Giraffe is on a distinguished road
Default BMW E38 750iL V12 powa

Ok, I'm relying on Matt for photos but basically I put a cheeky £1,200 bid on ebay for a local 750iL thinking I'd be outbid massively... I was very wrong!

Basically it has 244k miles (ebay said 200 haha) and basically it has a full mot and it's amazing for what it is! Nigh on everything works, 2 new batteries, really good alloys and tyres are ok, runs sweet as a nut, bit rough on the outside.

Matt, photos please!

Don't think you can get manual e38's. Fuel consumption is terrible, predictably. Never mind!

Matt took all the pics, I'm pestering him.

Had new wishbones in 2011, new fuel tank and rear suspension in 2009 (hasnt been driven since 2011) so really I've got VERY lucky. Gonna service it and tidy it up and enjoy it I think!

Correction.

It's so baller, it has TWO sooper hamazin built in mobile phones.

And power blinds.

And double glazed windows

and electric rear seats.

and a V12.

Dave appears, on the face of it, to have won at barges.

I do appear to have done something right here.

Two phones, so your rear seat passengers don't have to reach forwards to make their phone calls. Not that they'd be able to reach anyway they're so far back! Makes the picnic tables POINTLESS because you can't reach them!

EDIT: Moar pics of A6 needed!
EDIT 2: Heated rear seats that may or may not heat up, but the buttons are there dammit. And fully operational sunroof! And satnav, that for some reason wanted to go to Spain...
