7 BMW 840i lots for sale across 7+ Copart locations – model years 2022–2026, avg. mileage 25,000 mi. 29% clean title, 71% salvage; Water/Flood is the top damage (43%). Bids start at $250, and value here rides on originality and engine condition, not a make-wide median.
The 840i is the V8 entry point into BMW's E31 grand-touring coupe, built as a lighter, simpler alternative to the V12 850i from the same era. Water/Flood leads the damage tally at 43%. A tidy example with a healthy engine is a genuinely usable classic, while a rough one is mostly a parts source at this point. Most of these stay in the US, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
The early M60 V8 in this car is the one to research before you bid – BMW built these blocks with Nikasil-coated cylinder liners that reacted badly to the high-sulfur gasoline sold in the US through the mid-1990s, and prematurely worn bores are a known failure mode on unlucky examples. Ask whether the engine's ever been checked for cylinder wear or already rebuilt with updated liners. Beyond that, the E31's age shows in the same places as its V12 sibling: the self-leveling rear suspension's hydraulic units sag over time, and window regulators, climate control and dash electronics all commonly need attention on a car this old. Confirm the timing chain guides haven't rattled loose, since a full service on this engine is a bigger job than it looks. If the shell's too rough to save, the non-repairable 840i lots still go for the drivetrain and trim.
Buying is quick: register free – no dealer license – set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
Note: ACV and damage data come from the original auction listing. Always check the condition and title yourself before you bid.
