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.
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..
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
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.
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!
That sound ❤️ Those front lights remind of the lights on my bro’s Supra from the mid 90’s 👌🏼
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.
Please dyno this Calvin! Be great to know how much power its pushing out now all these years later :)
Good on you mate. One of the best and coolest cars to ever been produced.
Have fun and godspeed to you
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.
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.
Timeless classic in my eyes.
Been watching you for 2 years now can't wait to see you hit a 100K subscribers.
Another great car and great review! Always love watching your videos and sound like a very genuine car dealer!
good video calvin nice to see you working so hard and killing this youtube game 😎 keep it up bro
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.
Loving the bmw content lately mate 🙏 classics aswel 🔥 keep doing what your doing bud 👌
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🤣
Not been watching your channel to long but now I'm hooked. BMW 850I one of my dream cars... Keep it up
Loving the channel. Good mix of cars I'm really interested in. Keep up the good work!
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.
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 ?
Saw my first 850i at Earl's Court back in the day. I used most of my film reel on it. Lovely car.
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
This is one of my all time favourite cars. No other BMW comes close to how beautiful this is
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.
Your enthusiasm for motors is awesome, makes your videos addictive! 👍
We're all self isolating whereas Calvin is risking it all for us!
What a gentlemen ❤
Omg one of my favourite bmw's 😍 absolute machine!! Best looking bmw of 1990s
Always loved this car. I was born in 87 too and rarely I’ve seen this car.
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!
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
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
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 👌🏻
What a beauty of a car that is calv. Always been on of my favourite bmw's
Wow looks fantastic. Looks in wonderful condition. Good find.
Simple lines and just a gorgeous body! BMW definitely has created some beautiful cars but this one is one of the most beautiful!
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!
Lovely machine. Keep up the the good work Calv!
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😂
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 ,
The visuals are 🔥 great video!
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.
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!!
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
Love your content and what a character you are. Loving your content t man keep it up
Icon of a car, always loved these.
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 👍🏻
I absolutely love that model bmw! Way ahead of it’s time!
Man how cool were the 850's with pillarless Windows ! Still looks the business. 👍
This car is one of the most beautiful cars ever
My 1997 840Ci Sport 4.4 V8 has been my daily driver for nearly 8 years now and has never given me any trouble, just loads of pleasure. It also sounds much better than the V12 and is just as quick. Buy a good one, look after it and you will be impressed...
That sounds amazing, I’m happy for you! Do you still own it? And could you elaborate on why you think the V8 sounds better?
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,🙂🙂
I absolutely love you for buying that😭😍 such a nice car!
insane how good the e31 looked. timeless.
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!.
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
Wow wasn't expecting this car but a very pleasant surprise!
Delivering as always Calvin (y)
Congrats Calvin,such a rare and beautifal car :D
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.
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
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
Genuinely passionate about motors legend of a guy
Great vid bro 👌 please make more vids as I’m on lock down
Absoloutley love this ! great choice Calv !!!
Almost 100k Sir .... smashing it !
Loved this car when i was a kid. The front end always reminded me of the Knight Rider car.
That was my thought 👌👍
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 :)
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.
That's a beautiful engine note alright!
im beyond excited..this is my absolute dream car!
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
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
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)
Amazing car, beautiful. Should 100% keep that
5:00 that laugh is what it's all about!
nice car mate
Grey leather with the green paint and glass is a nice touch.
Interior looks iridescent.
It's a beautiful motor.
One of the best looking BMW ever made!
Beautiful car man you got to love the old school beamers😍😍
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?
Congratulations Bro! Sweet ride, Got me a 750, but want a 850
Great vid - love the 850i! What camera equipment are you using? (does anybody know) The visuals looked 🔥
Don't know about everyone else, but since young I've always admired the 850i M since young.
Proportions or whatever, or maybe the 2 bricks that pop up at night, most non aerodynamic headlights... 🤣 🤣 🤣
Love it
Yep!👍 Cool Car! Good Video! 👌 Well Done Calvin Man! ✊ Respect.
This car is next on my bimmer list. Just got another E38 two weeks ago. Next year want to grab an 850 as well.
That's a lovely looking motor, and it looks to be in pretty good condition as well.
Edit: Actually that looks to be in GREAT condition!
Great video mate. Love the personality proper chav 😂
I'd Love to Own Such a Car🚗
Thanks Allot For The Video The Retractable Headlights are Cool.
The 850 Electronical Ajustable Steering Wheel is neat too.
A Popular Car.
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.
You could make a video about a mobility scooter and I'd still love it. Nice one Cal
