This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, Online Auction - 26th June on Thursday the 26th of June. Background: The first 730i model was part of the second-generation 7 Series (E32). It was launched in 1986, alongside the 735i. The E32 730i featured a six-cylinder inline engine and perfectly captures the understated luxury and precise driving dynamics that define BMW’s legacy. The Car: Originally registered in 1987 and supplied by Holland Park LTD in London, this elegant saloon is finished in a refined Diamond Black Metallic paintwork which does look to appear more grey today, paired with a sophisticated blue leather interior. Reported by the current owner to be largely original, with the arches believed to have not been repaired for rust or anything like that. Still retaining its original interior mat and stickers on windscreen etc.  Powered by its 3-litre straight-six engine, specifically the M30B30, producing 185bhp and 190lb/ft of torque, reaching 62mph in 9.3 seconds coupled with automatic gear box. Features include electric windows throughout, air-conditioning and an onboard computer – all hallmarks of late 1980s executive comfort. The car was maintained by Holland Park up until 2004. In 2000, the instrument cluster was replaced due to a fault with the SI board, as documented in the history file. At the time, the odometer showed 30,000 miles; it now displays 43,425 miles. The vehicle remained in the London area until the early 2000s and was acquired by its current owner in 2011. It served as a daily driver for the first few years before transitioning to occasional use, particularly after the shift to working from home. Unfortunately in the current ownership it has had the front drivers wing and bonnet resprayed due to vandalism - someone keyed the wing and bonnet when it was parked on the road and has had some dents pulled out when first purchased. In May 2025, it underwent mechanical attention including new front brake pads, discs, sensors and work on the propshaft. It passed its MOT on 28th May 2025. Offered with its original handbooks, a stamped service book, historical invoices, previous MOT certificates, part of the original toolkit and a spare wheel, this BMW comes with a well documented history. Summary: This E32 BMW 730i represents a refined, low-mileage modern classic, presented in a desirable colour combination and reported to be in highly original condition. With its elegant design, dependable V8 powertrain and spacious, comfortable cabin, it would make a charming companion for retro daily use, relaxed weekend cruising, or long-distance touring.
