1989 BMW 7 Series 750 IL review from North America
"The ultimate family car for parents who refuse to grow up"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump leaking day afer buying.
Radiator leak cured with teflon tape.
General comments?
For a 15 year old car, this has to be the nicest car I've owned.
Bad gas millage, but who cares.
My friend owns a twin turbo civic, and he hates my BMW, he can't keep up.
For a car that weighs as much as a 1984 Cadillac Fleetwood, it handles as good as my Dad's Cobra Mustang.
So reliable and comfortable the only thing I worry about on a road trip is falling asleap.
BMW must be hard pressed to build a better car year after year, especially after this one.
