Basic information and History
The BMW 850i was introduced in 1990 and was produced until 1999 as part of the BMW 8 Series.
The model had a distinctive and timeless design, with a long sweeping bonnet, contemporary pop-up headlights and a streamlined body. It offered a 2+2 seating configuration in an elegant coupe designed body.

This example was sold new in Germany and imported in 1999 to Sweden. During its time here in Sweden, the car has had 5 users.

The model came equipped originally with a 5.0L V12 that produced a modest 300hp. In this case, the machine broke and previous owners chose to create a real sleeper by upgrading the entire drivetrain but keeping the original design of the car.
