Hi. I currently own a 5 series tourer and am thinking of PXing for an 8 Series Grand Coupe max 2-4 year old. I’ve had the 5 series for 7 years bought with 40k on the clock. It now has 207k. I’m not a petrol head but would like any opinions on how good and reliable the 8 Series is. I will not be putting the sort of mileage that I have done on my 5 series.
What was the biggest plus point for the switch? I have a 840i gran Coupe but wondering if I’m missing out on the v8.
The v8 lol it’s so nice and smooth and super quick. Just a tune and you’re as fast as an m8 comp or faster. It just sounds so good too. Don’t get me wrong the b58 in the 840i is also an amazing engine but just seems slightly underpowered for such a heavy car.
