  • Basheer Zaheer of Invictus Motors presents the BMW 640D. The BMW 6 Series is a range of grand tourers produced by BMW since 1976. It is the successor to the E9 Coupé and is currently in its fourth generation as of 2022.
    Here we have the third generation F06/F12/F13 6 Series debuted in 2011 as a coupé and convertible, and added a four-door coupé body style (known as the Gran Coupé) in 2012. When the F06/F12/F13 6 Series ended production, the "Gran Coupé"/coupé/convertible models have been shifted into the more upmarket BMW 8 Series (G15) nameplate. The fourth generation 6 Series, the G32 6 Series, debuted in mid-2017 and is offered only as a fastback body style to complement the BMW 5 Series (G30) sedan/wagon.

    This is near exactly the type of BMW 6 series (coupe) I have been trying to find; Black body, black leather interior, operating roof, 2 door, automatic gear box. The only problem is that I just can't find any second handers. It just seems so rare.

    Should you buy a 640d? YES! I have the GranCoupe. I have had it remapped to 400bhp & 800NM and I can assure you it is a monster. I paid £28k for mine (67) with every spec ticked from new (incl) pan roof!
    I took the car on a rally through Europe with serious motors, (M5’s, RS6, S5, C63) you name it! & every other owner commented on the performance of the car. This isn’t a over dramatic/biased opinion, the car is a serious weapon.
    During our stint in Germany as mine has been de-restricted I managed to hit 180 and believe me I actually think it would of kept going! (All caught of video)

I do still want one but the possibility of a rod bearing or chain failing is daunting. If it were to fail having the 640i (n55) would probably work out to be a lot cheaper.

    £170 VED ? No, not yet anyway. Cars with list price over £40k pay an additional premium of over £300 for the first five years after first year of tax - so a car registered and taxed in April 2017 would not be paying £170 until April 2023.
