Offered for sale is this svelte Orient Blue BMW 728i, with beige electric leather interior. Resting on a set of 18" wheels, with dark lights fitted, this E38 is a nice fresh modern-retro executive.
As an entry level car it comes with standard heating and no obtrusive car-phone in the arm-rest. Four electric windows, central locking, electric mirrors and on-board computer are standard. The radio has been upgraded to a CD player that is hidden away under the retractable wood-veneer cover. There are built in cupholders fore and aft and the electric front seats make it easy to find a comfortable driving position.
The desirable M52B28 engine produces 193bhp and drives a 5 speed ZF automatic transmission, which operates smoothly. The car has also been converted to LPG for lower running costs, with the tank hidden in the spare wheel well. There is a spare wheel with the car, which is encased in a soft cover within the bootspace, which is large enough to easily accommodate it. The car has a big-brake upgrade as well, a leak-free fuel tank and only 129,400 miles are recorded on the clocks, which do not suffer from the typical pixel problems.
The suspension is in good order, with the benefit of lowering springs improving the looks of the car without hampering the supple ride. The tyres are the correct profile for the car, on 18" wheels which seem to suit the car well. The exhaust is quiet and the body appears corrosion-free.
The exterior paintwork is good, with no obvious marks or dents, and no lacquer peel or damage. The chromework is bright and unmarked. The lights are all functional, with the indicators front and side and the rear lights all being upgraded for tinted versions.
This 728i is a tidy example, with the usability of LPG, a good colour combination, low-ish mileage, and not only a full MOT on sale but three months driveline warranty as well. Ready to go!
