Thanks for watching 🙏🏼 - Авто та транспорт
160,000 miles and the indicators have never been used.
And never will 🫡😂
Imagine if this car had been maintained appropriately. It would be an amazing bit of kit to show around. I hope you can bring it back to street duty.
Absolutely brilliant!!! I just bought a 730D 2008 at the weekend...needs a bit of a paint on the bonnet and a service but your review of the 2003 model got me excited! I've always wanted to try a 7 series out and now I have the chance. :)
Best bmw engine ever made.Will go forever,and one of the best 7 series.
No you know that are bad when the local Bangladeshi takeaway delivers food in one 😂
The best BMW engines are: M50,M52,M57,M54,M62
Mate, you’ve surpassed yourself with this one and positively laughing in the face of danger. What can possibly go wrong, and they’re so mechanically and electrically straightforward 😂
😂 Haha, I have high hopes for this car, it will be the swan from the ugly duckling story….. I hope 😬😅
Nice car but i wish people wouldnt try to cover up bad repairs rather see it how it was,enjoying content keep up the good work.
BMW were always a head of the game … expensive to repair IF it breaks I would have thought… on its market value . Thanks for the tour of it … good video
Brilliant video. Always wanted to buy one of these and do what you are planning to do. Can’t wait to find the updates. Did you do the Cornwall trip as that’s where I live and run my you tube channel
Nice video ive got one 730i petrol makes a lovely noise , your reg has my initials on the end lol sw
Great video as always. Love a big German Barge.... 😂
Maybe do a man vs woman mpg challenge on the way to Cornwall. Eden Project is worth a look if you've not been. Can you get to Cornwall and back on a full tank of fuel challenge could be good.
The Nardo grey sounds good but not sure about black wheels anymore. Maybe a light to mid grey would work. Maybe lower it and put a roof box or surfboard on the roof bars? Could look quite cool. Have fun with it.
Love this.. can’t wait for the next one
Great content mate
Cheers Lee! I need to crack on with it, lots of parts here now!
Very rational purchase. Right up my alley.
Great content mate Iv just subscribed, keep up with the good work, and happy new years to you all 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks! Happy new year!
At 2 tonne very good scrap value when time comes. BEautiful barge nice vlog, hope u can fix it up
Great video, to big a car for Cornwall to park or on the narrow lanes.
£1000 on car, spend £3000 on paint and repairs then keep it 2 years +, £2000 a year is still cheap motoring, I've done this for the last 20 years with no problems so far. Only problem on these big 'barges 😄' is road tax and fuel costs, but if you only do a few miles they are a great buy and lots of people nod to you.
Break it that is all BMW are worth I have a newer 7 series and I'm like a English vulture I enjoy taking them apart and weighing them in
New subscriber today, watched a few vids. Pretty impressed tbh. Keep it up. Love watching shitbox vids 🤣
smart cars these are,shame owners havent looked after the bodywork more though!
Good work Mate! keep it up with the cars
Thanks, will do!
keep us updated please, its interesting. thank you
Go on then i'll subscribe.
Good car.
Look forward to the cornwall trip.
Nice one Gaz 👍
There is no way in UK you will pass MOT with Airbag fault showing on the dash. Unless they cleared the code before MOT and it only pops up after 3rd time of key off/on. Nice car, but will require some work tho.
760V12 Li is the top spec, as JAYEMM & its Joel had on their channels, this was the 1st BMW to use i-Drive , love this luxo barges
Luvin' this recently found channel. A slightly different slant on a combination of several other car crazy nutbag You Tubers., Enjoying what I'm watching. Nice one........ (yes yes yes, I have subscribed btw.)
Thanks Colin!
Best car I ever hed waaaay better then F01 i have now, best sound system I ever had Logic 7, amazing :) I had pfl 2002 745i ^^ amazing!
There are good android kits to replace the old iDrive system.
Would be cool to remove some old tech and use that space for other gadgets.
Have the 06 750li comes with heated / cooling massage seats in front full options w curtains in the rear. These cars are amazing! Not bad for 1000£ though
I see loads of high specced 5 and 7 series from around this time and newer that have upgraded stereos and fancier seats but no heated seats and my theory is that most people that buy or lease them don't even check if such a basic feature is included in the price and get a shock when it itsn't.
