The vendor has provided the following

1989 BMW 730i SE Auto in dark blue with a cream interior, in totally original condition.

  • My late uncle's pride and joy, in his ownership from 1992. Only 2 owners from new. 134k miles, less than 4k in last 4 years
  • Spent many a day out being admired at Brooklands Motor Museum. Long-time BMW Owners club member, having previously had a lovely 5 series. The car is logged with the 7 series register
  • Dry stored from late 2017, when my uncle was not able to drive it due to ill health. Repeated suggestions from the family to sell it fell on deaf ears, and he passed away a few months ago, knowing he owned a cracking BWW. It really was his pride and joy
  • Photos were part of a pack that went to Heritage to agree on an insurance value
  • The car deserves to find a new owner, and the family is hoping for bids from those who really appreciate these classic BMWs
