8 Series (E31) (1991 - 1997) As the last E24 rolled off the production line in 1989, its replacement was quick on its heels to fulfill the fantasies of those looking for a touring coupe with all of the luxury, performance, and prestige of a BMW, only now with both 8 and 12 cylinder engines.

Some advice please

I would like some advice on the future purchase of an 8 series 840/850.

I know that the 740's had engine problems in the early 90's, was that a problem for the 8's too? What sort of problems might I expect? What maintenance issues do you face regularly or periodically?

I look forward to any advice you can give me on what to watch for!

Thanks.

Lance
