 Filed under unintended consequences: BMW's current 7 Series ( e38) is so controversially styled that it's ballooned the value of its predecessor. Not that the old car is unworthy. The '95-'01 740/750 Series are spacious and luxurious, but also deep down driver's cars that mix good reflexes with expected levels of refinement and comfort. Great cars, in other words. The previous-gen 7 arrived in '95 after a visual freshening that logically made it look like the 5's bigger brother. As before, the 7 could be had with the 4.0-liter/282-horse V-8 shared with the 5 Series or a newly enlarged 5.4-liter/328-horsepower V-12. There were two wheelbases, the 5.5-inch-longer version reserved for the 740iL (V-8) and 750iL (V-12), with the additional length making the rear-passenger area positively cavernous. The short-wheelbase model came only with the silky V-8. For one year, '96, just the long-wheelbase cars were imported. |

 3 generation of sedans BMW of a class "lux" for the first time has been submitted in 1995. BMW 7 series were issued in the following variants: 725tdi, 730d, 730i, 735i, 740i, 740iL, 750iL, 740iL Protection and 750iL Protection. Automobiles of a series "Protection" are equipped with bulletproof glasses, the details strengthening security of a body, and wheels on which it is possible to go even if they are completely lowered. At once it is necessary to understand: the automobile not absolutely representation. If to speak about smoothness of a course and noiselessness, "seven" partly concedes to competitors. Even the automobile more promptly schoolmates looks: the low cowl topped with firm "nostrils" of a lattice of a radiator, the big glasses. |

E38 1995 * E38 Production starts in 1994 for the 1995 Model Year replacing the E32. First E38s models were available with either a 2.5L Turbodiesel I6 3.0L or 4.0L M60 V8 or the 5.4L M73 V12 engine. * US Model Range includes the 740i, 740iL and 750iL. 1995 E38 used a block made of Nikasil, which is Aluminium impregnated with Nickel and Silicon. Apparently, sulphur reacts adversely with the Nickel , causing very slight blemishes in the top few millimeters of the cylinder bore. The cylinder bores are crosshatched, which is the name given to a pattern scratched into the surface of the cylinder wall. These scratches help seat and seal the piston rings, allowing good compression. More information on Nikasil engine BMW's can be found here |

What's Good More 'modern' looking than predecessor. A bit bigger (16' 4" long by 6' 1" wide, but a lot heavier at 1,915kg for 740i. Better ride. Luxurious and capable. 193bhp 728i capable of 28-30 mpg.
V8s re-engined in early 1996. 238bhp M62 3,498cc 735i replaced 218bhp 2,997cc M60 730i and 286bhp M62 4,398cc 740i replaced 286bhp 3,592cc M60 740i (same power output, more torque). 326bhp M73 5,379cc 750 V12.
7-Series was 15th from top in 'R' reg J.D. Power Customer Satisfaction Survey (but well below Jaguar XJ8). S and T reg cars came fourth in 2001 Top Gear / JD Power Customer Satisfaction Survey. BMW, Toyota and Ford jointly suffered the fewest breakdowns attended by German ADAC during 2001. BMW had sixth lowest average cost in warranty claims for cars up to 10 years old in 2002 Warranty Direct index. Low 3 out of 9 point death rate from accidents in this model.

 VF-Engineering chose to supercharge the BMW E38 740 to increase throttle response and mid-to-top end power with the centrifugal Vortech supercharger. With the stock 4.4 liter motor, power and torque are already suitable for the heavy 7 series chassis. However this upgrade is for the V8 enthusiast who demands more power. The new found power makes the E38 740 powerful enough to overtake and accelerate hard with the greatest ease. As a daily driver the supercharged BMW 740 is a mild mannered executive car waiting for the throttle body to be flung open. It is easy to slide the back out under full throttle and send the 7 series V8 to ridiculous speeds way above the limit. Upgraded brakes are a suggested pre-requisite. |