You would assume it had heated seats, wouldn’t you! 😢
subscribed a few minutes ago, I own one same year and engine but in much better condition, almost the same specs but with EDC, automatic trunk and a few other things, no heated seats.
and I have the same issue with the engine, a fault with the MAF but the issue is not the MAF it self, but I guess any boost leak because which triggers the MAF fault, no dash lights and no other faults, but take care with the tranny, oil change must be done each 80000 kms.
I can give you many advices regarding this model or any bmw, and regarding this engine also because beside the 7 series I also have one E39 530d.
Go to a Chiropractor, they're great. They'll also suggest ice not heat for your back. Sports people take ice baths.
Must look up what plastidip is now. Thanks.
Will you fix the passenger window? Drive it to Germany and the BMW HQ
Thats the car when u see ad on autotrader and it says fully loaded 🤭🤭🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good luck with it
Love the old 7 series.
On your way to Lands End, have you thought about doing a full on road trip from JoGt's :o
Format is very familiar. Next step is to get multi camera setup.😁
The TV works mate ,however there are no more UHF anolog broadcasts
There is a cheaper one. Here in Kansas I found a 2004 760li V12 with 210,000 miles for $700. The catch is it stopped running last week and the owner is done with it.
i had a e38 7 series for two years well actually the last two years until i had to give it up , it cost me a bomb but was well worth it . 😀
Are you a bangledeshi delivery driver
@@chucky2316 no r u or a moped driver on stilts lol
If you go to Cornwall pitstop at Plymouth, come see us at Enginetuner and we'll get it on the 4 wheel Dyno for you
Thanks Max, that’s a great offer, I’ll remember that when the time comes! 🍻
Got a 750i, came with heated seats, but not that phone in the drawer. The slide out keypad is there. Expensive on road tax, and fuel. Still doesn't look outdated.
Did you get all the fines from the previous cars when you boughtit? To me is seems to have triggered someone at TFL: I got a fine for having a wheel on a grid at a junction 3 years prior.
@truehighs7845 Hi, no previous fines, thank god
I had a 2004 760Li, but even that didn't have heated seats
That TV needs a Freeview box. Just pop it in the glove box!
I have exactly this car same engine,same model, everything (just is blue and from 2004 lol), does your's also have bluetooth option on the iDrive software? Mine has but still wasn't able to connect my phone to it
Edit: Didn't know it had TV wtf
Edit2: Idk why they have the trunk switch in the arm rest console, but it might have something to do with the backup key it has on the trunk (on the same place as the tow hook) the key doesn't unlock the car, but can start it
Edit3: Also idk if u know but the car key has some functions, if u press the lock or unlock button for a few seconds that car will open/close the windows and mirrors (since you'r is zip-tied not sure if would work xD) and the mirros close a TON never since something like that, they go from full to the side, to full upwards doing like a 90º angle while also rotating up, it's crazy (at least for me).
Mine had come with the gps navigation disk, but i believe either the disk or disk player is damaged and doesn't recognize it so idk if it works
Also, i just found out today, that on the wheel there's a button to toggle voice commands, like "turn on radio" or "call person" and stuff like that
But the freaking bluetooth, i still wasn't able to connect -.-
Not sure how old this video is but if you have not done your road trip you should stop by Chops Garage and see how much he would give you for it, he loves to buy old cars too. Just found your channel and love it, I am an expat living in the USA so I love to watch the Britich car channels, Chops, Home Build, and Salvage Rebuild UK.
Great idea, maybe we could do a swap instead 😃
I'd bet it's a no option car because it was bought for private hire. Posh airport taxi sort of thing. Especially as it has the smallest derv available. I've been carried in the back of many a spartan S-Class, so why not a BMW? I thonk owner-passengers would have been more likely to order the 750Li.
there is a reason they call this car a wedding dress, it's something that you can't sell.
My 745 is probably the best car I ever had, then the gearbox packed, but the diesel is not so bad with the gearbox the 330hp was,..
My 730ld has the heated front and rear with air vent also on fronts , Idrive is terrible
A lot of car for a grand . Still looks pretty modern too.👍
Yeah I think, quite pleased with it to be honest!
I would break it
I'm sure the f10 5 series was based on this 7 series chassis that's why it feels like 5 series size
Lovely cars....but it's a ⛽ diesel....petrol is the answer!
What a fantastic piece of kit for the money. Would a heavy duty cleaner work on those misty headlights or are they beyond hope?
