I BOUGHT A BMW 850i! 

Evening all. Hope you’re all well. Deffo follow all of the guide lines given in the news. I don’t wanna hear of anyone in my audience getting taken out by this awful virus. Stay safe 🙏🏼👊🏼

Quite simply one of the most beautifully designed cars ever.

I still think it is the most beautiful BMW ever made. A work of Art!

Now this my friend, this is a freakin' holy grail. I would eat in it, sleep in it, work in it, make babies in it, quarantine in it, die in it & ressurect in it.

You can tell the previous owner cared for the car well just by the tyres it has :)

I always said, that the BMW 8 Series & the Merc SL from the early 90s, were two of the finest looking, & best built cars of the last century.

These depreciated massively and got into the hands of people who couldn't afford them and wide boys now they're finally getting sub zero cool. Wonderful cars and great video as usual Calvin 👍

Early 90's (1990 to 1999) when the 8's came out. They were truly stunning cars. I recall an "840i" with the V8 parking next to us one evening and my uncle (RIP), my dad (RIP) and myself spent the next 10 to 15 minutes looking over it to the owners obvious enjoyment of owning such a stunningly gorgeous looking car. And your 850i with just 80,000 miles!!?? That's only just run in that V12 :-))... Less than 2,700 miles per year!!

Those pop up headlights definitely give it an extra 5hp....😂

Timeless classic in my eyes.

The interior on this is like peak 90s BMW, buttons for everything! And the seats are really handsome with the light leather. Black interiors on these feel really claustrophobic, you need a bit of lightness.

I started a company with my brother around the same time as you did but we weren't on it and we failed and went bankrupt right on the 10 year mark :) Happy to hear you two made it! We are both doing ok now but we don't get to work together anymore.

Seeing this car on your channel reminded me of the cover of Nas - Street Dreams. I remember seeing an 8 series on the single cover.

One of the best cars you've put on your channel. Was my dream car growing up man . Well done mate keep the great content flowing

Good on you mate. One of the best and coolest cars to ever been produced. Have fun and godspeed to you

Fell in love with these when I first saw an ad for it when I was kid. Still think it's one of the most beautiful cars made.

Saw my first 850i at Earl's Court back in the day. I used most of my film reel on it. Lovely car.

I'm one for keeping cars original, but that car with those wheels looks amazing, one of the very few BMW"s I would want to own ,

Those M parallel Wheels are worth a bit themselves the e31's are one of the best bmws ever made let's not forget the e24 🙌🏾

My 1997 840Ci Sport 4.4 V8 has been my daily driver for nearly 8 years now and has never given me any trouble, just loads of pleasure. It also sounds much better than the V12 and is just as quick. Buy a good one, look after it and you will be impressed...

Always loved this car. I was born in 87 too and rarely I’ve seen this car.

Love this channel. Think it's building up some steam too as you're not like most car channels! Genuine guy who gets excited about every car! I see the boy'ish nature when you drive the motors and its refreshing to see!

Hahaha I have just bought this car, and then came across this video, nice being able to see Calvin walk round it before I pick it up😂

I fell in love with these in 1991 when my wife and I went to Europe. In Luxembourg I spotted my first one and promptly fell in love with the look. Now I can almost afford to buy one, but I’m not sure about maintaining one though.

OMG Calvin you gone and done it! I love this car, it’s the only BMW I’ve felt this way about. Funnyly I’ve never driven or sat in one but I know why it caught my attention. 1996/97 uni years a girl I had a crush on was dating a chap who had a black 850i which killed my moves so I’ve never forgotten that. I’d buy it in a heartbeat off you if I could mate.

The batmobile. I've always wanted to have an 850csi restomodded like the Clarion builds model with modern engine managment and electronics. Absolute classic and congratulations on getting one.

I've seen 2 of these out and about where I live and honestly the first time I saw one, I fell in love it looks so good.

Please dyno this Calvin! Be great to know how much power its pushing out now all these years later :)

That sound ❤️ Those front lights remind of the lights on my bro’s Supra from the mid 90’s 👌🏼

Very cool I have wanted one since the early 2000’s maybe one day.

