BMW 850i, the 12 cylinder beast with ONLY, no typo here, ONLY 54,280 and a 2 owner vehicle. Why so few miles. In 1992 a ___ year old owner of World Oil Corp in California bought it. He was loaded to the degree that he had a chaufer and used this car EXTREMELY infrequently. When I bought it the car had on it 49,000-51,00 miles I don’t exactly remember but it was either slightly under or over 50k miles. He was 92 years old when I bought it from him in 2010 ish. He sold it because at 92 he and his wife had a hard time getting out of it. It was and still is flawless with 3 minor, none mechanical issues. Drivers seat, left side towards the back, previous owner used a cane so there is a nickel size hole in the leather. Back passenger seat has some discoloration but not via heat related issues. The leather is good. To fix the hole in the seat and redye is $1200. I priced it. I left it as is since the hole is nickel size and the back seat discoloration is mild and basically the back seat, if you know these cars, is unusable. Top of the sunroof, about the size of a quarter, slight indentation due to a tennis ball hitting it. It was not a golf ball so the depth is not deep and can probably be pulled out, and no paint removed since it was a tennis ball. Front hood, 2 chips from our constant Arizona road pebbles. One is about the size of a pencil eraser, other is about half the size. You could pull the one on the sunroof and touch up the 2 but I left as is, never bothered me. The paint is AWESOME, which is why I didn’t touch up the hood. Beyond that it is flawless. I have had it maintained at an import car specialist in Arizona that you will be provided the name to so you can validate or get your own inspector. It is flawless. AC works great and was converted to the new equipment. Always the correct oil at the correct mileage. Shifts perfectly. As with all 850’s the computer read out has some pixels missing but is readable and works including the ignition shut off. Windows work perfectly, light pop up perfectly, Tires have over 80% tread life. Radio perfect including weather band and in trunk CD player works on all slots. Heated seats work, cruise works, basically no mechanical issues at all. Recent tune up, oil change, thermostat, fan check up, new fuel pumps (both sides), newer batterys (1 year old). That should do it. Reason I am selling is I am moving from Phoenix to New York City and this car would be beat up both by weather and New York City taxi and normal traffic. Just not practical to have in the city. Buying a knock around old school Jeep to replace it. Oh yes, ZERO rust, ALWAYS a California and now an Arizona car, 2 owner.
