1991 850i

Hi, I'm a new member, I tried to post a thread on New members but it would'nt allow me to. Gliche I guess. I have been hunting around for a nice 850 for a long time and just found one and puchased it. It's a 1991 850I coupe with only 31k miles! I love that car! Is there a company that sells parts for this car? Thanks in advance, Al

Thanks, I build cars for a living and fun, T70 Lola, MarkIV GT40, Kirkham aluminum Shelby 427 SC, etc. So I don't plan on having some guy in a white smock working on my car and dipping into my pockets. I think this is going to be a great car to drive and work on. Al www.thormotorsports1.com

It will definitely be a great car to drive. The engine bay is a little cramped what with that big V12 sitting in it, though.

I've been driving an 840 for about six years. I can give you some advice on where to get parts if you contact me here. It's not too bad but they aren't generally in stock anywhere. California junk yards are a good source. Ned