This is one of my all time favourite cars. No other BMW comes close to how beautiful this is

Omg one of my favourite bmw's 😍 absolute machine!! Best looking bmw of 1990s

That M6 look reminds me of that old Sky channel Series:The Hammer House of Horror! Love the looks of the 850, in the Future this Car will get kinda like the same status as a Testarossa, and check the prizes on the Classic 850, crazy high ! Also love the V12, but it is too much a Hassle in many ways compared to a V8. These 850s are Collectors stuff, and deserve to be, a Great and Unique BMW. Nice and honest Review , Thanks!

This car is one of the most beautiful cars ever

Just to clear up some of your understanding about BMW. For those E31 series BMW's An 840i, 840CI had the V8. Any E31 with an 850i, 850Ci, or 850CSi, they were all V12 engines. This also applies to the E32 7 series Saloons E32 series.

insane how good the e31 looked. timeless.

Baller BMW So beautiful, legendary GT car; After Covirus, you should drive it down to the South of France with your family. Be the trip of a lifetime

Gorgeous auto. M Spoke wheels are just right on this car. I remember these when they first came out. A true GT. Prices when new I think were north of $75K US. A lot of money back in 95.

This was a dream car of mine at school. In my first proper job it turned out one of the older guys had one. He nearly bit my arm off when I told him I liked them. Desperate to git rid

Been watching you for 2 years now can't wait to see you hit a 100K subscribers.

Wow looks fantastic. Looks in wonderful condition. Good find.

Grey leather with the green paint and glass is a nice touch. Interior looks iridescent. It's a beautiful motor.

Love it...but would be scared of the auto box. Lovely classic for someone as a Sunday car that can afford the occasional £1k hit every now and then. The Payback is the experience it gives back....as a laid back life loving cruiser! Worth watching one of ‘Harry’s garage’ old vids on a sl600 that he keeps in the south of France....much the same concept 👌🏻

I own a 1994 BMW 850CSI with 35,000 miles on it. Black with white interior.

It's a great car. Having seen them head to head though, I can confirm the 840 & 850 were quite different. The 840 is no slouch but the 850 could leave it in the dust!

good video calvin nice to see you working so hard and killing this youtube game 😎 keep it up bro

That is one damned nice Beemer and great find. You look at the engine and inside, it shows they were ahead of their time. Looks in great shape and don't think there's much to restore. Sounds great too.

my neighbours had an Estoril blue 850CSi 6 speed manual, proper rare car! Could stand a 50p on the engine and it wouldn't even move lol!

This video was amazing mate. It brought so many memories of my childhood lol. I have wanted one of these since 1989 (when my dad bought me a poster of one). It’s basically my dream car. My dad had a brilliant red with black leather 1992 850i back in the early 90s. I remember him flooring it down the country lanes with is music playing so loud. My brother and I had to be squashed into the back seats, as there was no legroom. I hope that one day when I move back to England, that can get one. They are quite exspensive in russia.

Absolute tool back in the day,rich man's car the tyres were the price of a good second hand run about.When I did finally get to drive one ,I thought it drove like shit hard ride and still loved it and dreamed of owning one

Much prettier than the new 8 series. A true flagship. Weighs about the same with the new 8 series which has a smaller engine but comes with 4wd Great car man 👌 p.s CSi is 5.6 and carries the S70B56 engine and a manual gearbox. Fast push the windows and sunroof button and they open/close automatically

Just sold my first car you gave me inspiration Cal thank you 🙏🏻🖖

Man how cool were the 850's with pillarless Windows ! Still looks the business. 👍

This car always reminds me of that talking 90s car night rider

Simple lines and just a gorgeous body! BMW definitely has created some beautiful cars but this one is one of the most beautiful!

Nice to hear that v12 . Still looks good and sounds it too. Stay safe you and your bro.

Loved this car when i was a kid. The front end always reminded me of the Knight Rider car.

One of the best looking BMW ever made!

the 840 ci is the right buy !, that 850 is a money pit !!

That's a beautiful engine note alright!

