2000 BMW 7 Series 740i review from South Africa
"Creaky piece of tin!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
* Airbags (2 front).
* Power steering.
* Driver seat collapsed.
* Heavy on fuel.
* Headlight (right) constantly blows.
* Left rear doorhandle broke off!!!
* Excessive tyre wear.
* Lots of rattles (especially in the dashboard).
Etc.
General comments?
A lot of money for a supposed luxury car! I will never purchase a BMW again!! I will return to Audi & Mercedes, at least there you get what you pay for!
