    Can anyone post the link to that wonderful UK website where all they sell is E38 7 series? Google is drawing a blank!

    Cheers.

    Why not use AutoTrader and just specify your search results? Are 5 extra clicks really that hard?

    //edit: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/search/used/cars/bmw/7_series/postcode/se265lj/radius/1500/sort/priceasc/maximum-age/over_10_years_old/price-to/5000 - there, even did the search for you...

    Must not use rolleyes...;)

    What makes you think I'm looking for Autotrader?

    I'm looking for a particular 7 series UK based website that has been linked to here a number of times, though that was apparent from my post!

    Can't help you on name but I think it was a specialist site for importing from Japan or something?

    Cheers, think it was called 7 Heaven or something, they only seemed to sell E38's, and the best of them too.

    It's not a phone, its a hooker disciplinary tool :D
    Really cool that they have a site dedicated to well looked after e38s
    That '01 750iL is lovely. Widescreen Nav + sports steering wheel and highline trim.

    I've been thinking my next car will be an XJR (V8), but I keep coming back to the 750 even though its less powerful. Ah well, I have another couple of years with the S80 to decide :)

    Great site, I'll have the V8 please http://www.ultimate7.co.uk/MT51%20YHN/MT51%20YHN.html

    Not too keen on the 750i with the blue interior, the stripes in the carpet are really noticeable http://www.ultimate7.co.uk/T815%20HRV/T815%20HRV.html

    Funny enough, that 740i has been on the site the longest of any of the cars in the last 2 years, its been there for well over 6 months. The high-ish mileage is probably the off-putter, the price has come down too.

    Its also a low spec for a 740i which is a shame.

    That 750i is the one I was a few days away from buying when it sold, the stripes are just valet marks, the matts would be in the boot.

    You would have to wonder how he makes a living purely out of selling 7's. I know he may have a name for it, but at the same time he's still in a very limited market.

    Some lovely pictures of the in the "Gallery". Even a red one!

    Do those phones actually work with a SIM?


  • #21

    He makes a living from it by buying them for nothing, spending a few weeks getting the paint and leather in top condition and selling them on.

    Example, he offered me £2700 for mine which is in top condition, he'd sell it for £4995 easy. Nearly every car on there is gone inside 8 weeks.

    And yes the phones still work with regular SIMs, Digifone shows up on mine. :)

    Bought mine nearly 8 years ago. Back then I think I was the only E38 owner on boards :)

    It's surprising to see that there is a dealer who specialises in only one specific generation of BMW 7 Series.

    That chap selling the 7's has set up a tidy little business. Speaking from experience the cars he sells are top quality. He knows them inside out also.

    After buying mine from him I rang him about 6 months later about something on the car. I was only looking for advice on where best to get a LCM for her and he told me he had one on the shelf and put it in the post the next day. Now thats service!

    Can I ask how you went about getting it back to Ireland? (Assuming you are here)

    Best way I could see was to fly into London City Airport and get a taxi to them.

    http://www.gmscars.co.uk/ also got a few nice ones on the site.

    I do like the 750's or even a 760li but think of the mileage and would I need a peaked cap to drive it?:D
