Gulf Weekly Sleek and luxurious


When you sit behind the wheel of a BMW and its efficient German engine starts to roar, everything else in the world fades away.

The BMW 750Li is a stunning marvel of engineering that boasts not only a generous amount of power but a whole heap of comfort too.

Since the 7 Series is the brand’s flagship model it epitomises the cutting-edge technology and refinement that BMW is known for.

The exterior of this sleek and luxurious model is aggressively styled and, as a result, it turns more than a few heads as you roll along on 18 inch alloy wheels.

The interior is meticulously designed for comfort and the colour combination of the plush leather upholstery compliments the fine finishes of the paneling.

The seating is sublime and offers both driver and passengers the chance to move their seat in a vast number of positions.

Inside the cockpit, everything is clearly laid out and simple to use, a real feat considering this mean machine packs almost as much high-tech gadgetry as Bill Gates’ summer home.

The model I drove featured rearview cameras, satellite navigation, multi-media interface, MP3 capability, Bluetooth, duel AC, a rear entertainment system with screens embedded in the head restraints and a number of other impressive features which can be controlled via BMW’s iDrive system.

Under the bonnet of the BD47,000 750Li is a 4-litre twin turbo V8 engine that jumps from 0-100km in just a hair over five seconds.

The luxury sedan handles like a dream come true and delivers a fun and exciting driving experience, in my opinion it’s definitely worth the price tag. 

It sticks to the road like glue even while cornering at high speed and the responsive steering lets you know you’re in complete control.
 
Standard safety features include stability and traction control, active front head restraints, antilock brakes and a plethora of airbags.
 
If you’re looking for a car with real character, look no further.
