Vehicle Overview
Description
The BMW 8-Series is a perfect blend of everything you could want in a retro luxury GT car. The styling, the performance, the refinement…and let’s not overlook the pop up headlights! Originally sourced from JKC in Coleraine and registered in the Republic by its first keeper, this 1997 840ci has been kept in exceptional condition over its 75k miles. The Pacific Blue paintwork is excellent and the rare original Throwing Star alloys are perfect. Inside, the grey leather electric memory seats show little to no wear and everything works exactly as it should. A head cloth had been fitted in recent years which is a common weak point for this generation of 8 series. A very well specced model containing upgraded original head unit, heated seats, rear blind and sunroof. Being a 1997 model, it is fitted with the 4.4 V8 engine with better fuel economy and torque than the earlier 4.0 engines. These later engines are not susceptible to the early nikasil liner issues and were heavily updated. The car comes with a large history file and has been meticulously maintained by its two and only owners. Most recently the car has had a major service, tyres, suspension joints and brakes all round and a rheostat for the heating system at great expense. This is not your usual tired 8 series. This is a car that has been genuinely loved and cared for by its two owners and represents a great opportunity to buy an excellent car that is on the cusp of classic car ownership with €56 tax. A proper car that will not disappoint. Viewing strictly by appointment. All cars supplied with valid NCT where appropriate.

I recently purchased an e46, 320Ci off Simon from Deane Motors. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience from start to finish. From the first call on Tuesday to picking up the car on Friday, the process was seamless! Someone who really knows their stuff and values his customers. Would highly recommend to anyone in the market.

I just got my Ferrari back from Simon and the lads today after a serious engine out service. They got straight into the job when the took in the car and had it back in a very reasonable timeframe. The lads kept me up to date throughout with videos, photos and general updates. You wouldn't get this level of transparency from a Main Dealer. There were unforeseen issues along the way but they just got on with it and were able to order awkward parts where possible and had parts made where they were not available or too expensive to buy. Very few mechanic operations left of this type in Ireland with this wealth of knowledge and experience and they are not afraid to work on the higher end old cars. I will definitely be back to them for any future maintenence. Now all I need is a dry day to enjoy this V8 on the backroads again!!

I’ve bought already 3 cars from Simon and Simon - such a stunning selection of cars for nearly any budget, and more importantly amazing after sale customer care. All 3 cars were in great condition with low mileage, ready to go to any car show. The latest one - Mercedes w201 has only 78k km (less than 50k miles!) in its 34 years, what a find by Simon and team! I had a small mechanical issue with one of the cars after the purchase - we arranged a repair and I was immediately provided with a replacement car (a wonderful experience on its own - a powerful beast with 250 bhp!). Was receiving updates on the repair and timing along the way in text messages, which was really nice. Always feeling welcomed and respected even buying comparatively cheaper cars. I could really feel their love to cars, knowledge and professionalism. I will for sure be back again and trade in for the next car!
