Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1980 BMW 728i, with a 2795cc engine and showing 70,595 miles, is described as running and driving, although its last MoT expired in 2010. The car, originally gold, was changed to white in 1987 and comes with only the V5C documentation, buyers should inspect the car thoroughly before bidding.
Condition
5
The car is described as 'running and driving, with working brakes', suggesting it's mechanically functional. However, the color change in 1987 and the expired MoT (though now MoT-exempt) indicate some level of wear and modification. The lack of detailed documentation beyond the V5C also limits the ability to assess its full condition. Recommend inspection by a professional.

Description
Registered in April 1980, this 2795cc BMW 728i is described as running and driving, with working brakes and no issues that the vendor is aware of.

T expired in February 2010; as the BMW is now over 40 years old, it will now qualify for Mo
T-exemption, but the V5C's tax class will need to be updated with the DVLA to enable this.
The colour was changed from gold to the current white in March 1987 according to DVLA records.
The only documentation accompanying the car is its V5C.
