BMW 8 Series 840i

The 840i sits at the accessible end of BMW's 8 Series range, but this particular example is specified well beyond the base car. The BMW Individual Extended Merino Leather in black-black and Alcantara Anthracite headlining are factory-fitted upgrades that genuinely elevate the cabin — the kind of specification detail that matters on a grand tourer where you spend real time. M Seat Belts, Sun Protection Glazing, and Comfort Access complete a spec sheet put together with some thought. At 39,256 miles from a 2020 registration, it's covered reasonable distance without being heavily used for its age.

The B58 3.0-litre turbocharged straight-six delivers 335bhp and 500ft-lb of torque, channelled through the Steptronic automatic to the rear wheels, with a 155mph ceiling. The Technology Package brings adaptive cruise control and a 360-degree camera, while front and rear parking sensors with a dedicated parking assistant add daily usability. It's the relaxed end of the 8 Series range — no all-wheel drive, no V8 — but that makes it the lighter, more driver-focused choice for those who don't need the M850i's excess.

At £29,950, this is a competitive price for an 8 Series coupe with Individual interior options. The grand tourer proposition holds up well at this mileage, and the factory-specified cabin materials mean the interior hasn't aged in the way a standard-spec example might.
