2024 BMW R18 Transcontinental Tourer Petrol Manual

Description

I’ve had this BMW R18 for a few months now and honestly, it’s been a joy to ride. It’s not just a bike – it’s a proper long-distance cruiser with that classic boxer engine, and the gravity blue metallic finish looks great in the sunlight.

The tech is solid too – adaptive headlight, active cruise control, hill start, tyre pressure monitoring, and all that. Daytime riding lights and a lockable fuel filler cap make it feel more like a proper touring machine. I’ve also got the central locking system and safety features like pretensioners – feels safe and reliable.

I bought it through Vertu Motors in Kirriemuir, Angus, which is a bit of a local gem. They’ve got a good track record, especially with their certified used bikes. Every one goes through a proper technical check, has a full service history, and comes with a two-year warranty and emergency cover across Europe.

It’s been well maintained, and I’ve only done a few hundred miles so far – still in great shape. I’m not selling it because I need the cash, just because I’m moving to a different area and I’m looking for something more manageable.

It’s a solid bike, and if you’re thinking about a long ride or a weekend getaway, this one might just fit your style. Price is £13,491 – not a huge ask for what it is.

If you’re interested, I’ll be happy to chat. No pressure, just sharing something I’ve been enjoying.
