After great success on the Z3 M coupe I worked on a few months back the owner has now handed over another rare classic for me to give a little loving to, excuse the multitude of pics that Im about to post but I have dreamed of owning one of these since 1991 when I saw one for the first time at the Rand Easter show.













































She's missing one horn.


New pads and new brake fluid will be done, discs will also be checked.


Small oil leak from the gearbox.


Previous owner had the cats removed, will be corrected as the job was poor.


Clouded Flash-To-Pass light needed cleaning internally.

Wow beautiful, I sat in an 850i way back when they were introduced, we never got the 840ci as far as can remember.

Elanor of the BMW fraternity. As a kid/teenager all my friends had posters of Ferraris and Lamborghinis on their walls, I had one of these and an E36 BTCC. Still got the BTCC poster.
