A fantastic car buying experience with Joe and his team at Dick Lovett
Mr Dean Jefferies
The 8 Series Coupé has been a firm success for BMW since the launch of the first generation (E31) back in 1989. A second generation (G15) followed in 2018, with the 8 Series Gran Coupé (G16) debuting in 2019, alongside the Convertible version (G14).
What marks the Gran Coupé out from its two 8 Series family models is size; with its longer wheelbase and extended interior space, this is a larger model, capable of seating five people in comfort.
Across our four BMW dealerships, you can explore the best approved used BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé models for sale. Visit us in Bristol, Hungerford (near Andover), Melksham (near Bath) and Swindon, where our BMW experts can arrange a test drive on any available model, and explain our latest finance deals.
Sporty driving dynamics, sharp acceleration, precision handling, superior interior comfort, and top-class tech — a used BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé is a smart choice for drivers who want luxurious practicality without compromising on performance.
Inspired by the globally successful 8 Series, the Gran Coupé is a relatively new addition to the BMW model line-up. Launched in 2019, the Gran Coupé offered a more spacious version of the 8 Series Coupé – a sporty model but with a longer wheelbase (by 201mm) than the 8 Series. That extra length, together with a higher roof line, means driver and passengers get increased head and leg room.
A bigger car means more room for passengers, and here’s where the appeal of a used BMW 8 Gran Coupé becomes clear. For those who want a car that can accommodate the family, and also carry it off in style, here it is – the Gran Coupé is a four-door model (the 8 Series Coupé just a two) with five seats, though that middle space in the rear bench is best suited for a child. The boot has a 440-litre capacity.
Generous spacing aside, the interior is classic BMW design – understated, and high-quality. Merino leather upholstery provides that plush feel, while multifunction seats — fitted for the driver and front seat passenger – allows you to adjust to find the perfect seating position, whether that’s when driving, or relaxing.
This being a BMW, the 8 Series Gran Coupé comes with the excellent iDrive infotainment system. The 10.3-inch high-resolution display can be controlled in a number of ways — by touching the screen, using the iDrive controller, by voice command, or even by gesture control.
BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant can help with route-planning, while the BMW Digital Key enables you to use your smartphone, if your device is compatible, to open your car. Unlock, lock, and start the car without using the actual key, and give authorisation to family members to do the same; no more sharing a solitary key.
*Key features of a used BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé could include:
For a four-door car, the Gran Coupé looks surprisingly sleek; clever design and engineering means this, unmistakably, retains the soul of a coupé, with its low-slung body shape and sloping roofline. Exterior highlights include the BMW kidney ‘Iconic Glow’ front grille (depending on model), LED ambient lighting, and — on certain models — an electric panoramic glass sunroof. This is an option, so some used BMW 8 Gran Coupé cars will have this eye-catching feature fitted.
Driving an 8 Series Gran Coupé is a joy. Performance varies depending on model variant, with the entry-level 840i’s BMW TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder petrol engine capable of delivering 333 hp, 0-62 mph in 5.4 seconds, and hitting a top speed of 155mph. Adaptive M suspension ensures ride comfort, adjusting for road surface and driving conditions.

Performance, power, comfort, and sophistication — a used BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé is a popular model. If this sporty five-seater is on your shortlist, you’ll find a great selection of used models for sale across Dick Lovett’s four BMW dealerships.
Our team of BMW experts, located at Bristol, Hungerford, Melksham (near Bath) and Swindon, can show you around available models and arrange a test drive for you, so you can see for yourself how a BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé drives, handles, and feels. We think you’ll be impressed.
If you’re making a decision to buy, be sure to choose the right model for you. There are two in the 8 Series Gran Coupé range — the 840i, and the M850i, plus the M8 Competition Gran Coupé.
M Sport comes as standard on all used BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé models, so the base model 840i already has a high level of spec, including 20-inch M light alloy wheels, M Sport leather steering wheel, M Sport differential, M Sport brake, front and rear heated seats, and M Aerodynamics package.
There are optional packs available to further equip the 840i; some used 8 Series Gran Coupé models for sale may already come with one or both of these fitted. You may pay a higher price for this, but you’ll benefit from additional features.
The 840i M Sport Gran Coupé Comfort trim has the Comfort Plus pack, which includes Soft-close doors, Ventilated Front Seats, Electric Rear Blinds, Heat Comfort System, Roller Sunblinds, and Anthracite Alcantara Headlining.
The Technology trim has the Technology Plus pack, which adds Driving Assistant Professional, Parking Assistant Plus, and the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Audio System.
The 840i is rear-wheel drive, powered by a six-cylinder petrol engine, with eight-speed automatic Steptronic transmission. Combined fuel consumption is up to 33.2 mpg (WLTP).
If you crave a more powerful version, the all-wheel drive M850i won’t disappoint. Fitted with BMW’s M TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder petrol engine, it’s capable of 530 hp and can hit 0-62mph in a rapid 3.9 seconds. This extra power sees fuel economy take a dip, though, falling to 25.7mpg (WLTP) in comparison to the 840i.
The Ultimate Pack is available on the M850i xDrive, so some used BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé models may already have had this added from new by a previous owner. Features include M Adaptive Suspension Pro, Laserlights, M Lights Shadowline, Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, Driving Assistant Professional, and Parking Assistant Plus. Integral Active Steering comes as standard on all M850i xDrive models.
There’s also the BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupé, which is more powerful still than the M850i. This also has the TwinPower Turbo 8-cylinder petrol engine and delivers 625 hp, with a 0-62mph time of just 3.2 seconds. The M Pro Pack – which includes the M Driver’s Pack, which boosts top speed to 190mph — and M Carbon Pack are options on the M8 Competition, so check the spec of any used model to see if these have been added.
