Hello,
Some time ago, Richard Lofthouse, an English journalist, came to the Geneva Motor Show and took the opportunity to take some pictures of my 850CSi.
An article has been published in the July issue of the magazine "Straight Six" from the BMW Car Club UK.
I do not have a scanner, but here are some of the pictures taken by him:
Regards,
Alex

Fantastic pics of a fantastic car!
-
Is that an original interior? Pretty funky.
Whats the sticker on your speedo?
-
Yes, it's an original Individual interior.
The speedo sticker states something like "Unleaded Fuel Only, Minimum 95 ROZ"
The car has now 45'000 km.
The article took a while to be published.
Cheers

Ups...
31.500 km when the pictures where taken and now 45.000 km?
You drove 13.500 km in that little while and before almost (below 3.000 km p.a.) nothing?
That's inflationary... -
The pictures were taken in March 2007 (if I remember correctly).
I purchased the car in December 2006 with around 29'000 km.

Hello Alex,
I read the article in the mag with great interest. You have a lovely car there. Pleased to see the pic's, some of which are better than those in the article IMHO.
Cheers

Zitat von Alx;79279
Just out of curiosity, has anyone ever seen the Csi-style three-section-"quilted" door-panels in gray leather? For some reason all the gray ones that I've seen, are the plain version.

Great Car!!!!
Fantastic car - really a credit to the series. Seeing a lot of it around at the moment...but you cant get too much of a good thing!!! What size are the wheels? I assume they are original MPs? Am currently looking to source 18" either great refurbs or great quality replicas. Any thoughts?

"Quilted Panels"
I've a RHD Dakar yellow 850 csi with black/Grey leather and my door panels are 3 section 'quilted':)
-
Thank you for your comments everyone.
For those who read the article, don't take all the facts for granted; I work in a bank, but I am not a "banker" ...and I would not trade my car for an Alpina B7.
Sean, yes the wheels are OEM 18'm M Parallels.
Regards,

ReinhardSo, gray panels do exit then, in the 'Csi pattern'. This picture is the first time I've seen one like that in gray. I've seen many late model 840Ci, even "Individual" ones, here in the UK, but have only ever seen the plain door panels in gray.

That's a beautiful car. What colour blue is it?
-
The color is in Alex' signature: "1996 380 HP Techno Violet Euro 850CSi". More details about this rare color at 8coupe.com.

Nice pics Alx, looking good as new.
