1986 BMW 735i

Estimated at £12,000 - £15,000

Lot details

Registration No: D735 HWU
Chassis No: WBAFH820307874104
MOT: April 2025

  • 115,000 miles from new and just 3 former keepers over the last 38 years
  • Number plate was selected by the original dealer to match the model
  • Folder of invoices and service book with over 20 entries plus over £7,000 spent over last 5 years

This last production BMW 735i from the E23 era stands out as a remarkable specimen of luxury and performance. Beneath its hood lies the renowned 3. 4-litre M30 inline-6 power plant, delivering 218bhp to the rear wheels through the four-speed automatic transmission.

Elegantly finished in the striking Cosmos Blue Metallic (185) with a Pacific velour interior, this UK-supplied 735i shows only three keepers recorded on the V5C. First registered in 1986, the 735i initially served as a demonstrator vehicle for G. Eric Hunt (BMW) Ltd. ‘D735 HWU’ was carefully selected by the supplying dealership to match the model. In 1989, it was subsequently sold to a gentleman who would serve as its custodian for the next 30 years.

Equipped well for the era, it also has a leather M-Tech 1 steering wheel fitted. Today the 735i has the very rare 17" BBS RZ412 alloys, which cost in excess of £2,000. In 2019, recommissioning included the installation of a new radiator, ABS pressure sensor, fuel lines and hoses. The air conditioning system was upgraded to utilise R134a. In recent years, the suspension has been refreshed with Bilstein B6 dampers - enhancing the car’s handling and cornering capabilities, a contemporary yet discreet Pandora alarm and immobiliser system has been installed - featuring a shock sensor along with remote and mobile phone locking/unlocking capabilities. The history file contains extensive MOT history and a service book with 20 entries. The car has always been stored in a garage, which contributes to its exceptional condition. It is offered with a folder of invoices and receipts for over £7,000 expenditure in the last 5 years.
