How many MPG are you seeing? What size is the battery?
And does BMW have an autopilot system yet?
hi there And does BMW have an autopilot system yet?
not sure on the battery size, I get about 20miles in full EV mode from fully charged, its enough to get me through london and then recharge on the motorway the other side, realistically its 45-65mpg

Low mileage lease deal... Clocked? who buys one of these new????
Just kidding - I used to live in Knightsbridge and the number of expensive cars round there that barely turn a wheel before getting chopped in for the latest must-have car is unreal.

To be honest no one will have paid 80k new. The discounts available on A8/S/7 are unreal. Often 0% PCP with large deposit contributions and 20-30% off list price.
Agreed. I searched for brand new 740e and without even haggling BMW dealers were offering 31% off the list price if you take out PCP, making it £52k brand new, rather than the £77k "list" price. So if the OP paid £37k for his lightly used one, then it's lost around £15k, not £40k. Still a good nearly new buy.

The 740e has the same 9.2-kWh battery as the 530e. And does BMW have an autopilot system yet?
BMW have replaced it with the 745e though, which has a larger, 12.0 kWh battery, offering a few miles more range.
Plus the replacement model comes with a 3 litre turbocharged 6 cylinder, rather than the 2 litre turbocharged 4 cylinder in the 740e.
Apparently BMW realised the 4 cylinder engine didn't offer the refinement and effortless performance that is expected in luxury cars like the 7 series.
MB also put a 3 litre turbo engine into their 560e.
