BMW 7-Series 735i SE 4d Auto (1990/G) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Excellent car for the money. FULLY loaded and build quality is excellent.
Costs
Ouch! Be rich to own one and if you need to ask how much it costs to run one, then don't have one.

Driving
Auto is a joy to drive. Even for a large car, handling is taught and precise. Can be a bit tail-happy.
Performance
3.5-litre goes like stink, even on auto box. Good tyre smoking qualities.

Living with it
Reliability
Reliability is very good until it does go wrong.
Image
Still quite a sharp looking car. Much better than the E23. Put a private plate on and most people won't tell the age.
Comfort
A car with genuine padded arm rests - what more can you say?

Security and Service
Security
Later models had the Thatcham approved immobiliser fitted.