One of my fav cars 8 series. I'm not a bmw fan but love theres Calvin m8

I think those wheels have to be some of the best factory wheels ever to be fitted to a car

Calvin you legend one of my favourite BMW’s ever ✊✊

Absolutely one of my favourite body styles, that wide body is still insane. I need to finally find grab one. Such a beast ! That thing is gorgeous. I had a chance to grab a burgundy 850 from a friend for a steal. I will have one in the near future Always wanted one.

Well done Calvin I remember those 8 series cars from the late 80’s Wicked cars 👍👌 #onit

How did you even find that car???? Oooh, i am all about nostalgia now! I worked for BMW in the States at the time when they came out and they were really a head turner... We had 840s mostly, but once in a while an enthusiast would come and order the beast - 850csi and that would be quite a scene when it arrived. One comment to you Calvin is that i really like your filming, camera angles man, you bring out exactly what we need to see, and in a very professional way, thank you. I also like your video about the Range Rover Vogue, - 100,000 mile car! Fantastic. Thank you so much.

Great vid - love the 850i! What camera equipment are you using? (does anybody know) The visuals looked 🔥

I absolutely love that model bmw! Way ahead of it’s time!

It is not wrong to change the wheels on a classic car! That is actually an out of date concept from the 90's.

5:00 that laugh is what it's all about! nice car mate

I used to own one of those babies, bought it when i was 22 for 5000 euro's. Did some major maintenance (sparkplugs, rotors, caps, cables, brakes all around $$$$$$) and traded it for a 735i. Biggest mistake ever, 10 years later these cars go for 15k+ and i scrapped the 735i....

This car is next on my bimmer list. Just got another E38 two weeks ago. Next year want to grab an 850 as well.

I am a simple car fan. I see a BMW 850i. I simply press like

Drug dealers wouldn't have bought this, by the time they have dropped to your house they would be saying "i need your petrol MATE not money"

Easiest car to do donuts with. Just wait till it's a bit wet outside, accelerate and let that rear wheel drive do the rest. Beast of a car.

Pop up head lights. V12. Beautiful looking car!

Amazing car, beautiful. Should 100% keep that

what a beauty i have e31 with s62 its most sick car i will ever own for sure you can hear happiness in your voice :)

We're all self isolating whereas Calvin is risking it all for us! What a gentlemen ❤

Such a shame it doesn't have the original wheels. I got a Maitso model BMW 850i for a birthday present in 92 in this colour too but with plastic proper BBS wheels. It's currently sitting under the monitor in my spare bedroom covid office, so I see it everyday. Which is why I commented..

Just to mention that there was and M8 but it was called CSI. Bmw 850 CSI which has an M engine.

Always wanted one of these. Just gets better with age.

Such a great car, would love to own one

Koenig max power style body kitted cars must make a come back one day ? A Dakar Yellow 850 CSI used to float around my home time when I was a kid it was a proper eyefull.

When I was 18 my boss let me take his 850 from Dunstable to Northampton for business, the best drive I ever did, I felt like god

Not been watching your channel to long but now I'm hooked. BMW 850I one of my dream cars... Keep it up

one of my dream vehicles. I had it's brother with 4 doors. the 1991 750il.

The most beautiful coupe BMW has ever made, and still one of the most beautiful cars in the world. That is in great condition- you'd be a fool to sell it.

I remember seeing one once, about 92-93, it was at the lights in nottingham england, this thing just fkd off from the line and made us look standing still!.

Absolutely beautiful who else would pick the 850i over any new m5 m6 these days

Another great car and great review! Always love watching your videos and sound like a very genuine car dealer!

Always loved cars with pop up lights

The car is up for £12,500 if someone is seriously interested in it. If I could I would 😍

Race your RS6 against Dmo's E63s, and Ricky's M4

The fact your comparing it to your brand new BMW means something.

You should have gone for the manual box. Far more giggles.

That's a lovely looking motor, and it looks to be in pretty good condition as well. Edit: Actually that looks to be in GREAT condition!

Always been a beautiful shape a timeless classic.

Hi calvin,my mate owned an 840i in the 90's,it was dark blue i borrowed it one day,i loved it driving it was a joy,i didnt want to give it back,still a cool looking car,🙂🙂

Loving the bmw content lately mate 🙏 classics aswel 🔥 keep doing what your doing bud 👌
