Used 2001 BMW 7 Series 740iL RWD for Sale near British Columbia

Despite being a large car, it handles as well as a smaller five-series, and I get the same mileage (16-18 mpg) as a 530i I considered buying with the 3.0L V8. Has plenty of features: large trunk, massive back seat, and plenty of power. Highway mileage is good as well. I got around 29 MPG on the highway, and thanks to BMW active seat, I was able to drive ten hours without stopping, even with my bad back. The 4.4L V8 offers plenty of power, even for a heavy car such as this. The braking is acceptable. For handling, curves can be enjoyed at high speeds with little body roll. I've required one repair, when the radiator sprung a leak at the top. Repairs can be expensive, with my mechanic quoting radiator prices at upwards of 450 dollars. I found an OEM Behr radiator for 175, so with installation, it was still around the same as I paid for the replacement in my Ford F150. The car is heavy, and feels solid. The doors are quite weighty, and i've encountered no squeaks and rattles. On styling, i'm partial to this car because I prefer lines as compared to curves on autos. The interior's styling is comfortable and upscale, with BMW using the better rubberized dash and wood grain, as compared to many plastic-fantastic interiors on other cars. My well-maintained 740iL is a wonderfully fun car to drive, and i'm still in love with it, even after the honeymoon is over.

I love the 7 series. I feel confident when driving this car. Car feels solid. It is comfortable to drive and ride in too. Wish there was more room in the front seat for my purse, you have to put it on the passenger side floor taking up space for their personal item and feet.

Best luxury while sporty especially for tall people

Has great performance and unparalleled options for a 2001 if in excellent condition. Most will require replacement of plastic and rubber parts all around: will require alot of labor and hard to find parts costing more than the current value. For enthusiasts/mechanic could be more than worth it. Has an E38 exceptionally well designed engine.

It's a GREAT car. I'd recommend buying one. The engine is amazing with the 4.4 liter V8. It helps to have a good job if you need to replace things, but when you do i'd recommend looking online for cheaper parts cause will find them over going to the dealership. The Build quality is great it's GERMAN! The looks of it are classic and inbodys the German fabricating at the time. When I was looking this car up before I bought it, most of the web sites i used said it would average about 14mpg, but that seems really hard to do to get gas millage that low. I average right around 18mpg. It's a very fun car to drive even being a a massive car, once you get going you can't even tell that it is.I love my car and I love BMWs. and they love me.
