Iconic BMW 850i (E31) with a 5.0 V12 engine — one of BMW’s most impressive 1990s grand tourers. This rare and stylish model is finished in Mauritius Blue Metallic. Limited production with approximately 30,621 E31 units built, including around 20,072 V12 850i and 850Ci examples.
The BMW 850i (E31) was a technological flagship in the early 1990s and remains one of the most iconic Gran Turismo cars of its era. Featuring a powerful V12 engine, a long bonnet, and a futuristic design, the 8 Series was BMW’s top model above the 7 Series, competing with Europe’s most exclusive luxury coupés. Its combination of comfort, performance, and timeless styling makes the 850i especially popular among high-end 1990s youngtimer enthusiasts.
This example presents in good original, unrestored condition with an honest overall impression. Points of attention are detailed in the check-in report prepared by our Oldtimerfarm inspection team, which includes an expertise report.
