Special to some, I see an Orient Blue 'S' reg 1998 840Ci Sport every day. Same wheels too by the looks of it but better mirrors and deeper front bumper. Sam.

That blue one does look nice.
Very neat looking motors those 8-series Beemers. Look like they'd make an excellent Grand Tourer.
Of petrol stations mainly, but they'd do the job well.
As for the vintage, according to the DVLA records, it appears to be a Rover 1025.
A 1929 example, so if it can keep going another 7 years, it'll be getting its telegram from King Charles.

They look abit aftermatket to me! 😁 The Saint I wouldn't know if they are "aftermatket" but they are certainly aftermarket. They are Rondell 58s and are 18" diameter, 9" wide at the front and 10" wide at the rear. The original "Throwing Star" alloys are nice enough wheels but they are 17" diameter and 8" wide at the front and 9" wide at the rear. I prefer the Rondells to the original wheels and they also came with the car. Sam.
