Description

Launched in 2003, BMW's E60-generation 5 Series represented a significant evolution for the marque, combining advanced technology, executive refinement and impressive performance. Sitting near the top of the range, the 550i was powered by BMW's naturally aspirated 4.8-litre V8, producing 367bhp and offering effortless performance with excellent long-distance touring ability. Alongside its standard production models, BMW also developed specialist Security vehicles, incorporating discreet ballistic protection for diplomatic services, government agencies and other high-profile clients.

This exceptionally unusual BMW 550i Security is believed to have been factory-built to VR4 armoured specification as part of BMW's E60 Security programme. Despite its 2006 manufacture date, it remained in diplomatic storage for approximately ten years before being first registered on 1st December 2016. It has subsequently covered just 9,475 warranted miles from new and has had only three registered keepers.

Retaining its discreet appearance, the car incorporates laminated ballistic glass, reinforced armoured doors, strengthened body construction and heavy-duty suspension and chassis components designed to accommodate the additional weight. Its V5 registration document records an unladen weight of 2,015kg, substantially above that of a standard 550i and consistent with its specialist specification.

Factory-armoured BMWs of this generation are rarely encountered on the open market, particularly with such remarkably low mileage. Combining the performance of BMW's V8-powered executive saloon with the intriguing engineering of a purpose-built Security vehicle, this fascinating example offers a highly unusual proposition for BMW enthusiasts and specialist collectors alike.
