Evening all. Hope you’re all well. Deffo follow all of the guide lines given in the news. I don’t wanna hear of anyone in my audience getting taken out by this awful virus. Stay safe 🙏🏼👊🏼
Have you considered isolating? I'm not sure if I should phone my work tomorrow and tell them I'm going to isolate. I don't get payed if I'm not at work but I have some savings I could survive on for a few months.
Awesome car - I reckon you should get stock up on these ‘era type cars’ top man as always fella 🤘
Good video
Calvin's Car Diary Great story fella, very inspirational & yes everyone please stay safe

Quite simply one of the most beautifully designed cars ever.
They don’t do em like this anymore. This is timeless for me.
This and the Audi A8 D2!!!
So you like the Ford Probe too?
Matthew Bell This is how I feel about e60
I wish i owned one. These are only gone go up in price, massively
I still think it is the most beautiful BMW ever made. A work of Art!
Kiwi TeeTee agree!!
Now this my friend, this is a freakin' holy grail. I would eat in it, sleep in it, work in it, make babies in it, quarantine in it, die in it & ressurect in it.
Genijalno.
Try it with a manual box.
@@tonyhaynes9080 Manual gearbox is for real drivers. Something slowly fading these days :D
Calm down weirdo.
@@tlustejmicincan’t beat a manual, I’m nearly 40 and owned 44 cars and not one of them has been an auto. I beat many fast cars back in the day 🤣🤣💪
I always said, that the BMW 8 Series & the Merc SL from the early 90s, were two of the finest looking, & best built cars of the last century.
Spot on
You can tell the previous owner cared for the car well just by the tyres it has :)
Lovely maintained car indeed pity is not manual that would be Epic..
Those pop up headlights definitely give it an extra 5hp....😂
Yeah at least 5!
These depreciated massively and got into the hands of people who couldn't afford them and wide boys now they're finally getting sub zero cool. Wonderful cars and great video as usual Calvin 👍
Matt H “wide boys”... yes bro, Nick kurshaw
What are wideboys lool im young
@@kwameopoku3576 a geezer, a bit of a rascal and possibly a petty criminal
Matt H or an aspirational drug dealer, on the rise, growing his network...
Early 90's (1990 to 1999) when the 8's came out. They were truly stunning cars. I recall an "840i" with the V8 parking next to us one evening and my uncle (RIP), my dad (RIP) and myself spent the next 10 to 15 minutes looking over it to the owners obvious enjoyment of owning such a stunningly gorgeous looking car.
And your 850i with just 80,000 miles!!?? That's only just run in that V12 :-))... Less than 2,700 miles per year!!
I started a company with my brother around the same time as you did but we weren't on it and we failed and went bankrupt right on the 10 year mark :)
Happy to hear you two made it! We are both doing ok now but we don't get to work together anymore.
That sound ❤️ Those front lights remind of the lights on my bro’s Supra from the mid 90’s 👌🏼
One of the best cars you've put on your channel. Was my dream car growing up man . Well done mate keep the great content flowing
Love this channel. Think it's building up some steam too as you're not like most car channels! Genuine guy who gets excited about every car! I see the boy'ish nature when you drive the motors and its refreshing to see!
Good on you mate. One of the best and coolest cars to ever been produced.
Have fun and godspeed to you
Seeing this car on your channel reminded me of the cover of Nas - Street Dreams. I remember seeing an 8 series on the single cover.
Calvin probably doesnt who that great lyricist is🤣
I've seen 2 of these out and about where I live and honestly the first time I saw one, I fell in love it looks so good.
Another great car and great review! Always love watching your videos and sound like a very genuine car dealer!
Loving the bmw content lately mate 🙏 classics aswel 🔥 keep doing what your doing bud 👌
The interior on this is like peak 90s BMW, buttons for everything! And the seats are really handsome with the light leather. Black interiors on these feel really claustrophobic, you need a bit of lightness.
Loving the channel. Good mix of cars I'm really interested in. Keep up the good work!
good video calvin nice to see you working so hard and killing this youtube game 😎 keep it up bro
Fell in love with these when I first saw an ad for it when I was kid. Still think it's one of the most beautiful cars made.
OMG Calvin you gone and done it! I love this car, it’s the only BMW I’ve felt this way about. Funnyly I’ve never driven or sat in one but I know why it caught my attention. 1996/97 uni years a girl I had a crush on was dating a chap who had a black 850i which killed my moves so I’ve never forgotten that. I’d buy it in a heartbeat off you if I could mate.
That is one damned nice Beemer and great find. You look at the engine and inside, it shows they were ahead of their time. Looks in great shape and don't think there's much to restore. Sounds great too.
Timeless classic in my eyes.
Been watching you for 2 years now can't wait to see you hit a 100K subscribers.
Not been watching your channel to long but now I'm hooked. BMW 850I one of my dream cars... Keep it up
Saw my first 850i at Earl's Court back in the day. I used most of my film reel on it. Lovely car.
This video was amazing mate. It brought so many memories of my childhood lol.
