shows the first services at this same garage. Technical inspections were regular until April 2022. Its mileage is extremely low today with only 39,500 km since leaving the factory. Its condition is impressive. The black leather interior shows no signs of wear, and its bodywork is immaculate. It has a sunroof, which is a great feature in such a timelessly elegant coupé, yet it is already 32 years old but has not aged a bit. The 850i represents the flagship of the Munich manufacturer's range. When it was launched, this model was very technologically avant-garde and featured high performance combined with refined comfort. The 850 received a 5-liter V12 engine that was already fitted to the 750 sedan and which developed 300bhp, mated to a six-speed manual gearbox or a four-speed automatic transmission. It reached 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds, which was brilliant for a machine of its weight, and its top speed was electronically limited to 250 km/h. Designed at BMW under the supervision of Claus Luthe, it had a very elegant body, long and slim, which suggested comfort and opulence at the same time as a certain sportiness. The cabin was spacious and able to accommodate four adults in good conditions, with a luxurious layout and generously equipped with quality leather. The 8 Series did not meet the manufacturer's sales expectations and was therefore not replaced, making it one of the rarer BMWs. This example is in superb condition with its low mileage and is being delivered with all its manuals and booklet.
