The BMW 7 SERIES (1995-02) 740I 4DR SALOON 4.4 SPORT AUTO is a large, four-door luxury saloon, built to sit near the top of BMW’s range. In the UK used-car market it is an older executive flagship, offering more space and comfort than a typical family saloon, rather than being a practical hatchback or economical city car. Its 4.4-litre V8 and automatic gearbox give it relaxed, smooth performance, while the Sport trim adds a more purposeful feel. It suits drivers seeking a comfortable long-distance cruiser, a distinctive classic BMW, or generous space for passengers; it is less suited to first-time drivers or anyone prioritising low fuel and maintenance bills. Against executive rivals such as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, it is known for combining imposing presence with a more driver-focused character.
