AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare 1996 BMW 850 CI Individual V12 (1st OWNER)

Bodywork and Paint:

This beautiful BMW has a very nice paint finish, and has recently been touched up in a few areas. The front bumper was previously somewhat damaged, and this has been expertly repainted and repaired.

The wheels have also been fully machined and newly refinished recently. Unfortunately, one headlight glass is broken.

Technical condition:

The BMW is in technically good condition, it runs and drives fantastically and shifts well through its gears. The batteries have recently been replaced. The service book is present and dealer serviced. It currently requires a service. Think along the lines of fresh oil, etc.

The airbag light on the dashboard is on, and some pixels in the displays should be repaired. This is normal for BMWs of this age.

Interior condition:

The interior is very neat and superbly finished with beautiful wood accents and luxurious seats. Everything else electrical works, the roof opens and closes, the lighting all works. Only the seats sometimes refuse, they are electronically operated.

Documentation:

The car comes with a lot of documentation; it was bought from the dealer. Up to now it has been with the 1st owner and this owner has always taken very good care of it, which is visible.

Also the price lists and various other papers accompany the car, as well as extra side supports and the original BMW battery charger.

The BMW is equipped with a registered Dutch license plate and can optionally be sold to export documents by us.

In short, a very rare specification of the beautiful 850ci

Worldwide transport, can be arranged by us. contact for a quote

The car is viewable in Dedemsvaart, Netherlands

BMW 850Ci Individual — 1996

British Racing Green • 5.4 V12 • Handcrafted Luxury

This 1996 BMW 850Ci Individual represents the absolute pinnacle of luxury and exclusivity within the legendary E31 series.

Within the exclusive BMW Individual program, customers had the option to tailor their car completely to their personal preferences — with unique colors, special materials and exclusive finishes produced only in very small quantities. This makes every Individual version unique of its kind.

This specimen is finished in the rare British Racing Green, combined with a luxurious interior featuring wooden dashboard inlay. A stylish and timeless combination that perfectly suits the character of this special grand tourer.

Under the long hood lies the impressive 5.4-liter V12 engine with 326 hp. The silky-smooth running, effortless power and the distinctive sound make every drive a unique experience. In an era without turbos, this engine stood for pure mechanical perfection and refinement.

Additionally, this 850Ci originally came with an exclusive BBS wide-set wheels, which further emphasize the powerful and elegant appearance.

Special features:
• BMW Individual model
• Only 6 units produced in this color combination
• Approximately 1200 units equipped with wooden dashboard inlay
• Originally delivered on BBS wide-set wheels
• Iconic pop-up headlights and timeless E31 design

An icon from the 1990s.
Rare, stylish and built for true enthusiasts.