I have wanted one of these since 1989 (when my dad bought me a poster of one). It’s basically my dream car.
My dad had a brilliant red with black leather 1992 850i back in the early 90s. I remember him flooring it down the country lanes with is music playing so loud. My brother and I had to be squashed into the back seats, as there was no legroom.
I hope that one day when I move back to England, that can get one. They are quite exspensive in russia.
Lol your dad must be one rich guy from england to russia and bought an 8 series in the 90's and 2 kids. What kind of job did he have ?
Nice to hear that v12 . Still looks good and sounds it too. Stay safe you and your bro.
Just sold my first car you gave me inspiration Cal thank you 🙏🏻🖖
The batmobile. I've always wanted to have an 850csi restomodded like the Clarion builds model with modern engine managment and electronics.
Absolute classic and congratulations on getting one.
That M6 look reminds me of that old Sky channel Series:The Hammer House of Horror!
Love the looks of the 850, in the Future this Car will get kinda like the same status as a Testarossa, and check the prizes on the Classic 850, crazy high !
Also love the V12, but it is too much a Hassle in many ways compared to a V8.
These 850s are Collectors stuff, and deserve to be, a Great and Unique BMW.
Nice and honest Review , Thanks!
Omg one of my favourite bmw's 😍 absolute machine!! Best looking bmw of 1990s
Love it...but would be scared of the auto box.
Lovely classic for someone as a Sunday car that can afford the occasional £1k hit every now and then.
The Payback is the experience it gives back....as a laid back life loving cruiser!
Worth watching one of ‘Harry’s garage’ old vids on a sl600 that he keeps in the south of France....much the same concept 👌🏻
Wow looks fantastic. Looks in wonderful condition. Good find.
Calvin you legend one of my favourite BMW’s ever ✊✊
One of my fav cars 8 series. I'm not a bmw fan but love theres Calvin m8
This was a dream car of mine at school. In my first proper job it turned out one of the older guys had one. He nearly bit my arm off when I told him I liked them. Desperate to git rid
Awesome car man love these things, the brake boosters in them do seem to be a problem item in them though so well worth looking into that if she’s a two foot braker. Looks a lovely example though 👍🏻
What a beauty of a car that is calv. Always been on of my favourite bmw's
Lovely machine. Keep up the the good work Calv!
Awesome car Calvin, I own a Calypso Red 850i in rare 6 speed manual form!! Slowly restoring the complete car at the moment. Personally own some other legends like You! Keep up the great videos!!
Gorgeous auto. M Spoke wheels are just right on this car. I remember these when they first came out. A true GT. Prices when new I think were north of $75K US. A lot of money back in 95.
It's a great car. Having seen them head to head though, I can confirm the 840 & 850 were quite different. The 840 is no slouch but the 850 could leave it in the dust!
I'm one for keeping cars original, but that car with those wheels looks amazing, one of the very few BMW"s I would want to own ,
Love your content and what a character you are. Loving your content t man keep it up
Please dyno this Calvin! Be great to know how much power its pushing out now all these years later :)
Your enthusiasm for motors is awesome, makes your videos addictive! 👍
Very cool I have wanted one since the early 2000’s maybe one day.
same since I was 10 or 11, it was the first time I seen one in person back in '03
You can pick these up for a bag of sand
@@jon4539 where lol
Man how cool were the 850's with pillarless Windows ! Still looks the business. 👍
my neighbours had an Estoril blue 850CSi 6 speed manual, proper rare car! Could stand a 50p on the engine and it wouldn't even move lol!
PixelVogue we had a 850ci Manual V12. Absolutely loved it
Well done Calvin
I remember those 8 series cars from the late 80’s
Wicked cars 👍👌
#onit
early 90s mate they didnt come out till 1989 :)
Simple lines and just a gorgeous body! BMW definitely has created some beautiful cars but this one is one of the most beautiful!
Hi calvin,my mate owned an 840i in the 90's,it was dark blue i borrowed it one day,i loved it driving it was a joy,i didnt want to give it back,still a cool looking car,🙂🙂
Always loved this car. I was born in 87 too and rarely I’ve seen this car.
You seem to be coming up with these childhood Dream Cars all the time lately ;) it was such a nice car to see driving about back in the day all you need now on the channel is a Lancia Delta and a Volkswagen Corrado ;) lol
I fell in love with these in 1991 when my wife and I went to Europe. In Luxembourg I spotted my first one and promptly fell in love with the look. Now I can almost afford to buy one, but I’m not sure about maintaining one though.
I owned a 840ci sport individual for 4 and a bit years. Loved the car but it was a real walet emptier . Still when I moved it on I was tinged with sadness, almost regret.
@@alexmclaren6401did you get it in good condition and it deteriorated or was it already a bit of a project? This is one of my absolute dream cars and I’m looking to gather as many anecdotes as I can
This is one of my all time favourite cars. No other BMW comes close to how beautiful this is
We're all self isolating whereas Calvin is risking it all for us!