I think they need a full restore, IE sand down and polish back up. But that’s ok, we love a challenge! 😁
A little Autoglym car wax works wonders on dull headlight lens.
That cars been to Jupiter and I still want it. Werkhooorse
My dream car, especially these early ones!
🤣🤣omg drivers side i thought looking quite good, but other side wtf 🤣🤣
😂 £1000 though 🤷♂️😂
@@ShiftingMetal totally agree fella it was just a bit of a shock 🤣🤣
It’s not economical to repair, I wouldn’t touch it. A 20 year old 7 series will never stop going wrong.
WHICH YEAR OF MANUFACTURE
Did this come from Bradford?
Mobile phone gives a presidential image to this BMW 📱📞
Gd channel but one car after another do update on out come of work or sale
I bought a 2003 745li for $2,000 US. It needed a starter.
not sure what you mean, but seems quite reasonable to give 1000GBP for a TV....
What on earth are you going to do about that paint job?
I've owned 3 bmws,a 3 series,a 5 series and most currently the 7 series..the 7 series was an absolute nightmare!!!the 5 series is the best this far!!
Àll worth more In parts
Have this engine in a 2005 E60 5 series in Ireland. Annual road tax is €1640
😭😭😭
Subscribed!!!! Better buy another shxtbox now mate!!!
I have E65 730D as well, have a problem with in tank fuel pump, it will not stop priming when ignition is on, how is it on your car?
I would find the fuel pump RELAY first.
@@norisboren5402 just replaced fuel pump, worked great for the first week or so. Checked the SBSR (relay) looks like it working as it should. Is any way to checked how many bar (or psi) the pump give when i run the pump from ISTA program?
Looking at these my self
I love it
i ❤it
I remember when this came out. My uncle in nigeria was the first one to import it in the country. The extended wheelbase version. It was the talk of the town.
Sport seats
That sounds expensive!
IT'S ILLEGAL!!!
!!!!!!!1
😳
A lot of kit for the money. Eastern Europe love these things. I have a 118d and couldn’t believe the spec on it. I paid £3400 for it just over a year ago( 09 black 3dr with 72k on the clock ) it’s now got 73k on it 🙄 as I just don’t use it. Maybe time to purchase my midlife crisis 🤔
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🚘
m57 diesel makes e65 reasonably reliable car
This is a good example of what not to do, I’d have thought.
By the time you’ve fixed that paint and bodywork and fixed the other bits you’d have been better off buying a straight one.
Bought my 2004 735i with 160xxxkms for $700NZ lol
I buy a 725 i similar full extras in 1000$
I will buy that BMW off of you.
Whats your website address again ?
berrowmotors.co.uk
Very cheap because it’s a money pit 🤣
Not sure why people say wing mirrors when they are door mirrors but I've heard it a lot.
@@snoopy417 door mirrors were first use 40+ years ago. Hardly modern times. I can remember wing mirrors. That's why I call them wing mirrors.
Not again Gary, you commented this in one of my other videos 😅 If you start a petition on change.org, I will push to get the people of Britain to change their use of the phrase ‘wing mirror’ to ‘door mirror’ once and for all ✌️
That is a pile of pig Muck 😭
scrap it
stevie wonder did a better paintjob then this guy ... looks more like Bangladesh style.
Scrap it
Its shit because its not an E38
bmw is haram
Good luck
Got a 2006 one worst thing ive bought in the garage as i type would be better being made into a fridge.
How on earth did it get an MOT with that exterior damage; especially the external rear view mirror. It would never have gotten a Road Worthy Certificate here in Australia. I own an BMW 528.I but the could not give me a 7 Series Bemer. The Seven Series is not popular here and surprisingly has had quite a few problems. Their resale value is very low. My BMW cost $132,000.00 new but I won't get anywhere near that now. I have kept up the service in my car with religious fervour. I have only used synthetic oil in my engine and religiously used top of the shelf Upper Cylinder Lubricant. The services which I have carried out by BMW every 10,000 Kms cost a Bomb. I rarely have a service that costs under $1,500.00. The car is fitted with every luxury you can ever imagine; it is run solely on 98 ROM petrol and is garaged with low Kms on the clock yet; I was offered a pittance for it as a trade in. I have decided to keep my car as it is mechanically sound.
Quit whilst your ahead
No wonder it's so cheap it is rubbish 😂😂😂😂
