I always loved those 8 series BMWs back in the day. When you saw one come into a parking lot.......it projected the feeling of "I HAVE ARRIVED"! Any owner of one of these back in the day (or now for that matter) was one lucky individual. Nice that TOPAZ brought it back to a better than new condition! That color combination on that 850 is stunning!

I worked at the BMW dealership Barons of Hindhead that supplied this car new, the customer Graham Hurlstone who owned the company that supplied the trees that you'd see on motorways that grew out of plastic tubes called tubex LTD not a golfer. He was taken over to Germany by our sales manager to spec this absolutely stunning example. I was the valeter at this dealership and was the first person to clean this car before delivery.

Do you by chance know where the spinning logoemblem on the center cap comes from? Appreciate your answer.
@adammelville10778 ай бұрын
You can purchase them from a BMW retailer, I believe they are available for all models but worth confirming. I work for BMW and have seen them featured on many of the newer generation cars.

@@adammelville1077 thank you for your reply. I saw those. Point is, in case of the rims showed on the video, looks like they made a hole in the center cap (it's a plastic one) to fit this spinner logo. At least that's what I think and wanted to confirm it.

This car was in the design stage a 5 years before it was produced. It is actually the epitome of the best of 80s styling. The Toyota Supra of the time had a similarity, but does not come close to the beauty of this body style. The interior leather was very thin and always rippled as with this car. Felt like it needed more padding. That could gave been done better.

Great video -fabulous car especially in that colour. Pretty certain the McLaren F1 engine was not derived from the flagship BMW 5-litre V12 as it was to big and heavy. They built a completely new engine for the F1. Keep up the good work.

“The S70/2, while sharing the same 12 cylinder layout, bore spacing and design principle as the S70B56, is essentially a new design with the heads based on the European market S50B30,[20] and thus featuring 4 valves per cylinder and variable valve timing (called VANOS by BMW) and individual throttle bodies.” We did only say based on! 😁

Thought that pressure washing the engine bay was a big no no?
@inquisitor46355 ай бұрын
On more modern cars it is less of a concern. But I still cover up connectors on wiring harnesses before pressure washing. And do not spray into any air vents leading into the cabin. But I would definitely cover all the electronics in this car before pressure washing, especially connectors. Some parts for this car are not made by BMW any longer, some can be had from other manufacturers, but some parts are no longer made by anyone and can only be obtained from other used vehicles. Best to be extra cautious in this regard.

@@user-xw7ui8wv7o What expertise is involved in applying this amount of water to the engine bay? The car features numerous electrical sockets and connections, which, if exposed to water, could lead to faults over time as these connectors may start to rust. If the car is particularly special, why not utilise a steamer instead? I've been following Topaz since Enzo's detailing video showcased their work. Knowing their reputation for quality, I remain astonished by what I have just witnessed.
