735i any good?
Discussion
Off the top of my head... the 740 is a better bet. They share the same thirst but the 740 has a very decent slug of useful power and torque over the 735.
It's the usual 90's BMW fare with these cars. They're strong in terms of overall performance and solidity but they are heavy on ball joints, brakes and tyres.
The gearboxes can get a little resistant to engage 1st gear. Ideally, they will have had an oil change around every 70-80k. Pixels invariably give way on the OBC and the occasional electronic gremlin is to be expected, too.
ANother issue is porous petrol tanks - although this seemed to affect mainly earlier cars.
