In this video, I review a BMW 850i E31 which has a naturally aspirated V12 paired with a 6 speed manual gearbox which was quite a rare combination. It was the “budget” V12 option as it was below the BMW 850CSi yet that car is a shadow of what BMW could do with the E31 – the BMW M8. There’s lots of V12 goodness to discuss here and why even the base 850i is a marvellous car.

great video….
Literally the M8 would be mind blowing to drive
Would be nice to get a s2k on
This video moved me on many levels guys 🙏 I often wonder what would happen to my 8 if something happened to me… driving it minimum once a week for last 13 years is the best time of my week. Like a holiday from everything.
Bless Sarwar for keeping Dr Cats "mechanical pet" alive (my cars are my pets).
And it's made me want a V12! I'm always driving arm out the window too so perhaps not a manual ha ha 🤣
Thanks for making these videos…they really showed what it's like to drive to e31's!
In fact I've never even sat inside any e31 except mine. So was a pleasure to watch these! 🙏
Legend says Sarwar is now a TRL member…
that was back when bmw was making cars you could wank off to.
Was smiling the whole 21 minutes. Its was an absolute pleasure making this video with you Mizan. The amount of time and research you put into these videos is incredible 👏 hats off and no doubt channel will explode with the in depth content you have in it.