What a gentlemen ❤
Hahaha I have just bought this car, and then came across this video, nice being able to see Calvin walk round it before I pick it up😂
Looks like u love the car man. I know you have a lot of projects right now but I say keep the car for yourself and get that koenig for it, diversify your line up a little bit with a sweet classic.
Loved this car when i was a kid. The front end always reminded me of the Knight Rider car.
That was my thought 👌👍
Great vid - love the 850i! What camera equipment are you using? (does anybody know) The visuals looked 🔥
Baller BMW So beautiful, legendary GT car; After Covirus, you should drive it down to the South of France with your family. Be the trip of a lifetime
sm70911 you mean by the end of the year? Lol this virus thing doesn’t seem to be going anywhere till end of November
@@bekabeka71 That's the beauty of this car, its luxurious but also usable. It can deal with any conditions.
I don't believe the world can afford to stop trading for 7 months. The US is 90% a services and sale goods economy, if they don't work for 7 months the US banking system would collapse, and so would the rest of the world. It would be chaos within a month.
After???.... mate he should do it now. With the lack of traffic he would get there astonishingly quick (and fast)
Absolute tool back in the day,rich man's car the tyres were the price of a good second hand run about.When I did finally get to drive one ,I thought it drove like shit hard ride and still loved it and dreamed of owning one
Absoloutley love this ! great choice Calv !!!
How did you even find that car???? Oooh, i am all about nostalgia now! I worked for BMW in the States at the time when they came out and they were really a head turner... We had 840s mostly, but once in a while an enthusiast would come and order the beast - 850csi and that would be quite a scene when it arrived. One comment to you Calvin is that i really like your filming, camera angles man, you bring out exactly what we need to see, and in a very professional way, thank you. I also like your video about the Range Rover Vogue, - 100,000 mile car! Fantastic. Thank you so much.
Great vid bro 👌 please make more vids as I’m on lock down
I absolutely love that model bmw! Way ahead of it’s time!
The visuals are 🔥 great video!
Icon of a car, always loved these.
I remember seeing one once, about 92-93, it was at the lights in nottingham england, this thing just fkd off from the line and made us look standing still!.
Congrats Calvin,such a rare and beautifal car :D
This car is next on my bimmer list. Just got another E38 two weeks ago. Next year want to grab an 850 as well.
Learned to drive in an 840, I would love an 850 and I’d more than likely keep it!! I’ll probably always own a BMW amongst my small collection, looking for a 6 series next, once I’ve had enough of my 3 series coupe that is
I spotted this on your website the other day and I thought to myself you'll do a video on that, nice upload, cheers 👍 Jack
Jack Millin can’t find it on the website mate got a link?
Amazing car, beautiful. Should 100% keep that
Grey leather with the green paint and glass is a nice touch.
Interior looks iridescent.
It's a beautiful motor.
Almost 100k Sir .... smashing it !
Just to clear up some of your understanding about BMW. For those E31 series BMW's An 840i, 840CI had the V8. Any E31 with an 850i, 850Ci, or 850CSi, they were all V12 engines. This also applies to the E32 7 series Saloons E32 series.
Those M parallel Wheels are worth a bit themselves the e31's are one of the best bmws ever made let's not forget the e24 🙌🏾
Yepp, Ive got them on my E34 540i Staggered
This car is one of the most beautiful cars ever
Wow wasn't expecting this car but a very pleasant surprise!
Delivering as always Calvin (y)
Congratulations Bro! Sweet ride, Got me a 750, but want a 850
In its day, this was my dream car. I wish I could afford to buy and run one now as a "fun" car; you're very lucky, I hope you look after this one
Please tell me you have some videos lined up in case we go into lockdown 😫
I absolutely love you for buying that😭😍 such a nice car!
Beautiful car man you got to love the old school beamers😍😍
5:00 that laugh is what it's all about!
nice car mate
That's a beautiful engine note alright!
Koenig max power style body kitted cars must make a come back one day ? A Dakar Yellow 850 CSI used to float around my home time when I was a kid it was a proper eyefull.
Absolutely one of my favourite body styles, that wide body is still insane. I need to finally find grab one. Such a beast ! That thing is gorgeous.
I had a chance to grab a burgundy 850 from a friend for a steal.
I will have one in the near future
Always wanted one.
I just bought it if you want to buy one
insane how good the e31 looked. timeless.
Genuinely passionate about motors legend of a guy
Love the car Calvin. Would love one but I have a 120 mile daily commute so can’t afford the juice! I am content with my 125D M Sport does 60 in 6.5s and I get 52 mpg. So best of both worlds. But love the lines of the 850i. Love your videos mate.
That's mad, just a few days ago I looked on AutoTrader (as I do every day) wondering what these cost now. I decided it's now promoted from the 'when I win the lottery' list to 'hmm, maybe one day' category.
Beemers of that era had so much more about them 👌🏾
Yep!👍 Cool Car! Good Video! 👌 Well Done Calvin Man! ✊ Respect.
Pop up head lights. V12. Beautiful looking car!
im beyond excited..this is my absolute dream car!
