840Ci for 6 grand!

Recommended Posts

Must be something wrong with it for price to be that low. Good for the V8 gearbox and wheels perhaps?

Mileage perhaps, aged interior?

Other than looks pretty mint.

Was thinking about posting this

Same motor as mine (only about half the kms ;) ) - they're expecting 8'ish grand at auction no? Interior's not mint but M60 and 6 speed = win for some brave soul

You mean 395,000km mate ;)

Nothing too major. Clutch, radiator, odds and sods - always been regularly serviced. Still pulls pretty hard

Ha 380 last time i saw ya, you must do some ks in that thing.

So basically just wear and tear items, pretty reliable if you ask me, that 840 should be well worht the money then.

Ahh crap was seriously considering it :(

I had a feeling a stock manual was a bit "too good to be true".

Dude you are right, they are rare in manual. All up 57 were evidently manual in RHD in the 840i /840ci (out of approx. 1,000). Rare car if it was legit. This car sounds like a orphan. But for that price however, who cares!

I'm going to register with turners and see if I can get it cheaply for the parts I need (rear suspension basically, and wheels if they are genuine)

Then resell parts on here for the engine and gearbox and what ever else people are after. It'd be appreciated if no other bimmersport members bid on it, and if anyone is interested in the gearbox or something else please PM me.

well i know a few people that will be bidding on it ,. including the last owner who did the conversion before it got repo'd from him because previous owner owed money on it .

he wants it back so he can finish the work on it and then try and beat the money out of the guy who ripped him off .

Hey Brad you don't like your t/stars on your 840csi?

Would you look to replace your wheels with the M-Parallels for good, or do just want another set of wheels? I'd like a set of M-parallels too. I think being 18's they fill out the arches great on the E31.

I bid up to 8500, but the bidding was going pretty quick and I figured it was just going to keep going up. I wouldn't have had the cash for it at $9.5k or so. But anyways....

ssbmw - I have an 850CSi :) I have the original 17x8 and 17x9 Throwing Stars and I think I will keep them because they are rare in that size. I am after a set of original 18x8.5 and 18x9.5" M-Par's or the big wide 18x10.5" Alpina's with matching fronts.

Interesting - does anyone know who ended up buying this car?

That has got to be a steal for someone!

Brad - yeah I know your car; have seen it at BM Workshop Botany. I saw a 840 in the same colour as your colour a few years ago in Auckland and have never seen it again. It had style 5's like most of the 840's.

REgards, SS
