BMW 7-Series protection, security armored, bulletproof (2000)
for sale
Price: US $16,250.00
Price: US $16,250.00
Offered for sale is a rare, one of 88 made, 2000 BMW 750iL Protection
armored/armoured (bulletproof) luxury sedan. 104, 500 original miles. To make
things clear there are some individuals advertising their vehicle as a
protection model when it is not. All e38 750iL vehicles came with dual pane
glass. The Protection version has 19.4mm thick glass in the doors, and even
thicker front windshield, and rear window. It also has a fully armored
passenger compartment, special wheels, and other additional features giving it
a B4 level rating. (protection from most handguns, and 12 gauge shotguns) There
is no sunroof. There were only 88 of
these vehicles produced and delivered worldwide, half of them made it to USA
making this car one of about 44, probably the only one in white as most of
these came in black or other dark colors. The US sticker price of this car was
over $127, 000. Which is about $28, 000 more than a normal version e38 750iL. Due
to the armoring throughout the car a side effect is that the car is very quiet, in fact it is just as quiet as a Tesla while driving at 60mph on the highway. The
car is about 480 pounds heavier compared to a regular model. Highway fuel
economy is not effected by the additional weight.
This car has been
maintained by a BMW dealer since new, there are 49 service records from BMW on
this vehicle throughout its lifetime up through the end of 2013 when it was put
into storage. Since then it has been driven less than 1500 miles. Highlights of
work done, radiator, thermostat, expansion tank, water pump, suspension, tires, power steering hoses, ABS/DSC module, etc. Vehicle has never been in an
accident. This is a 3 owner vehicle but the first two are the person as it was
originally a lease. Carfax shows no accidents or events of any kind. Recently
the vehicle was brought out of storage, 2001 facelift performed (side skirts, bottom of bumpers painted body color, clear front/side turn signal and rear
tail lamps installed), refreshed, cleaned, serviced, and tested. The car needs nothing and is ready to give a
continued life of reliable service, comfort, safety, security, as well as
aesthetic pleasure.
The car shows well, and is in great overall condition. Seats, carpet are in great shape. Paint is
smooth and has high gloss. There are no
fluid leaks, no rust or oxidation on the underside of the car. The engine runs
smoothly, transmission shifts as designed, there is no shimmy or vibration in
the steering, and there is no noise from the suspension. All accessories operate properly, all displays
operate with no missing pixels. A/C
blows cold. Tires and brakes have over 85% life remaining, front tires are new. There is a dent in the back of the car just
below the left tail light. (can be seen in picture), the wheels have some curb damage. I can
provide additional pictures by request. Below is a link to a manufacturer video
about production and capabilities of these cars, along with driving videos of
the actual car which is for sale. I
reserve the right to sell this vehicle outside of Ebay.
