    Default SOT: I know of a rare 745 for sale

    Its the old factory turbo model.
    The guy has had it for a while and now wants to sell it.
    Shogun: this might interest you?

    It would have to be an E32? It was the "other turbo" that came from the factory (the 2002 turbo was the first). I believe it has a 3.5 in it with a little pump attached and going by the calculations it came to be a 745.
    I saw a write up on this compared to the newer 745 in BMW Car mag a couple of years ago.
    Suppose I should have taken more notice of what I was reading.

    E23, passed on an opportunity to buy one years ago because I didn't know what it was. Kicking myself since.

    I wonder sometimes as to if the only reason you moved to Japan were the highlines! Way to act on a dream and fulfill it, jeez. lol

    Anyways, I'm angry there aren't even any E32 highlines here... :-/

    Richard at The Oldtimer Centre had an E23 745i for sale about a year ago. It was a south African import with the M5 motor in it. Looked interesting with the leather dash etc etc
