I purchased this 1992 BMW 850i in 10/2008 with 95,732 miles. It now has 98,353 miles on it. My intent was to make this a show car and only take it to car shows. With two kids that are getting older, I can no longer afford to keep her. As you can tell, I didn't drive the car much. I kept it in the garage all the time and wiped it down, replaced parts as projects, and drove it around the block a few times just to get some air. I did drive the car from St Louis to Chicago & back on an occasion and she drove GREAT!!! The more I drove the car, the more it wanted to be driven. This is a great car and whoever gets it will be very happy! You can also tell, I spent hundreds of hours detailing and cleaning the engine. The V12 engine had to show well if I were to take it to a car show. This car has new German manufactured windshield (not cheap glass) (took months to get cleared for windshield), K&N Filters, new fuel filters, rebuilt carbon filter, new cabin filters NGK spark plugs, new upper & low oil pan gaskets, new front L & R lower control arms, new front wheel bearings, 2 new batteries, new brake fluid, new belts, Supersprint exhaust w performance chips, K40 radar detector, new rotors and distributor caps, new head liner and refinished interior (very tastefully done). The air conditioner does works!! It just needs to be recharged with the R12 but it is so hard to come by. Feel free to convert it over, but I preferred the R12. The cars does show some wear; especially on the roof. When I purchased the car, the owner kept it under a tarp (not sure why) as he didnt drive it after his wife passed away. The nose has a crack as you can see on the picture, and I think the alternator may be bad. Not sure because I havent driven the car in over a year.. I would pull it out, wipe it off and pull it back into the garage. The car stayed clean! The car also needs an alignment after new control arms and wheel bearings. I later found out that when I took the seats out to redo them and clean the carpet, I should have disconnected the batteries. As a result, the SRS light is on. Who knew.. Other than that, everything works on the car. My next project was the BMW Alpine alarm install. I have two of them (used) and will throw them in for free with all other stuff I find in the garage since I will no longer need them. If you have any questions, please email me. You can leave your number and I will call you on lunch or after work. This is a great car that I really hate to part with.
