RE: [bmw] Buying an 88 735i - what to watch out for
That was the 1st year for the 750. The 735 was around since 1986. If
everything works now then good maintenance should be all that is needed.
Check for transmission seal leaks and CV Joint boot integrity. Change all
the fluids including the brake/clutch fluid then keep them up to date.
