This drop-top Beamer is powered by a whopping 4.9-litre V8 petrol engine, producing around 395bhp.

And, it looks stunning in Titanium Silver metallic paint, with two-tone red and black leather upholstery in the cabin and a body-coloured painted dashboard. 

It's had three owners from new, the most recent of which was the lucky keeper for the past 16 years. 

The BMW Z8 shot to stardom after featuring in the 1999 James Bond film movie The World is Not Enough, with Pierce Brosnan behind the wheel.

, an online auction site, are handling the sale, and said: "The Titanium Silver metallic paintwork is described by the seller as being in excellent overall condition, and paint depth readings suggest it is entirely original.

"There are a few minor front-end stone chips, all of which are noted to have been touched in, but elsewhere, the finish presents very well, having been recently ceramic coated."

This comes after a stunning Ford Capri in "outstanding" condition was up for sale at auction - and set to go under the hammer for an eye-watering price.

Plus, a rare "immaculate" Ford Sierra left in a garage for 20 years is up for auction after a £9,000 revamp.
