1984 BMW E23 7 Series 735 | Bagshot, Surrey

This is a 1984 BMW E23 7 Series 735, from the first 7 Series and BMW's flagship saloon of its day. It is known for a broad, formal four-door shape, a smooth 3.5-litre six-cylinder engine and an early on-board computer with a warning panel, which were advanced for the 1980s. This car is black with a cream interior, a classic executive pairing that reads clearly on camera. It is in excellent condition and has an automatic gearbox, where the model was usually fitted with a manual, so the drive between set-ups is smooth and easy. It seats four. The upright, formal body suits 1980s period film and TV, advertising and photography, where a black executive saloon places a scene in the boardroom era. Music video and editorial shoots can use the cream interior and long, clean lines. Weddings and personal hires get a dignified arrival. The car is based in Bagshot, Surrey.
