The BMW 8 Series was introduced in 1989 as the marque's flagship grand touring model, representing a considerable investment in engineering, technology and design. With its pillarless profile, pop-up headlamps and beautifully appointed interior, the E31 offered a distinctive blend of performance and refinement. The 840Ci, introduced later in the model's life, employed BMW's silky-smooth 4.4 litre V8, providing effortless performance in keeping with the car's long-distance touring credentials. The desirable Sport specification further enhanced its purposeful appearance.
This 840Ci Sport has covered just 55,000 miles from new and has been in the current ownership for the past ten years, during which time it has covered approximately 2,000 miles and hasn't spent a single night out of our vendors heated garage during all of that time. The history file is accompanied by a service book containing 14 stamps, together with a collection of older MoT test certificates and maintenance invoices, documenting a good service history during its earlier years. More recent attention has included the replacement of the headlining and starter motor, while a new radiator was fitted in 2018. The car has also received occasional oil and filter changes, with the most recent recorded in August 2026.
An increasingly distinctive modern classic, the 840Ci Sport remains an appealing proposition, combining BMW's superb V8 refinement with elegant styling and genuine grand touring ability. With modest mileage, a lengthy period in the same ownership and a useful history file, this is an attractive example of BMW's flagship coupe. Consigned by Fraser Smith
