What does he do for a job
At the time he worked for the Police but thats unrelated to the spec of the car it just was specced beyond belief, double glazing and blinds all round, champange cooler etc etc
He sold it off as soon as he found it was clocked and actually had circa 220k miles

Love it
There was an R-reg 728i at a local garage with sub 100k miles on for £4k. It was nearly that or the Grande Punto

Personally I love the Alpina stuff.
If i bought a Z4 would get the alpina, not that much slower then the Z4M and you dont get stung for the mega tax either.

I've always hankered after an Alpina.
Hold value well too.

Imagine being given £100 only to realise it will fill the tank up once and only get you 350 miles max

My dad was putting £90 a week in his 740 at one point and he was doing no more than 250 miles out of it. It was costing him probably £75-80 a week just to go to work and back for his 4 on
Was a boss car though. I will own a 7 one day

It's not a fucking barge! 
It's a fucking car!
A barge is a big fucking thing that floats down the Thames!
It only seems like a barge if you are a massive fucking gay and have never driven anything bigger than an atom!
Try driving a Rolls Royce Phantom V LWB or a big old Cadilac or a massive Oldsmobile or a Lincoln Continental/Town Car or similar and then see how barge-like a paltry Seven Series seems.

I found out today my bosses Dad swoons about in a 740i. He was showing me round it today and I couldn't believe the spec of it! CHAMPANE COOLER was
He was telling me it does about 300 miles to £100
Such a understated car though!
